Answer:

60 000 N

Explanation:

1 pa = 1 N/m^2

you have 300 000 of these = 300 000 N /m^2

but only an area of .2 m^2

300 000 N / m^2 * .2 m^2 = 60 000 N

A street light is mounted at the top of a 15-ft-tall pole. A man 6 ft tall walks away from the pole with a speed of 4 ft/s along

babymother [125]

Answer:

Explanation:

height of pole = 15 ft

height of man = 6 ft

Let the length of shadow is y .

According to the diagram

Let at any time the distance of man is x.

The two triangles are similar

$\frac{y-x}{y}=\frac{6}{15}$

15 y - 15 x = 6 y

9 y = 15 x

$y=\frac{5}{3}x$

Differentiate with respect to time.

$\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{5}{3}\frac{dx}{dt}$

As given, dx/dt = 4 ft/s

$\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{5}{3}\times 4$

$\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{20}{3}$ ft/s
