The trigonometric ratios are sine, cosine and tangent. We can use cosine to find the length of the shadow from the calculation as 1.7 ft.

<h3>What is trigonometric ratio?</h3>

The term trigonometric ratio has to do with sine, cosine and tangent which are used to solve problems that involve the right angled triangle.

Using the geometry of the right angle triangle, we can find the tangent of the angle 30 in order to obtain the length of the shadow.

Tan 30° = opp/3

opp = 3Tan 30°

opp = 1.7 ft

The length of the girl's shadow from the calculation is 1.7 ft.

Olin [163]

Answer:

6.05 cm

Explanation:

The given equation is

2 aₓ(x-x₀)=( Vₓ²-V₀ₓ²)

The initial head velocity V₀ₓ =11 m/s

The final head velocity  Vₓ is 0

The accelerationis given by =1000 m/s²

the stopping distance = x-x₀=?

So we can wind the stopping distance by following formula

2 (-1000)(x-x₀)=[0^{2} -11^{2}]

x-x₀=6.05*10^{-2} m

       =6.05 cm

Fill in the blank. Consider the inverse square law: When light leaves a light bulb, it spreads out over more and more space as i
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Intensity of light is inversely proportional to distance from source

I ∝ 1 /r²  where I is intensity and r is distance from source . If I₁ and I₂ be intensity at distance r₁ and r₂ .

I₁ /I₂ = r₂² /r₁²

If r₂ = 4r₁ ( given )

I₁ / I₂ = (4r₁ )² / r₁²

= 16 r₁² / r₁²

I₁ / I₂ = 16

I₂ = I₁ / 16

So intensity will become 16 times less bright .

"16 times " is the answer .
