Answer:

[tex]X=3.37561*10^{-16}[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Width [tex]w=2.7m[/tex]

Acceleration [tex]a=9.8m/s^2[/tex]

Generally the equation for The apparent deflection is mathematically given by

X= 0.5 *g*t^2

Where

[tex]t=\frac{width}{Velocity of light}[/tex]

[tex]t=\frac{2.5}{3*10^8}[/tex]

[tex]t=8.3*10^{-9}[/tex]

Therefore

[tex]X= 0.5 *9.8*(8.3*10^{-9})^2[/tex]

[tex]X=3.37561*10^{-16}[/tex]
