Answer:

1000 cm.

Explanation:

To obtain the estimated tree height :

(Height of rod / length of rod shadow) = (height of tree / length of tree shadow)

Substituting values into the formula :

(150cm / 120 cm) = (height of tree / 800 cm)

Using cross multiplication :

Height of tree * 120 = 150 * 800

Height of tree = (150 * 800) / 120

Height of tree = 120,000 / 120

Height of tree = 1000

Hence, estimate height of tree = 1000 cm

A 66-kg fellow stands on a digital scale in an elevator that accelerates upwards from rest to 4.5 m/s in 2.00 s. show answer Inc
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of the fellow ( m ) = 66kg

acceleration of fellow a

v = u + at

4.5 = 0 + a x 2

a = 4.5 /2

= 2.25 m / s²

Net force acting on fellow in upward direction by the surface of  elevator

R - mg where R is reaction force of the surface of the elevator

Applying Newton's law of motion

R - mg = ma

R = m (g +a )

= 66 x ( 9.8 + 2 )

= 778.8 N

This will be the scale reading .

It's nighttime, and you've dropped your goggles into a 3.2-mm-deep swimming pool. If you hold a laser pointer 1.1 mm above the e
Savatey [412]

Answer: 5.30m

Explanation:

depth of pool = 3.2 m

i = 67.75°

Using snell's law, we have,

n₁ × sin(i) = n₂ × 2 × sin(r)

n₁ = 1, n₂ =1.33, r= 44.09°

Hence,

Distance of Google from edge if pool is:

2.2 + d×tan(r) = 2.2 + (3.2 × tan(44.09°) =5.30m
