The answer is True. Triangulation is a method of finding the location of an object or a point by forming triangles to it from two points that are known already.

Thank you for posting you question. Please feel free to ask me another.

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

The above statement<u> is true </u>

Triangulation is a method of finding the location of an object based on measurements made from two other locations

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Triangulation is a method of determining the location of an object or a body relative to measurements made from two other locations. The law of sines may be used to solve triangulation problems</u></em>.
  • <em><u>Triangulation locates something's location based on the location of other thing. Geologists use triangulation in several ways to determine location, such as to locate earthquakes, and also to determine the location a spacecraft.</u></em>
  • Triangulation<em><u> involves measuring only angles to a point from known points at the ends of a fixed base line.</u></em> Therefore, the law of sines is importance when using this method to determine distances of a point relative to others.

Suppose that a barometer was made using oil with rho=900 kg/m3. What is the height of the barometer at atmospheric pressure?
rewona [7]

Hey there!

The pressure under a liquid column can be , calculated using  the following formula :

P = p x g x h  

P atm = 1.013 x 10⁵ Pa

g = 9.8 m/s²

h = ?

h =  P / ( p x g ) =

h= ( 1.013 x 10⁵ Pa ) / ( 900 x 9.8 ) =

h = ( 1.013 x 10⁵ ) / ( 8820 ) =

h = 11.48 m ≈  11.50 m

Hope this helps!

The small piston of a hydraulic lift has a cross-sectional of 3 00 cm2 and its large piston has a cross-sectional area of 200 cm
Nesterboy [21]

Q: The small piston of a hydraulic lift has a cross-sectional of 3.00 cm2 and its large piston has a cross-sectional area of 200 cm2. What downward force of magnitude must be applied to the small piston for the lift to raise a load whose weight is Fg = 15.0 kN?

Answer:

225 N

Explanation:

From Pascal's principle,

F/A = f/a ...................... Equation 1

Where F = Force exerted on the larger piston, f = force applied to the smaller piston, A = cross sectional area of the larger piston, a = cross sectional area of the smaller piston.

Making f the subject of the equation,

f = F(a)/A ..................... Equation 2

Given: F = 15.0 kN = 15000 N, A = 200 cm², a = 3.00 cm².

Substituting into equation 2

f = 15000(3/200)

f = 225 N.

Hence the downward force that must be applied to small piston = 225 N

yuradex [85]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Formula E=F/C also E=V/d

In this case use the second formula; E=V/d

Data given; E=4N/C d=8m

So v=E X d

     V=4x8=32V

In an attempt to impress its friends, an acrobatic beetle runs and jumps off the bottom step of a flight of stairs. The step is
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

0.3677181864 m

Explanation:

u = Velocity = 1.5 m/s

\theta = Angle = 20°

y = -20 cm

Velocity components

u_x=ucos\theta\\\Rightarrow u_x=1.5cos20\\\Rightarrow u_x=1.40953\ m/s

u_y=usin\theta\\\Rightarrow u_y=1.5sin20\\\Rightarrow u_y=0.51303\ m/s

Acceleration components

a_x=0

a_y=-9.81\ m/s^2

y=u_yt+\dfrac{1}{2}a_yt^2\\\Rightarrow -0.2=0.51303\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times -9.81t^2\\\Rightarrow 4.905t^2-0.51303t-0.2=0

t=\frac{-\left(-0.51303\right)+\sqrt{\left(-0.51303\right)^2-4\cdot \:4.905\left(-0.2\right)}}{2\cdot \:4.905}, \frac{-\left(-0.51303\right)-\sqrt{\left(-0.51303\right)^2-4\cdot \:4.905\left(-0.2\right)}}{2\cdot \:4.905}\\\Rightarrow t=0.26088, -0.15629

Time taken is 0.26088 seconds

x=u_xt+\dfrac{1}{2}a_xt^2\\\Rightarrow x=1.40953\times 0.26088\\\Rightarrow x=0.3677181864\ m

The distance the beetle travels on the ground is 0.3677181864 m

The three forces acting on a hot-air balloon that is moving vertically are its weight, the force due to air resistance and the u
Aleksandr [31]
Let
upthrust = T
weight = W = mg
Air resistance = F

When balloon is descending, air resistance acts upwards (positive)
By Newton's first law, the net force on the balloon is zero, or
T+F-W=0......................(1)

Let w=weight of material dumped so that balloon now travels upwards at constant speed.
Air resistance acts against motion, namely downwards.
The Newton's equation now reads
T-F-(W-w)=0................(2)

Subtract (2) from (1)
T+F-W - (T-F-(W-w)) = 0
Solve for w
w=2F, or
the WEIGHT of material to be released equals twice the resistance of air.
