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

Describe the factors that influence the development and type of soil in a certain area.
arsen [322]

Soil research has shown that soil profiles are influenced by five separate, yet interacting, factors: parent material, climate, topography, organisms, and time. Soil scientists call these the factors of soil formation

In corn, smooth kernels (K) are dominant to wrinkled kernels (k).
Roman55 [17]

Heterozygous means 2 different zygotes. Since Smooth kernels are dominant, Zygotes KK and Kk will be smooth and kk will be wrinkled.

If you were to set up a Punnett Square chart like:

           K     k

   K   (KK)    (Kk)

   k   (Kk)     (kk)

the ratio for smooth to winkle would be  3 : 1

Which Will be 75% Smooth  and 25% Wrinkle

Jennipher was asked by her mother to take a certain kind of fish in a bucket full of water so that she can prepare it for meal.w
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

The fish use reacting behavioural mechanism in order to protect itself from the danger.

The fish uses reacting behavioural mechanism when the fish sense any type of danger surrounds it. This behaviour is a type of defense mechanisms which is used to defend and protect itself.

The fish apply electric shock in order to protect itself from the attackers and give harm to the other organisms which comes in contact with it so we can conclude that the fish use reacting behavioural mechanism in order to protect itself from the danger.
