Answer:

$1,165\frac{1}{3}\ yd$

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we have a regular octagonal barrier (That means that all the length side are equal)

Find out the perimeter of the barrier

The perimeter is equal to

$P=8b$

where

b is the length side of the barrier

we have

$b=145\frac{2}{3}\ yd= 145+\frac{2}{3}=\frac{437}{3}\ yd$

substitute in the formula of perimeter

$P=8(\frac{437}{3})=\frac{3,496}{3}\ yd$

Convert to mixed number

$\frac{3,496}{3}\ yd=\frac{3,495}{3}+\frac{1}{3}=1,165\frac{1}{3}\ yd$

A lighthouse is located on a small island 2 km away from the nearest point P on a straight shoreline and its light makes four re

ddd [48]

Answer:

62.8 km per min

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the diagram of this situation is shown below,

In which $\theta$ is the angle made by light to the straight line joining the lighthouse and P,

∵ Light makes 4 revolutions per minute.

Also, 1 revolution = $2\pi$ radians

So, the change in angle with respect to t ( time ),

$\frac{d\theta}{dt}=8\pi\text{ radians per min}$

Let x be the distance of beam from P,

$\implies \tan \theta = \frac{x}{2}$

Differentiating with respect to x,

$\sec^2 \theta \frac{d\theta}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$(1+\tan^2 \theta) (8\pi) = \frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$(1+\frac{x^2}{2^2})(8\pi) = \frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

If x = 1 km,

$(1+\frac{1}{4})8\pi =\frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\frac{5}{4}8\pi = \frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\implies \frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{80\pi}{4}= 20\pi\approx 62.8\text{ km per min}$

Hence, the beam of light moving along the shoreline with the speed of 62.8 km per min
