Answer:

The lead statue is 87 inches tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the height of the lead statue

using proportion

we know that

The height of the  lead statue divided by the length of his shadow must be equal to the height of the tourist divided by the length of his shadow.

so

\frac{x}{43.5}=\frac{64}{32}\\\\\frac{x}{43.5}=2\\\\x=2(43.5)\\\\x=87\ in

Una lancha que viaja a 10 m/s pasa por debajo de un puente 3 segundos después que ha pasado un bote que viaja a 7 m/s, ¿después
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

La lancha y el bote se encontrarán a 70 metros de distancia del puente.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sea el punto debajo del puente el punto de referencia y que ambas lanchas se desplazan a velocidad a continuación, las ecuaciones cinemáticas para cada embarcación son presentadas a continuación:

Bote a 7 metros por segundo

x_{A} = x_{o}+v_{A}\cdot t (Ec. 1)

Lancha a 10 metros por segundo

x_{B} = x_{o}+v_{B}\cdot (t-3\,s) (Ec. 2)

Donde:

x_{o} - Posición debajo del puente, medido en metros.

x_{A}, x_{B} - Posición final de cada embarcación, medido en metros.

v_{A}, v_{B} - Velocidad de cada embarcación, medida en metros por segundo.

t - Tiempo, medido en segundos.

Para determinar la posición en la que ambas embarcaciones se encuentran, se debe determinar el instante en que ocurre a partir de la siguiente condición: x_{A} = x_{B}

Igualando (Ec. 1) y (Ec. 2) se tiene que:

v_{A}\cdot t = v_{B}\cdot (t-3\,s)

Ahora despejamos el tiempo:

3\cdot v_{B} = (v_{B}-v_{A})\cdot t

t = \frac{3\cdot v_{B}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}

Si sabemos que v_{B} = 10\,\frac{m}{s} y v_{A} = 7\,\frac{m}{s}, entonces:

t = \frac{3\cdot \left(10\,\frac{m}{s} \right)}{10\,\frac{m}{s}-7\,\frac{m}{s}}

t = 10\,s

Ahora, la posición de encuentro es: (x_{o} = 0\,m, v_{A} = 7\,\frac{m}{s} y t = 10\,s)

x_{A} = 0\,m + \left(7\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (10\,s)

x_{A} = 70\,m

La lancha y el bote se encontrarán a 70 metros de distancia del puente.
