A trough is 10 feet long and its ends have the shape of isosceles triangles that are 3 feet across at the top and 1 foot high. I

f the trough is filled with water at a rate of 12 feet cubed per minute, how fast is the water level rising when the trough is half a foot deep?

Answer:

1.6 ft/min

Explanation:

Since trough is 10 ft long and water is filled at the rate of 12ft3/min. We can calculate the rate of water filled with respect to area:

= 12 / 10 = 1.2ft2/min

As the water level rises, so does the water surface, or the bottom side of the isosceles triangles. In fact we can calculate the bottom side when the trough is half foot deep:

= 3 / 2 = 1.5 ft

The rate of change in water level would be the same as calculating the height of the isosceles triangles knowing its base

= 1.2 * 2 / 1.5 = 1.6 ft/min

A 40.0 kg beam is attached to a wall with a hi.nge and its far end is supported by a cable. The angle between the beam and the c
irinina [24]

288.51 N is  the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge.

Given

Mass 0f beam = 40 Kg

The horizontal component of the force exerted by the hi_nge on the beam is 86.62 N

Angle between the beam and cable is = 90°

Angle between beam and the horizontal component = 31°

As the system of the beam, hi_nge and cable are in equilibrium.

The magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi_nge can be calculated by -

F =The  horizontal component of force + the vertical component of force  

F = 86.62 N + 40 × 9.8 × sin 31°

F =86.62 N + 201.89 N

F = 288.51 N

Hence, the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi_nge is 288.51  N.

On which variable does magnetic flux depend?A) the magnetic fieldB)the orientation of the field with respect to the region throu
hram777 [196]

Answer:

D) All of these

Explanation:

The magnetic flux through a coil of wire is given by:

\Phi = BA cos \theta

where

B is the intensity of the magnetic field

A is the area enclosed by the coil

\theta is the angle between the direction of B and the normal to the area of the coil

Therefore, we see that the magnetic flux depends on all these quantities:

A) the magnetic field

B)the orientation of the field with respect to the region through which it passes

C)the area of a region through which magnetic field passes

So, the correct answer is

D) All of these
