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

How far will a free falling object fall in 8.7 secs if it started from rest? Remember acceleration is negative for free fall. Do
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

h~=371.26m

Explanation:

when an object falls we use the equations of accelerated motion. There is only one that gives distance.

x = ut +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

Since we have no initial velocity (started from rest) we can get rid of the (ut) term

where a we substitute g (gravitational acceleration, constant for given heights and almost 9.81m/s^2).

h =  \frac{1}{2} g {t}^{2}  =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 9.81 \times  {8.7}^{2}  = 371.26m

A small asteroid with a mass of 1500 kg moves near the earth. At a particular instant the asteroid’s velocity is ⟨3.5 × 104, −1.
zalisa [80]

Answer:

P_{f} =(5.7 x 10^{7 i - 2.24 x 10^{7 j) kgm/s

Explanation:

Due to earths gravity, force on asteroid is given by:

F= \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} } r^

Plugging in the values, we have

F= [(6.67x10^{-11})(1500)(5.97 x 10^{24})(8x10^{6}i + 9x10^{6 j)] / ((8x10^{6})² + (9x10^{6 )²)^{1.5}

F= 2736 i^ + 3078 j^

In order find the final momentum of the Asteroid, apply impulse momentum theorem

P_{f} = P_{i + FΔt

P_{f} = 1500(3.5 x 10^{4 i - 1.8x10^{4 j) + (2736i + 3078j)(1.5x10^{3)

P_{f} =(5.7 x 10^{7  i- 2.24 x 10^{7 j)kgm/s
