Use trigonometry to find the distance of each boat from the cliff's base and subtracting both distances gives a distance of 40.5 meters between them to 1 d.p.

Can a graph ever have a straight vertical line on a speed graph?

In a speed graph, a straight vertical line represents an infinite speed, which is not physically possible. Such a line would imply that an object is covering a distance instantaneously over a finite time interval, violating the principles of physics. Therefore, a speed graph cannot have a straight vertical line.


What is the definition of vertical distance?

Vertical distance is the measurement of the space between two points in a straight line perpendicular to the ground or a horizontal plane. It is commonly used in geometry, physics, and engineering to describe the height or depth between objects or locations in a vertical direction.


The distance from point a to b on a grid?

The answer depends on the grid. On the taxicab grid, which was studied by Minkowski, the distance is the sum of the vertical and horizontal distances between a and b. See, for example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxicab_geometryIf, a and b have horizontal and vertical coordinates which are, respectively, (xa, ya) and (xb, yb) then the grid distance is abs(xa - ya) + abs(xb - yb).


What is a vertical force?

The forces acting in a vertical direction or in a straight direction is called vertical force


The x-axis and y-axis are respectively the?

horizontal and vertical axes


What is meant by x and y forces?

Horizontal and Vertical forces respectively.


Why is it not possible for any part of the distance-time graph of a body to be a straight-line segment parallel to the distance axis?

BecAuse that would mean it is going an infinite speed. The slope of a distance time graph is the objects velocity or speed. If there is a line parallel to the distance axis, there is a vertical line. The slope of a vertical line is infinite. It is not possible to go an infinite speed.


Can a straight angle be vertical?

yes.


What is a vertical edge?

A vertical edge is A line that go straight up and down


What is the vertical word?

for example a straight line.(is it straight up and down)


A graph shows distance on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axisif the speed is steadily increasing what will the line representing speed look like on the graph?

If a graph shows distance on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis, and the speed is steadily increasing, the line representing speed will be a straight line.


Which part of a cube is vertical?

Every edge that is pointing straight up and down is vertical.
