A lighthouse stands 525 m off a straight shore and the focused beam of its light revolves two times each minute. As shown in the figure. P is the
point on shore closest to the lighthouse and Q is a point on the shore 325 m from P. What is the speed of the beam along the shore when it
strikes the point Q? Describe how the speed of the beam along the shore varies with the distance between P and Q. Neglect the height of the
lighthouse.
525 m
325 m
Let x be the distance along the shore from point P to the beam and let 0 be the angle through which the light revolves. Write an equation that relates x and 0.
Ballistics experts are able to identify the weapon that fired a certain bullet by studying the markings on the bullet after it is fired. They test the gun's rifling (the grooves
in the bullet as it travels down the barrel of the gun) by comparing it to that of a second bullet fired into a bale of paper. The speed, s, in centimeters per second, that
the bullet travels through the paper is given by s=50(3-10t), where t is the time after the bullet strikes the bale and ts0.3 second.
(a) Complete the following table to find the speed for the given values of t.

- LIFE SCIENCE APPLICATION Kite Flying Christine O'Brien is flying her kite in a wind that is blowing it east at a rate of 50 ft per minute. She has already let out 200 ft of string, and the kite is flying 100 ft above her hand. How fast must she let out string at this moment to keep the kite flying with the same speed and altitude?arrow_forwardPigeon Flight Repeat Exercise 13, but assume a pigeon needs 10/9 as much energy to fly over water as over land. Pigeon Flight Homing pigeons avoid flying over large bodies of water, preferring to fly around them instead.One possible explanation is the fact that extra energy is required to fly over water because air pressure drops over water in the daytime. Assume that a pigeon released from a boat 1 mile from the shore of a lake point B in the figure files first to point P on the shore and then along the straight edge of the lake to reach its home at L. If L is 2 miles from point A, the point on the shore closest to the boat and if a pigeon need 4/3 as much energy per mile to fly over water as over land. Find the location of point P, which minimizes energy used.arrow_forward4 straight path. How fast is the tip of his shadow moving when he is 45 ft from the pole?

- A lighthouse stands 500 m off a straight shore and the focused beam of its light revolves four times each minute. As shown in the figure, P is the point on shore closest to the lighthouse and Q is a point on the shore 275 m from P. What is the speed of the beam along the shore when it strikes the point Q? Describe how the speed of the beam along the shore varies with the distance between P and Q. Neglect the height of the lighthouse. 275 m P Let x be the distance along the shore from point P to the beam and let 0 be the angle through which the light revolves.
