The record height of a man to date is 8 feet 11 inches​ (107 inches). If all men had identical body​ types, their weights would

vary directly as the cube of their heights. Assume that all men do have identical body types. If a man who is 5 feet 10 inches tall​ (70 inches) weighs 175175 ​pounds, approximately how much would a man with a height of 9 feet 2 inches9 feet 2 inches (110 inches )(110 inches) ​weigh? A man with a record height of 9 feet 2 inches9 feet 2 inches would weigh approximately nothing lbs.

Answer:

679.08 lbs

Explanation:

Here it is given that

m\propto h^3

m_1 = Mass of first person = 175 pounds

h_1 = Height of first person = 70 inches

m_2 = Mass of second person

h_2 = Height of second person = 110 inches

\frac{m_1}{m_2}=\frac{h_1^3}{h_2^3}\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{m_1h_2^3}{h_1^3}\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{175\times 110^3}{70^3}\\\Rightarrow m_2=679.08\ lb

The weight of the second person would be 679.08 lbs

The frequency of a microwave signal is 9.76 ghz. what is its wavelength? (c = 3.00 × 108 m/s)
dolphi86 [110]
The basic relationship between frequency of an electromagnetic wave and wavelength of the wave is
c = \lambda f
where c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light.

Manipulating the equation, we can rewrite it as
\lambda =  \frac{c}{f}

The frequency of the wave in our problem is
9.76 GHz = 9.76 \cdot 10^9 Hz
so if we use the previous formula, we find the correspondant wavelength:
\lambda =  \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{9.76 \cdot 10^9 Hz} =0.031 m

A stone is dropped from the upper observation deck of a tower, 750 m above the ground. (assume g = 9.8 m/s2.) (a) find the dista
Gekata [30.6K]
(a) The stone moves by uniform accelerated motion, with constant acceleration g=9.81 m/s^2 directed downwards, and its initial vertical position at time t=0 is 750 m. So, the vertical position (in meters) at any time t can be written as
y(t)= y_0 -  \frac{1}{2}gt^2= 750 - 4.9 t^2

(b) The time the stone takes to reach the ground is the time at which the vertical position of the stone becomes zero: y(t)=0. So, we can write
750-4.9 t^2 = 0
from which we find the time t after which the stone reaches the ground:
t= \sqrt{\frac{750 m}{4.9 m/s^2 }}= 12.37 s

(c) The velocity of the stone at time t can be written as
v(t) = -gt
because it is an accelerated motion with initial speed zero. Substituting t=12.37 s, we find the final velocity of the stone:
v(12.37 s)=-(9.81 m/s^2)(12.37 s)=-121.3 m/s

(d) if the stone has an initial velocity of v_0 = 6 m/s, then its law of motion would be
y(t)=y_0 - v_0t -  \frac{1}{2}gt^2
and we can find the time it needs to reach the ground by requiring again y(t)=0:
0=750 - 6t - 4.9 t^2
which has two solutions: one is negative so we neglect it, while the second one is t=11.78 s, so this is the time after which the stone reaches the ground.

If a light Ray is aimed so that it bounces off a metal drain in a pool, the light Ray will reflect off the drain according to ?
Komok [63]

Answer:

B) the law of reflection

Explanation:

When a light ray reflects off a surface, it obeys the law of reflection.

A few definitions before giving the law of reflection:

- The angle of incidence is defined as the angle between the incident ray and the normal to the surface

- The angle of reflection is defined as the angle between the reflected ray and the normal to the surface

The law of reflection states that:

- The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection

- The incident ray and the reflected ray lie both on the same plane.
