Astudent on the ground observes the sun just as it sets. his friend, who is located 100 meters higher up in a tall building, tells him via cell phone that she observes the sun setting 77 seconds after he does. assuming that the path of the setting sun is perpendicular to the horizon, use this information to estimate the radius of the earth.

Rt≅6377Km

Explanation:

Take a look at the image. The horizontal line is the horizon, and the angle α corresponds to the earth rotation during the 77 seconds.

With this information, we can know the value of α:

α =

Since we have formed a rectangle triangle:

  Solving for Rt:

Rt≅6377467m=6377Km

This is what i found “in a gas turbine engine, the combustor or combustion chamber is fed high pressure air by the compression system. early gas turbine engines used a single chamber known as a can type combustor. today three main configurations exist: can, annular and cannular (also referred to as can-annular tubo-annular).” i hope this you for what your looking for. can you plz mark me brainliest?
