Answer:
h = 30.57 m
Explanation:
given,
angle made with horizon, θ= 27°
Length of the shadow,L = 60 m
now,
the height of the tree would be equal to
h = 60 x tan 27°
h = 30.57 m
hence, height of the tree is equal to 30.57 m
Answer: 18 blocks in total ( 17 add to the original in contact with the ground)
Explanation:
The pressure on the face in contact with the ground ( we choose the face 0.15m x 0.082m)
Pressure= Force ( weigth) /Area
1 Atm = 101325 Pascal [N/ m^2]
Answer:
The mother has to sit 2.17 ft from the center on the other side of the seesaw.
Explanation:
We are trying to find the sum of torques given by the weights of mother and daughter to be zero.
If the torque of the daughter on one side of the pivoting point is given by:
5.5 ft x 63.5 lb x g = 349.25 g ft lb
we need that the absolute value of the torque exerted by the mom (160.9 lb) to be the same in magnitude (and of course opposite direction). So we assume that "d" is the distance at which the mother locates to make this torque equal in magnitude to her daughter's torque:
d x 160.9 lb x g = 349.25 g ft lb
d = 2.17 ft
