Answer:

968 J

Explanation:

The computation of the kinetic energy is shown below:

Given that

mass m = 2 kg

height h = 20 m

velocity v = 24 m / s

Now

According to the law of conservation of energy ,

= K.E at top + P.E at top

= ( 1 ÷ 2) mv ^ 2 + mgh

= 576 + 392

= 968 J

A woman 5.5 ft walks at a rate of 6 ft/sec towards a street light that is 22 ft above the ground. At what rate is the length of
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The length of her shadow is changing at the rate  -2 m/s

Explanation:

Let the height oh the street light, h = 22 ft

Let the height of the woman, w = 5.5 ft

Horizontal distance to the street light = l

length of shadow = x

h/w = (l + x)/x

22/5.5 =  (l + x)/x

4x = l + x

3x = l

x = 1/3 l

taking the derivative with respect to t of both sides

dx/dt = 1/3 dl/dt

dl/dt = -6 ft/sec ( since the woman is walking towards the street light, the value of l is decreasing with time)

dx/dt = 1/3 * (-6)

dx/dt = -2 m/s
