Answer:
468 m
Explanation:
So the building and the point where the laser hit the water surface make a right triangle. Let's call this triangle ABC where A is at the base of the building, B is at the top of the building, and C is where the laser hits the water surface. Similarly, the submarine, the projected submarine on the surface and the point where the laser hit the surface makes a another right triangle CDE. Let D be the submarine and E is the other point.
The length CE is length AE - length AC = 284 - 234 = 50 m
We can calculate the angle ECD:
This is also the angle ACB, so we can find the length AB:
So the height of the building is 468m
Answer:
10s
Explanation:
If it took Beatrice 25 seconds to complete the race
Distance = 100 meter
Beatrice speed = 100/25
= 4m/s
If Alice runs at a constant speed and crosses the finish line $5$ seconds, she must have completed the race in 20s (25 -5).
Her speed where constant
= 100/20
= 5 m/s
It would take Alice
= 50/5
= 10s
It would take Alice 10s to run $50$ meters.
Atmospheric refraction is the deviation of light or other electromagnetic wave from a straight line as it passes through the atmosphere due to the variation in air density as a function of height. ... Refraction not only affects visible light rays, but all electromagnetic radiation, although in varying degrees.
So in short, the answer is D.
