A person is standing at the edge of the water and looking out at the ocean (see figure). The height of the person's eyes above the water is h = 1.5 m, and the radius of the Earth is R = 6.38 x 106 m. (a) How far is it to the horizon? In other words, what is the distance d from the person's eyes to the horizon? (Note: At the horizon the angle between the line of sight and the radius of the earth is 90°.) (b) Express this distance in miles.
In the sum A + B = C, vector A has a magnitude of 12.0 m and is angled 40.0 ◦ counterclockwise from the +x direction, and vector C has magnitude of 15.0 m and is angled 20.0 ◦ counterclockwise from the −x direction. What are (a) the magnitude and (b) the angle (relative to +x) of B? please do a detailed working out with drawing because i dont understand this
Given points (r1, θ1) and (r2, θ2) in polar coordinates,obtain a general formula for the distance between them. Simplifyit as much as possible using the identity cos2θ + sin2θ = 1.Hint: Write the expressions for the two points in Cartesiancoordinates and substitute into the usual distance formula.
Can you help me, i need a shortcut on how to know when should i use cosine or sine.here's the problem and the solution One morning, Connie walks from her house to go to a store that is 500 ft, S 40o W from her house. She starts walking 120 ft, SW; then continues walking 100 ft, 10o S of E; then sees a friend who is 700 ft, 30o N of E from where she is. What is her friend’s location, (magnitude and direction) relative to her house? (Ans. 667.54 ft, 21.79o N of E) From her friend’s location, how far and in what direction should Connie walk to finally get to the store? (Ans. 1133.08 ft, 33.83o S of W)
