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 hunter is practicing hitting a target that is down range. If the arrow leaves the bow at a velocity of 30ms at an angle of 40°
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

range of projectile = u² sin2θ / g

u = 30 m /s

θ = 40°

range = 30² x sin 80 / 9.8

= 90.44 m

b )

maximum altitude H = u² sin²θ / 2 x g

= 30² sin²40 / 9.8

= 37.94 m .

As the object in the picture moves from point A to point D across the surface, the sum of the gravitational and kinetic energies
Afina-wow [57]
Answer:
d. remains the same
Explanation:
We know that if there is no external resistive force then the total energy of the system remains constant.
The total energy is the summation of kinetic and potential energy.
When an object moves from point A to another point D then the total energy, potential gravitational and kinetic energy will remain same.
