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
D.

The period of the musical note is
seconds.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
The frequency is defined as the number of oscillations or a complete cycle of wave occurred in a given time interval. So the frequency is inversely proportional to the time period. Thus the mathematical representation of frequency with time period is

As the frequency is given as
, the time period can be found as

Thus,

Thus the time period for the frequency of the musical note is
seconds.
