A tree casts a shadow 27 m long. At the same time, the shadow cast by a 66-cm tall statue is 56 cm long. Find the height of the

tree to the nearest tenth of a meter?

\frac{height _{1} }{shadow_{1}} =  \frac{height _{2} }{shadow_{2}}

\frac{height _{1} }{27m} = \frac{66cm}{56cm}

\frac{height _{1} }{2700cm} = \frac{66cm}{56cm}

2700*66=56*h _{1}

178200=56h _{1}

3182.1cm=h _{1}

\frac{3182.1cm}{1000cm} = 3.2m

height:3.2m

As long as everything is on level ground with uniform elevation, and everything happens at the same time of day (with the sun at the same height in the sky) ... 

(66cm statue) / (56cm shadow) = (height of tree, meters) / (27m shadow)

Multiply each side of the equation by (27m) :

height of tree = (66 cm) x (27m) / (56cm) = 31.82 meters or <em><u>31.8 meters </u></em>

What is the ratio of the intensities of an earthquake PP wave passing through the Earth and detected at two points 19 kmkm and 4
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The ratio of the intensities is roughly 6:1.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The intensity I() of an earthquake wave is given by:

I = \frac{P}{4\pi d^{2}}

<em>where P: is the power ans d: is the distance. </em>

Hence, the ratio of the intensities of an earthquake wave passing through the Earth and detected at two points 19 km and 46 km from the source is:

\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}} = \frac{P/4\pi d_{1}^{2}}{P/4\pi d_{2}^{2}}

<em>where I₁ = P/4πd₁², d₁=19 km, I₁ = P/4πd₂² and d₂=46 km     </em>

\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}} = \frac{d_{2}^{2}}{d_{1}^{2}}

\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}} = \frac{46 km^{2}}{19 km^{2}}

\frac{I_{1}}{I_{2}} = 5.9:1

Therefore, the ratio of the intensities is roughly 6:1.  

 

I hope it helps you!
