The students height is .001 kilometers tall. To get from meters to kilometers is 3 steps up the scale of prefixes which is: Kilo Hecto Decka Base unit (Unit by itself) Deci Centi Milli It goes on in both directions, but these are the main ones.

Why you only measure tall buildings in meter and not in kilometer?

It doesn't make sense to measure buildings on the order of a kilometer, since no building comes close to reaching that height. Why say that the tallest building in the world is "0.828 kilometers" tall when you could just say it's "828 meters" tall?


If a flagpole casts a shadow of 7.7m and a meter stick casts a shadow of 1.4m how tall is the flagpole?

To find the height of the flagpole, you can use the concept of similar triangles. The ratio of the height of the flagpole to the length of its shadow should equal the ratio of the height of the meter stick (1 meter) to its shadow (1.4 meters). Therefore, the height of the flagpole can be calculated as follows: [ \text{Height of flagpole} = \frac{7.7 , \text{m}}{1.4 , \text{m}} \times 1 , \text{m} \approx 5.5 , \text{m}. ] Thus, the flagpole is approximately 5.5 meters tall.


What is 12 metres tall?

Twelve meters tall is roughly the height of a four-story building, as each floor typically measures about 3 meters. It is also comparable to the height of a large tree, such as a mature oak or pine. In sports, a 12-meter height can be seen in high diving platforms or the height of certain obstacles in competitions like parkour.


How tall is a stack of 25 coins if each coin is 0.04m thick?

To find the height of a stack of 25 coins, you multiply the thickness of one coin by the number of coins. If each coin is 0.04 meters thick, the total height would be 25 coins × 0.04 meters/coin = 1 meter. Therefore, a stack of 25 coins is 1 meter tall.


How tall is a tree which cast a 20 meter shadow when a 3 meter post cast a 5 meter shadow?

They both have the same tangent ratios so let the height of the tree be x:- x/20 = 3/5 Multiply both sides by 20 x = 60/5 The tree is 12 meters tall
