Answer: 93ft
Explanation: Martha's eyesight make an angle with the fence, this is solved as a triangle problem.
We first convert all the dimensions to inches using the fact that 12 inches make 1 ft.
To solve for the angle
Tan § = 18/48 = 0.375
§ = tan^-1 of 0.375 = 20.55°
This same angle elevates to the edge of the building
Tan 20.55 = 399/x
x = 399/tan 20.55
x = 1040 inches
Height of building = x + height of fence
Height of building = 1040 + 78 = 1118 inches
Converting back to ft it becomes
1118/12 = 93 ft 2 inches
Approximately 93ft
Answer:
(a) 41.75m/s
(b) 4.26s
Explanation:
Let:
Distance, D = 89m
Gravity, = 9.8 m/
Initial Velocity, = 0m/s
Final Velocity, = ?
Time Taken, = ?
With the distance formula, which is
D = +
and by substituting what we already know, we have:
89 = ×9.8×
With the equation above, we can solve for :
Now that we have solved , we can use the following velocity formula to solve for
:
, where
is also equals to
, so we have
By substituting ,
, and
,
We have:
