Answer;

= 4 m is the length of the man's shadow.

Explanation;

2/x=6/(8+x) cross multiply.

6x=2(8+x)

6x=16+2x

6x-2x=16

4x=16

x=2=16/4

x=4 m. is the length of the man's shadow.

A plane traveling horizontally at 120 ​m/s over flat ground at an elevation of 3610 m must drop an emergency packet on a target
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Horizontal displacement

x = 120 t

Vertical position

y = 3610 - 4.9 t²

y = 0 for the ground

0 = 3610 - 4.9 t²

t = 27.14 s

This is the time it will take to reach the ground .

During this period , horizontal displacement

x = 120 x 27.14 m

= 3256.8 m

So packet should be released 3256.8 m before the target.
