    Trigonometry Word problem with angles of elevation

    So where I had 25 degrees it should be 28.5, and 65 should be 61.5 degrees, correct?

    Trigonometry Word problem with angles of elevation

    I know where to put the lower triangle, but where would the top angle of evaluation, 28.5 degrees, go? Here's what I drew so far. http://s288.photobucket.com/user/ACE6911/media/PreCalculus%20questions/precalculusquestion85_zpse8fde88e.jpg.html?sort=3&o=0

    Trigonometry Word problem with angles of elevation

    Where did you get 3.5° and where would the 28.5° angle go?

    Trigonometry Word problem with angles of elevation

    Homework Statement An Antenna that is 90 feet high is on top of a hill. From a point at the base of the hill, the angles of elevation to the top and bottom of the antenna are 28.5° and 25°, respectively. To the nearest whole number of feet, how high is the hill? A, 189 ft B, 213 ft C...

    Maximum acceleration, frequency and mechanical energy of a spring

    It was in my physics book, the square root of k over m times the square root of A squared minus x squared. Is the amplitude of motion the same as x, .1 or is it .01? I just forgot to put it into parentheses.

    Maximum acceleration, frequency and mechanical energy of a spring

    I found v=+ or -√(k/m)√A^2 -x^2 with A equals the amplitude of motion but what's the amplitude of motion?

    Maximum acceleration, frequency and mechanical energy of a spring

    1. When a 0.20-kg block is suspended from a vertically hanging spring, it stretches the spring from its original length of 0.050m to 0.060m. The same block is attached to the same spring and placed on a horizontal, friction-less surface. The block is then pulled so that the spring stretches to...

    Force experienced by a tennis ball

    I feel dumb now, our teacher likes to round and one of the answer choices is 98. Thanks guys.

    Force experienced by a tennis ball

    So then if that's the case then 1.95 kgm/s=Ft and t equals .020 I would get 97.5 for force but that isn't an answer choice. What am I doing wrong?

    Force experienced by a tennis ball

    It goes from .975 kgm/s to -.975 kgm/s so it changes by 1.95 kgm/s.

    Force experienced by a tennis ball

    A .065-kg tennis ball moving to the right with a speed of 15 m/s is stuck by a tennis racket, causing it to move to the left with a speed of 15 m/s. If the ball remains in contact with the racket for 0.020s, what is the magnitude of the average force experienced by the ball? F=mv/t I think...

    Angular displacement of a curve ball

    Alright so I multiply 5.5 by 2*pi and I got 34.557 then I multiply that by 0.6 and got 20.7, which is close to 21 rad. However it asked for angular displacement of the baseball as it's travels from the pitcher to the catcher. So how would I use Magnus effect to find the angular displacement?
