The amount of work done in emptying the tank by pumping the water over the top edge is 163.01* 10³ ft-lbs.

Given that, the tank is 8 feet across the top and 6 feet high

By the property of similar triangles, 4/6 = r/y

6r = 4y

r = 4/6*y = 2/3*y

Each disc is a circle with area, A = π(2/3*y)² = 4π/9*y²

The weight of each disc is m = ρw* A

m = 62.4* 4π/9*y² = 87.08*y²

The distance pumped is 6-y.

The work done in pumping the tank by pumping the water over the top edge is

W = 87.08 ∫(6-y)y² dy

W = 87.08 ∫(6y³ - y²) dy

W =  87.08 [6y⁴/4 - y³/3]

W =  87.08 [3y⁴/2- y³/3]

The limits are from 0 to 6.

W =  87.08 [3*6⁴/2 - 6³/3] = 87.08* [9*6³ - 2*36] = 87.08(1872) = 163013.76 ft-lbs

The amount of work done in emptying the tank by pumping the water over the top edge is 163013.76 ft-lbs.

The amount of pressure exerted by a solid is based on
Veronika [31]

Answer:

pressure= force/area

A solid resting on a horizontal surfaceexerts a normal contactforce equals to its weight. The pressure of the solid on the surface depends on the area of contact. (b) the area of contact between the two surfaces. The greater the force or the smaller the area the greater the pressure.

The 60.0 kg skier shown below is skiing down a 35.0 degree incline where the magnitude of the friction force is 38.5N
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

a) 4.98m/s²

b) 481.66N

Explanation:

a) Using the Newtons second law of motion

\sum F_x = ma_x\\F_m - F_f = ma_x\\Wsin \theta - F_f = ma_x\\mgsin \theta - F_f = ma_x\\

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Fm is the moving force acting along the plane

Ff is the frictional force opposing the moving froce

a is the acceleration of the skier

Given

m = 60kg

g = 9.8m/s²

\theta = 35°

Ff = 38.5N

Required

acceleration of the skier a

Substituting into the formula;

60(9.8)sin 35^0 - 38.5 = 60a\\588sin35^0 - 38.5 = 60a\\337.26 - 38.5 = 60a\\298.76 = 60a\\a = 298.76/60\\a = 4.98m/s^2\\

Hence the acceleration of the skier is 4.98m/s²

b) The normal force on the skier is expressed as;

N = Wcosθ

N = mgcosθ

N = 60(9.8)cos 35°

N = 588cos 35°

N = 481.66N

Hence the normal force on the skier is 481.66N

You are sitting 3 m away from you friend who is watching a cartoon on his phone. How will the sound itensity change if your frie
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Decreases by $3.6 \times 10^{-3}$ times

Explanation:

The intensity of a sound is defined as the energy of the sound that is flowing in an unit time through the unit area which is in the direction that is perpendicular to the direction of the sound waves movement.

The intensity of energy is described by the inverse square law. It states that the intensity varies inversely with the distance square of the distance.

In other words, the sound intensity decreases as inversely proportional to the squared of the distance.  i.e. $\frac{1}{r^2}$

In the context when the distance was 3 m, the intensity of the sound was = $\frac{1}{9}$

But when the distance became 6 cm or 0.06 m, the sound intensity decreases by =  $\frac{1}{0.06^2}$

                       = $3.6 \times 10^{-3}$ times
