A sand storage tank used by the highway department for winter storms is leaking. As the sand leaks out, it forms a conical pile.

The radius of the base of the pile increases at the rate of 0.75inches per min. The height of the pile is always twice the radius of the base. Find the rate at which the volume of the pile is increasing when the radius of the base is 6

Answer:

Rate of change of volume of the pile  = 54\pi

Explanation:

Given -

Rate of increase of the base of the pile = 0.75 inches per minute

Height of the pile = 2 * the radius of the base

Let "h"  be the height of the pile and "r" be the radius of the base.

Then h = 2* r

Radius "r" = 6 inches

Rate of change of radius i.e

\frac{dr}{dt} = 0.75

Volume of conical pile

\frac{\pi }{3} * r^2 * h\\= \frac{\pi }{3} * r^2 * 2 * r\\= \frac{\pi }{3} *2* r^3

Change in volume of conical pile

\frac{dV}{dt} =  \frac{dr}{dt}  * \frac{6* \pi * r^2 }{3}

Substituting the value of rate of change of radius, we get -

\frac{dV}{dt}  = 2 * \pi * (6^2) * (0.75)\\\frac{dV}{dt}  = 54 \pi

Rate of change of volume of the pile  = 54\pi

yKpoI14uk [10]
In this case, the protozoa will be in category B - animal-like protist.

Animals consume other living organisms to obtain energy. Archaea and bacteria are a high level classification of different kinds of microorganisms that include many different subtypes. So these are not appropriate answers as they are not specific enough. Plant-like protists can photosynthesize which these protozoans cannot. Fungus does have similarities with animals in that it consumes living tissue to survive, however animal-like protist is the best fit for this questions.

What are factors that affect the state of matter
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

If you consider the particles of each state of matter, it becomes evident that pressure and temperature are the major factors that affect the transitions of matter.

Temperature can cause molecules to move slower or faster.

Pressure can cause molecules to become more or less packed together.
