Radio Antenna A short-wave radio antenna is supported by two guy wires, 165 ft and 180 ft long. Each wire is attached to the top of the antenna and anchored to the ground at two anchor points on opposite sides of the antenna. The shorter wire makes an angle of 67 with the ground. How far apart are the anchor points?
Radius of the Moon As viewed from the earth, the angle subtended by the full moon is 0.518. Use this information and the fact that the distance AB from the earth to the moon is 236,900 mi to find the radius of the moon.
Circumference of the Earth The Greek mathematician Eratosthenes ca.276-195 B.C. measured the circumference of the earth from the following observations. He noticed that on a certain day the sun shone directly down a deep well in Syene modern Aswan. At the same time in Alexandria, 500 miles north on the same meridian, the rays of the sun shone at an angle of 7.2 to the zenith. Use this information and the figure to find the radius and circumference of the earth.
Guy Wire A guy wire runs from the ground to a cell tower. The wire is attached to the cell tower 150 feet above the ground. The angle formed between the wire and the ground is 43 (see figure). (a) How long is the guy wire? (b) How far from the base of the tower is the guy wire anchored to the ground?
Distance to the moon To find the distance to the sun as in Exercise 67, we needed to know the distance to the moon. Here is a way to estimate the distance When the moon is seen at its zenith at a point A on the earth, it is observed to be at the horizon from point B see the following figure. Points A and B are 6155 mi apart, and the radius of the earth is 3960 mi. a Find the angle in degree. b Estimate the distance from point A to the moon.
