an aircraft is flying at a height of 3400 m above the ground.if the angle subtended at a given

Expert Answer

The aircraft takes 10s to go from one point (say A) to the other (say B) and AB subtands an angle of 30o at the point of observation (say O) .So, ABO forms a triangle.Now let OC be perpendicualr bisector drawn from O to AB(i.e. actually the height).

Then in right trianle, OAC

AC = OC tan 15o = 3400 x 0.2679 = 911 m

so, AB = 2 x 911 = 1822 m

Now, the speed of aircraft , v = AB / t = 1822 / 10 = 182.2 m/s.

A baseball is hit by a bat and given a velocity of 40.0m/s at an angle of 30 degree above the horizontal. The height of the ball above the ground upon impact with the bat is 1.0 m  a) what maximum height above the ground does the wall reached b) a feilder is 110.0 m from home plate with the ball is hit and the balls trajectory is directly at home if he begins running at the moment the ball is hit and catches the ball. when it is still 3.0 m above the ground. How long does he run before catching the ball. C) how fast does he have to run in order to catch the ball
