The radius of a sphere is increasing at a rate of 4 mm/s. how fast is the volume increasing when the diameter is 40 mm?
marin [14]

Using <span>r </span> to represent the radius and <span>t </span> for time, you can write the first rate as:

<span><span><span><span>dr</span><span>dt</span></span>=4<span>mms</span></span> </span>

or

<span><span>r=r<span>(t)</span>=4t</span> </span>

The formula for a solid sphere's volume is:

<span><span>V=V<span>(r)</span>=<span>43</span>π<span>r3</span></span> </span>

When you take the derivative of both sides with respect to time...

<span><span><span><span>dV</span><span>dt</span></span>=<span>43</span>π<span>(3<span>r2</span>)</span><span>(<span><span>dr</span><span>dt</span></span>)</span></span> </span>

...remember the Chain Rule for implicit differentiation. The general format for this is:

<span><span><span><span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dt</span></span>=<span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span></span>⋅<span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span><span>dt</span></span></span> </span>with <span><span>V=V<span>(r)</span></span> </span> and <span><span>r=r<span>(t)</span></span> </span>.</span>

So, when you take the derivative of the volume, it is with respect to its variable <span>r </span> <span><span>(<span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span></span>)</span> </span>, but we want to do it with respect to <span>t </span> <span><span>(<span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dt</span></span>)</span> </span>. Since <span><span>r=r<span>(t)</span></span> </span> and <span><span>r<span>(t)</span></span> </span> is implicitly a function of <span>t </span>, to make the equality work, you have to multiply by the derivative of the function <span><span>r<span>(t)</span></span> </span> with respect to <span>t </span> <span><span>(<span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span><span>dt</span></span>)</span> </span>as well. That way, you're taking a derivative along a chain of functions, so to speak (<span><span>V→r→t</span> </span>).

Now what you can do is simply plug in what <span>r </span> is (note you were given diameter) and what <span><span><span>dr</span><span>dt</span></span> </span> is, because <span><span><span>dV</span><span>dt</span></span> </span> describes the rate of change of the volume over time, of a sphere.

<span><span><span><span><span>dV</span><span>dt</span></span>=<span>43</span>π<span>(3<span><span>(20mm)</span>2</span>)</span><span>(4<span>mms</span>)</span></span> </span><span><span>=6400π<span><span>mm3</span>s</span></span> </span></span>

Since time just increases, and the radius increases as a function of time, and the volume increases as a function of a constant times the radius cubed, the volume increases faster than the radius increases, so we can't just say the two rates are the same.

Romeo traveled by a 900 kg horse from Manitua to Verona accelerating at the rate of 20 km/hr. With what force is Romeo moving at
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Force(Romeo moving) = 5,000 N

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of horse = 900 kg

Acceleration = 20 km/hr

Find:

Force(Romeo moving)

Computation:

Acceleration = 20 km/hr

Acceleration in m/s = 20 / 3.6 = 5.555556 m/s²

Force = m x a

Force(Romeo moving) = 900 x 5.555556

Force(Romeo moving) = 5,000 N

Explanation:

Waning quarter moon: hair removal time and bangs cuts.

The growing quarter as a moment of growth, development and evolution. On the contrary, the waning moon is associated with a time of completion, debugging or liquidation of pending issues.

We must take advantage of the influence of the lunar cycle in our favor according to the action we are going to take. If you have trouble growing your hair, try to go to the hairdresser in a crescent moon: it will grow faster. It is no nonsense. Since I cut my bangs to the Cleopatra, the touch-ups last me for another 1-1.5 weeks. As I reviewed the bangs in a growing room, in just a couple of weeks I was returning to the hairdresser.

That affects hair removal. There are many people who take appointments to the beautician to shave by consulting the lunar calendar. The hair removal done as soon as the dwindling is the best because it lasts longer, lasts for another week until the next appointment.

The time T in seconds for a pendulum of length L feet to make one swing is given by Upper T=2\pi \sqrt((L)/(36)). How long is a
Andreyy89

Answer:

3.6ft

Explanation:

Using= 2*π*sqrt(L/32)

To solve for L, first move 2*n over:

T/(2*π) = sqrt(L/32)

Next,eliminate the square root by squaring both sides

(T/(2*π))2 = L/32

or

T2/(4π2) = L/32

Lastly, multiply both sides by 32 to yield:

32T2/(4π2) = L

and simplify:

8T²/π²= L

Hence, L(T) = 8T²/π²

But T = 2.1

Pi= 3.14

8(2.1)²/3.14²

35.28/9.85

= 3.6feet
