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:
Speed at which the ball passes the window’s top = 10.89 m/s
Explanation:
Height of window = 3.3 m
Time took to cover window = 0.27 s
Initial velocity, u = 0m/s
We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5at²
For the top of window (position A)
For the bottom of window (position B)
We also have
Solving
So after 1.11 seconds ball reaches at top of window,
We have equation of motion v = u + at
Speed at which the ball passes the window’s top = 10.89 m/s
