Answer:
The rate of change of the shadow length of a person is 2.692 ft/s
Solution:
As per the question:
Height of a person, H = 20 ft
Height of a person, h = 7 ft
Rate = 5 ft/s
Now,
From Fig.1:
b = person's distance from the lamp post
a = shadow length
Also, from the similarity of the triangles, we can write:
Differentiating the above eqn w.r.t t:
Now, we know that:
Rate = 
Thus
Answer:
1000 Hz
Explanation:
<em>The frequency would be 1000 Hz.</em>
The frequency, wavelength, and speed of a wave are related by the equation:
<em>v = fλ ..................(1)</em>
where v = speed of the wave, f = frequency of the wave, and λ = wavelength of the wave.
Making f the subject of the formula:
<em>f = v/λ.........................(2)</em>
Also, speed (v) = distance/time.
From the question, distance = 900 m, time = 3.0 s
Hence, v = 900/3.0 = 300 m/s
Substitute v = 300 and λ = 0.3 into equation (2):
f = 300/0.3 = 1000 Hz
Answer:
an act of asking for information.
