A rocket travels vertically at a speed of 1200 km/h. The rocket is tracked through a telescope by an observer located 16 km from the launching pad. Find the rate at which the angle between the telescope and the ground is increasing 3 min after lift-off. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth rad/hr.

An archer fish spies a meal of a grasshopper sitting on a long stalk of grass at the edge of the pond in which he is swimming. The fish is to successfully spit at and strike the grasshopper, which is 0.200 m away horizontally and 0.435 m above his mouth. What angle (in degrees) above the horizontal must he spit? Assume vfy = 0.

An airplane is sighted due cast from a radar station at an elevation of 40 degrees on a height of 8000m and later at an elevation of 35 degrees, and height 5500m in a direction of E70'S. IF it is descending uniformly, find the angle of descent if the time between two observations is 45 S.

I am pretty sure that this can be solved by adding 57 to mg cos(theta) but when I enter -59.196 into the problem it says that it is incorrect.
The Voyager 1 spacecraft has traveled farther than any other man-made object, and inAugust 2012 it entered into interstellar space when it was a distanceof 1.8 * 1013 m from Earth. How many hours elapsed between thetime a command was sent from Earth and the time the commandwas received by Voyager when it entered interstellar space?
A golfer on level ground attempts to drive a golf ball across a 50 meter wide pond by hitting the ball so that it travels initially at 25m/s at an angle of 45 degrees to the horizontal plane. How far will the golf ball travel?
You have been hired by the defense attorney as an expert witness in a lawsuit. The plaintiff is someone who just returned from being a passenger on the first orbital space tourist flight. Based on a travel brochure offered by the space travel company, the plaintiff expected to be able to see the Great Wall of China from his orbital height of 200 km above the Earth’s surface. He was unable to do so, and is now demanding that his fare be refunded and to receive additional financial compensation to cover his great disappointment. Construct the basis for an argument for the defense that shows that his expectation of seeing the Great Wall from orbit was unreasonable. The Wall is 7 m wide at its widest point and the normal visual acuity of the human eye is 3 x 10-4 rad. (Visual acuity is the smallestsubtended angle that an object can make at the eye and still be recognized; the subtended angle in radians is the ratio of the width of an object to the distance of the object from your eyes.)

An airplane is flying west at 500 ft/sec at a constant altitude of 4000 ft and a searchlight on the ground lies directly under the path of the plane. If the light is to be kept on the plane, how fast is the searchlight revolving when the airline distance of the plane from the searchlight is 2000 ft due east?
