Why does a tree in the path of sunlight create a shadow instead of the light spreading around the tree?
Light travels in straight lines and therefore some will hit the tree. Where this happens a shadow (absence of light) is created behind the tree.
How tall isa tree if woman is 5ft and her shadow is 4ft and near by tree shadow is 10ft?
Let the height of the tree be x: x/10 = 5/4 x = 50/4 The tree is 12.5 feet
A woman stands next to a tree ans she is 5 feet tall her shadow is 3feet the trees shadow is 7.5 feet long how tall is the tree?
4.5 ft
How can you determine how tall a tree is if it casts a shadow that measures 5 m and at the same time a meter stick casts a shadow that is 0.4 m long?
Measure the tree with the meter stick.
How do you solve a 10' tree casts a 12' shadow how far is the top of the tree from tip of shadow?
Use Pythagoras' theorem: 102+122 = 244 and the square root of this is about 15.62049935' which is the distance.
What happens to your shadow if you stand in the lights of a tree's shadow?
A tree's shadow does not have light. Anytime you are in the shadow of another object your body has no shadow of its own.
How is the shadow of the tree formed?
The shadow of a tree is formed when sunlight is blocked by the tree, creating an area of darkness on the ground. The position of the sun and the angle of the tree's leaves and branches determine the size and shape of the shadow. When the sun is directly above, the shadow appears directly below the tree, and as the sun moves, so does the shadow.
How tall is a tree if woman is 5ft and her shadow is 4ft and near by tree shadow is 10ft?
The tree is 12.5 feet in height
When a tree cast a 20 foot shadow a man 6 feet tall casts a 3 foot shadow how tall is the tree?
The man is twice as high as his shadow. Therefore, the tree must also be twice as high as its shadow, which would make the tree 40 feet tall.
What would be the length of the shadow of a 24 ft tree when a 40 ft tree casts a 16 ft shadow?
You have two similar triangles with one side the tree, and another the shadow Using the side with the tree, the ratio of the length of the triangles can be found: the triangles are in the ratio of 24 : 40 Thus divide the shadow of the 40ft tree by 40 to find out the length of shadow per foot of tree, and multiply this by 24 to find the length of the shadow of the 24 ft tree. This can be done by using the ratio as a fraction 24/40: → the shadow of the 24 ft tree is 16 ft × 24/40 = 9.6 ft
A tree is twice as high as the length of the shadow it casts The distance from the tip of tree to the tip of the shadow is 8 feet What is the length of the shadow that the tree casts?
Since the tree is twice as high as the length of the shadow, we can set up the following equation: 2x = x + 8, where x is the length of the shadow. Solving the equation gives us x = 8 feet, so the length of the shadow that the tree casts is 8 feet.
Can you give a sentence with the word shadow?
A tree casts a large shadow.
What is the size of a tree if the shadow of the tree is 5m?
It depends where the Sun is.
A tree cast a shodow 20 feet long a 5 foot tall boy stands in the shadow so that the end of his shadow lines up with the tree his shadow is 6 feet long how tall is the tree?
60
What is the sanskrit word for shadow under tree?
The Sanskrit word for shadow under a tree is "vṛkṣāt tāpaḥ" (वृक्षात् तापः).
A tree cast a 9 ft shadow at the same time that the a person 6ft tall cast a 4 ft shadow what is the height if the tree?
To find the height of the tree, we can set up a proportion using the similar triangles formed by the tree and its shadow, and the person and their shadow. The ratio of the height of the tree to its shadow is the same as the ratio of the height of the person to their shadow. This gives us (height of tree)/(9 ft) = (6 ft)/(4 ft). Solving for the height of the tree, we get height of tree = (9 ft * 6 ft) / 4 ft = 13.5 ft.
How is a tree that casts a 28-ft shadow at the same time a 4-ft pole casts a shadow which is 9-ft long?
The height of the tree is in direct proportion to the pole and its shadow
