Answer:
-4/3 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras :
a² = x² + c²
5² = x² + y² - - - (1)
The horizontal distance x with respect to time t = 1m/sec
dx/dt = 1m/sec
To obtain the vertical height 'y' with respect to time t when x = 4
5² = x² + y²
Wen x = 4
5² = 4² + y²
25 = 16 + y²
y =√(25 - 16)
y = 3
Differentiate (1) with respect to t
x² + y² = 25 - ---- - (1)
2x * dx /dt + 2y dy/dt = 0
dx/dt = 1
x = 4.
y = 3
2(4)(1) + 2(3) * dy/dt = 0
8 + 6dy/dt = 0
6 dy/dt = - 8
dy/dt = - 8/6
dy/dt = - 4/3
Answer:
37 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
No matter how much smaller or bigger the shape is, it is still similar to the other shape, meaning they will have different angle measurements, but the degrees will remain the same.
