How do you calculate the angle of deflection of a plumb line assuming that it is pulled downwards by the mass of the earth 5.89 x 1024 and pulled horizontally by mountain mass of 6.399 x 1015 kg?

There is not enough information to answer the question. You need to know the distances between the centres of mass of the plumb bob and the two large masses. The plumb bob may be treated as a point particle, and the distance to the centre of the earth can be approximated by the average radius, but that still leaves the distance to the centre of the mountain.

How you calculate the speed of light in water?
Assuming the speed of light in air is already known (it is close to the speed of light in a vacuum), you might check how the light refracts when it changes from air to water (at what angle), and then use Snell's Law.
How many amps is 145VA?
To calculate amps from VA, you can use the formula: Amps = VA / Volts. Assuming the standard voltage in residential settings is 120V, then 145VA / 120V = 1.21A. Therefore, 145VA is approximately equal to 1.21 amps.
Which magnetic instrument helps people find their way?
A compass functions by using the magnetism of a planets poles in order to guide an individual. The point of a compass (assuming it hasn't been tampered with) should always point towards the North - allowing an individual to calculate their heading.
2 500 watt lights 100ft extension cord calculate amps?
To calculate the amperage, use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. Assuming standard US voltage of 120V, the total power consumption of the lights is 1000 watts. Thus, Amps = 1000 watts / 120 volts = 8.33 amps. Be cautious not to exceed the extension cord's amperage rating to prevent overheating and potential fire hazards.
What is the complementary strand to the following sequence UTTCTTT?
Assuming RNA (U): TUUGUUU Assuming DNA: TAAGAAA
What of the following quantities are zero for a projectile motion during flight?
During projectile motion, the vertical velocity is zero at the highest point of the trajectory. However, the horizontal velocity is constant throughout the flight and never zero assuming no external forces act horizontally. The acceleration due to gravity is always acting vertically downwards and is never zero during the flight of a projectile.
If the streaks make an angle of 45 degrees what does this tell you about the relative speed of the car and the falling rain?
They are the same, assuming the rain is falling directly downwards.
How do you calculate the radius?
Assuming you know the circumference (C) it's... (C/Pi)/2.
How do you calculate a cicle's area?
Assuming you know the radius - the formula is Pi x Radius2
What is the acceleration of a projectile at the peak of its trajectory?
Assuming negligible air resistance, the acceleration of a projectile near the Earth's surface is always the gravitational 9.81 m/sec/sec downwards, regardless of where in the trajectory the projectile is.
If you insert two electrodes in the water.will an Ameter show deflection.?
The electrodes will not pass a current unless there is a voltage applied between them. If a voltage source such as a battery or power supply is attached, then a current will flow and a meter will show a deflection. Water is not a good conductor of electricity. Pure, distilled water will pass a lower current than water that has impurities dissolved in it (assuming that other parts of the apparatus remain the same).
Would it be easier or harder to throw a fastball in low gravity?
It would be easier to throw a fastball in low gravity because the ball would experience less resistance from the air, allowing it to travel at a higher speed. Additionally, the reduced gravitational force would make it easier to generate velocity in the throw.
How can calculate room sq ft?
Assuming the room is rectangular, multiply length x width (both in feet).
How do you calculate solid and liquid volume?
To calculate the volume of a solid such as a cube or cylinder, you can use the formula V = l x w x h, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height. For a liquid in a container, measure the dimensions of the container and then multiply the length, width, and height to find the volume. Alternatively, you can use a measuring cup with volume markings for liquids.
How do you calculate the vertical drop of an object travelling horizontally at 101 mph?
To calculate the vertical drop of an object traveling horizontally at 101 mph, you need to know the time it takes for the object to fall. Assuming it falls under gravity only, you can use the formula: vertical drop = 0.5 * g * (time)^2, where g is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.81 m/s^2) and time is the time for the object to fall.
How does gravity affect object that are moving horizontally?
The force of gravity is the same, whether the object doesn't move at all, whether it moves horizontally, vertically, diagonally, or whatever. The force is about 9.8 newton/kilogram.Therefore, if no other forces act on the object, it will accelerate downward at a rate of 9.8 meters/second squared - again, no matter how the object is moving at any given time. Under gravity (and assuming no other forces are significant - such as air resistance), an object that initially moves horizontally will have the tendency to move in a parabola.
How do you calculate 23 Celsius into degrees?
Assuming you mean to convert it to degrees Fahrenheit - multiply the 23 by 1.8, then add 32 to get the answer 73.4
