A radio station obtains a permit to increase the height of their radio tower on Queen Anne Hill by no more than 100 feet. You are the head of the Queen Anne Community Group and one of your members asks you to make sure that the radio station does not exceed the limits of the permit. After finding a relatively flat area nearby the tower (not necessarily the same altitude as the bottom of the tower), and standing some unknown distance away from the tower, you make three measurements all at the same height above sea level. You observe that the top of the old tower makes an angle of 39° above level. You move "130 feet" away from the original measurement and observe that the old top of the tower now makes an angle of 34° above level. Finally, after the new construction is complete, you observe that the new top of the tower, from the same point as the second measurement was made, makes an angle of 40° above the horizontal. All three measurements are made at the same height above sea level and are in line with the tower. Find the height of the addition to the tower to the nearest foot.

We all use gps today, even if we don't drive yet. i bet you have been in the car with a parent and they have asked you to get out your phone to find a specific location. in your car, on the phone, you are using a very sophisticated technology. gps satellites circle the earth twice a day in a very precise orbit and transmit signal information to earth. gps receivers take this information and use trilateration to calculate the user's exact location. essentially, the gps receiver compares the time a signal was transmitted by a satellite with the time it was received. the time difference tells the gps receiver how far away the satellite is. now, with distance measurements from a few more satellites, the receiver can determine the user's position and display it on the unit's electronic map. what type of signal is utilized by the gps satellite?

Aplayground slide is 8.80 ft long and makes an angle of 25.0° with the horizontal. a 63.0-kg child, initially at the top, slides all the way down to the bottom of the slide. (a) choosing the bottom of the slide as the reference configuration, what is the system's potential energy when the child is at the top and at the bottom of the slide? what is the change in potential energy as the child slides from the top to the bottom of the slide? (include the sign of the value in your answer.)
