Answer:

10 yard

Step-by-step explanation:

here... imagine...

flag pole. is perpendicular to the ground and is 8 yards high...

so ...

we can form right angled triangle having hypotenuse .. which is rope...

so by pythagoras theorem...

h =

\sqrt{p{ }^{2} + b {}^{2}   }

so... it would be...

\sqrt{6 { }^{2}  + 8 {}^{2} }

i.e.. 10

The average distance from the sun to the planet Mercury is about 58,000,000 km. The diameter of a human hair is about 0.0025 cm.
Anna [14]

Answer:

Distance of Sun and Mercury = 58,000,000 km.

In Scientific notation, it would be: 5.8 × 10⁷ Km

Diameter of a human hair = 0.0025 cm

In scientific notation, it would be: 2.5 × 10⁻³ cm

Before Comparison, we need to bring  to  or vice-versa, so we can easily calculate then, here, we will go from cm to Km.

2.5 × 10⁻³ × 10⁻⁵ Km = 2.5 × 10⁻⁸

Now, we can compare the values,  

5.8 × 10⁷ Km > 2.5 × 10⁻⁸

[ reason. - power of smaller number is in negative, it means, it is denominator, which would be very small as compared to other ]

ANSWER THIS PLS!!!!
astra-53 [7]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation: With the constant velocity motion formula, we can determine constant velocity of the object in motion whose data we collected:

x = x₀ + vt

Velocity can be calculated as:

v=\frac{x-x_{0}}{t}

v=\frac{70-40}{10}

v = 3 m/s

The beginning of the data collect, object is 40m away, then x₀ = 40.

So, equation modeling the object's path is x = 40 + 3t.
