At a given time of​ day, the ratio of the height of an object to the length of its shadow is the same for all objects. If a 4​-f

t stick in the ground casts a shadow of 2.8 ​ft, find the height of a tree that casts a shadow that is 24.64 ft.

Answer:35.2 ft

Explanation:

Given

height of stick =4 ft

shadow length =2.8 ft

Angle of elevation of sun is

tan\theta =\frac{4}{2.8}

let the height of tree be h

as \thetawill remain same thus

tan\theta =\frac{h}{24.64}

\frac{4}{2.8}=\frac{h}{24.64}

h=35.2 ft

Concept map for kinetic energy, work and power
Helen [10]

Kinetic energy: the energy of motion

Work: the change in kinetic energy

Power: the rate of work done

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. Mathematically, it is given by:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

The work done an object is the amount of energy transferred; according to the energy-work theorem, it is equal to the change in kinetic energy of an object:

W=K_f - K_i

where

K_f is the  final kinetic energy

K_i is the initial kinetic energy

Finally, the power is the rate of work done per unit time. Mathematically, ti can be expressed as

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

W is the work done

t is the time elapsed

Which type of force will an object move towards?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

i think it's weakest

EDIT: It's net. I answered weakest but it was wrong and the correct answer was net. oops

Explanation:

if a strong force is acting on something it will push it away, meaning the object would go towards the weaker force

3. Explain why it is, regardless of the location, at a certain distance between the two points, you will perceive the two points
faust18 [17]

Answer:

Hello your question is missing some parts attached below is the missing part of your question

answer: <em>many primary sensory Neurons will converge and become a single Neuron and the single Neuron will send a single harmonized signal to the Brain</em>.

Explanation:

The reason regardless of the location that will make you perceive the two points as a single point rather than as two distinct points is that many primary sensory Neurons will converge and become a single Neuron and the single Neuron will send a single harmonized signal to the Brain.
