If a fire is burning a building and it takes 2 hours to put it out using 2000 gal./min., what minimum diameter cylindrical tank

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The minimum diameter of the cylindrical tank needed to store the quantity needed to put out the fire is approximately 58.415 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

A gallon equals 0.134 cubic feet. First, we determine the amount of water ( $Q$ ), measured in cubic feet, needed to put out the fire under the assumption that water is consumed at constant rate:

$Q = \dot Q \cdot \Delta t$ (1)

Where:

$\dot Q$ - Volume rate, measured in feet per minute.

$\Delta t$ - Time, measured in minutes.

If we know that $\dot Q = 2000\,\frac{gal}{min}$ and $\Delta t = 120\,min$ , then the amount of water is:

$Q = \left(2000\,\frac{gal}{min} \right)\cdot (120\,min) \cdot \left(0.134\,\frac{ft^{3}}{gal} \right)$

$Q = 32160\,ft^{3}$

And the diameter of the cylindrical tank based on the capacity found above is determined by volume formula for a cylinder:

$Q = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D^{2}\cdot h$ (2)

Where:

$D$ - Diameter, measured in feet.

$h$ - Height, measured in feet.

If we know that $Q = 32160\,ft^{3}$ and $h = 12\,ft$ , then the minimum diameter is:

$D^{2} = \frac{4\cdot Q}{\pi\cdot h}$

$D = 2\cdot \sqrt{\frac{Q}{\pi\cdot h} }$

$D = 2\cdot \sqrt{\frac{32160\,ft^{3}}{\pi\cdot (12\,ft)} }$

$D \approx 58.415\,ft$

The minimum diameter of the cylindrical tank needed to store the quantity needed to put out the fire is approximately 58.415 feet.

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to y-3x=2 and that passes through (6,1)?

Artemon [7]

Try this solution (analytic method):

1. if new line is parallel to the given one (y=3x+2) it means the new line has a form y=3x+b, where b - number.

2. In order to calculate 'b', it need to substitute the coordinates of point (6;1) into the equation of the new line:

1=3*6+b, ⇒ b=-17.

3. If to make up the equation of the new line:

y=3x-17
