Top Questions on Distance and angle measurement
- To reduce the slope distance (S) to an equivalent horizontal distance (H) as shown in the figure given below, the following independent observations were taken.
\(S = 29.95 m ± 0.01 m; \theta = 4°30' ± 10' \)
The required precision of computed horizontal distance is ± 0.005 m. Assume a "balanced accuracy" where the contribution to precision of the horizontal distance comes equally from the slope distance and angle measurements. The minimum number of angle observations to achieve the desired precision is

- A bird is resting on a point P at a height of 8 m above the Mean Sea Level (MSL). Upon hearing a loud noise, the bird flies parallel to the ground surface and reaches a point Q which is located at a height of 3 m above MSL. The ground surface has a falling gradient of 1 in 2. Ignoring the effects of curvature and refraction, the horizontal distance (in meters) between points P and Q is ______ (in integer).

- A 2m × 2m tank of 3 m height has inflow, outflow and stirring mechanisms. Initially, the tank was half-filled with fresh water. At t = 0, an inflow of a salt solution of concentration 5 g/m3 at the rate of 2 litre/s and an outflow of the well stirred mixture at the rate of 1 litre/s are initiated. This process can be modelled using the following differential equation:
\(\frac {dm}{dt}+\frac {m}{6000+t}=0.01\)
where m is the mass (grams) of the salt at time t (seconds). The mass of the salt (in grams) in the tank at 75% of its capacity is _____ (rounded off to 2 decimal places).- GATE CE - 2024
