An electrical tower of height 12 feet stands 21 feet away from a 20-foot tall building. A support cable stretched from the top of the tower to a point on the ground and then back to the top of the building. How far from the base of the tower should the cable be attached on the ground so that the least amount of total cables is used? You must set up an appropriate function to get credit.

A radar tower sends out a signal of wavelength λ. It is x meters tall, and it stands on the edge of the ocean. A weatherballoon is released from a boat that is a distance d out to sea. The balloon floats up to an altitude h.In this problem, assume that the boat and balloon are so far awayfrom the radar tower that the small angle approximationholds.
a) Due to interference with reflections off the water, certainwavelengths will be...

Two rocks are thrown simultaneously from the top of a very tall
tower with identical speeds of v = 4.70 m/s, but in two different
directions. (See figure below.)
One of them is thrown with an angle of 10.0 degrees below the
horizontal, the other one at an angle of 50.0 degrees above the
horizontal. How far will the rocks be from each other after 4.50 s?
(Neglect air resistance and assume that the rocks will not hit the
ground.)

A man enters a tall tower, needing to know its height. He notes that a long pendulum extends from the ceiling almost to the floor and that its period is 17.0 s. (a) How tall is the tower? (b) If this pendulum is taken to the Moon, where the free-fall acceleration is 1.67 m/s2, what is the period there?
