    THE SLEEP-OUT

    You should show ALL working.

    QUESTION ONE Q

    (a) Andrew has a ladder 2.1 m long.


    He places it on level ground with the foot, P, 0.75 m
    2.1 m
    from the wall.

    Find the distance the ladder will reach up the wall,


    ie find QR.

    P 0.75 m R

    QR = m

    (b) The ladder is moved so that it makes an angle of 70° 2.1 m


    with the level ground, ie the foot is now at S.

    Find how far the foot of the ladder will be from the
    wall, ie find SR.
    70°
    S R

    SR = m

    N

    E
    Kerry looks
    in this direction

    Joe looks
    in this direction

    If there is no wind blowing, rain falls vertically at 9 metres per second (m per s).
    The wind blowing makes the rain come down at an angle.
    Joe and Kerry measure the angle of the falling rain at the same time.
    To Joe, the rain appears to be falling towards the east at an angle of 51° to the vertical.
    To Kerry, the rain appears to be falling towards the south at an angle of 32° to the vertical.

    Find the speed of the wind.
