Chapter 5.4, Problem 62E
Length of a Shadow On a day when the sun passes directly overhead at noon, a 6-ft-tall man casts a shadow of length
where S is measured in feet and t is the number of hours since 6 a.m.
- (a) Find the length of the shadow al 8:00 a.m., noon, 2:00 p.m., and 5:45 p.m.
- (b) Sketch a graph of the function S for 0 < t < 12.
- (c) From the graph, determine the values of t at which the length of the shadow equals the man’s height. To what lime of day does each of these values correspond?
- (d) Explain what happens to the shadow as the time approaches 6 p.m. (that is, as t → 12−).
