Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The length of his shadow is decreasing at a rate of 1.13 m/s

Explanation:

The ray of light hitting the ground forms a right angled triangle of height H, which is the height of the building and width, D which is the distance of the tip of the shadow from the building.

Also, the height of the man, h which is parallel to H forms a right-angled triangle of width, L which is the length of the shadow.

By similar triangles,

H/D = h/L

L = hD/H

Also, when the man is 4 m from the building, the length of his shadow is L = D - 4

So, D - 4 = hD/H

H(D - 4) = hD

H = hD/(D - 4)

Since h = 2 m and D = 12 m,

H = 2 m × 12 m/(12 m - 4 m)

H = 24 m²/8 m

H = 3 m

Since L = hD/H

and h and H are constant, differentiating L with respect to time, we have

dL/dt = d(hD/H)/dt

dL/dt = h(dD/dt)/H

Now dD/dt = velocity(speed) of man = -1.7 m/s ( negative since he is moving towards the building in the negative x - direction)

Since h = 2 m and H = 3 m,

dL/dt = h(dD/dt)/H

dL/dt = 2 m(-1.7 m/s)/3 m

dL/dt = -3.4/3 m/s

dL/dt = -1.13 m/s

So, the length of his shadow is decreasing at a rate of 1.13 m/s

Who needs to know physics when they are making a satellite
vladimir2022 [97]
First satellite was Sputnik and it was a race then to send satellites!! Everyone starts experimenting how to launch.

first try was on a dog , Laika !! It was send to space as it is long after sputnik is placed in orbit !!

Now you know everyone knows rocket science and the most active are ISRO (India) and NASA (USA) !!
