The shadow of a vertical tower is 58 feet long when the angles of elevation of the sun is 36 degrees. what is the height of the tower to the nearest foot?

tan(36) = H/58 where H is the height of the tower. So H = 58*tan(36) = 42 feet.


Where does California get its water from?

from the water tower


A point is 200 feet from a tower The angle of elevation to the top is 18 degrees and the angle of elevation to the bottom is 15 degrees I think the tower is on a hill how tall is the tower?

Consider the following ._ . . . , ______ . , / . , / . , / . ______________/ Dotted line is to the top of the tower, and has an 18 degree angle with the ground Comma line is to the bottom of the tower, and has a 15 degree angle with the ground Visualize the two triangle that exist here: ._ . | . | . , | . , | . , | . , | . _________________| In both cases, the base of the triangle is 200 ft. The height of the dotted triangle is given as sin(18) * 200 = 61.80 The height of the comma triangle is given as sin(15) * 200 = 51.76 The top of the tower is represented by the dotted triangle, so it is 61.80ft above our observation point The bottom of the tower is represented by the comma triangle, so it is 51.76ft above our observation point. The height of the tower is the difference between these heights. 61.80 - 51.76 = 10.04ft The tower is a massive 10ft tall!

How do you increase water pressure in a model water tower?

Water pressure in real towers is created by the height of the tower above the surface of the earth, and the diameter of the pipe supplying the water to the output. The same should hold true for a model water tower.


Which water tower will supply more pressure 100 gallon or 1000 gallon?

Its the height of the tower, not the size that determines pressure.


How much work is done by the pump to fill 1.0 x 10 3 -kg tower?

To determine the work done by the pump to fill a tower with a mass of 1.0 x 10³ kg, we need to know the height the water is being lifted and the force exerted by the pump. The work done can be calculated using the formula ( W = F \cdot d ), where ( F ) is the force (equal to the weight of the water) and ( d ) is the height. Without the specific height or additional details, we can't calculate a numerical answer, but the work done will be proportional to both the weight of the water and the height it is pumped.
