How can you get 3? Please explain the solution in detail.

The formula (h^2/2L)+(h^4/8L^3) is for slope that ranges from 20%-30%.

If (h^4/8L^3) is to be neglected, h^2/2L is left and if we are going to equate it with 20% the answer would be 2.8~3 and if h^2/2L is to be equated to 30% the answer would be 3.4~3 therefore the answer is 3.

The error can be accepted upto 10%. thus, the second term divided by the correlational factor equal 0.1.

Assuming the first term is x and the second term is y. Then y/x+y=0.1==> x+y/x=10 with y not zero==>1+x/y=9==>y=9. solve it u will get l=3.

How will get 3.3?

Rathika said:   8 years ago
Here, root 40 = 6.32.
Then how will get h= 3.3?

@All.

Answer is 1
Very simple put tan(3°)=h/20.
You will get the answer.
h=1m.

How? Explain.

In this case, if we neglected 2nd term the correction should be less 20%. So,(h^2/2x20)<20% or 0.2. results h<2.828 m.

h'2 = 20% * 2 * 20.
= 2.826.
