A cube-shaped water tank having 6 ft side lengths is being filled with water. The bottom is solid metal but the sides of the tan

k are thin glass which can only withstand a maximum force of 200 lb. How high (in ft) can the water reach before the sides shatter?
(Assume a density of water rho = 62.4 lb/ft3.
Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answer:

0.033 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g = 32.2 ft/s2 and h be the maximum height that water can be filled before the sides shatter.

Pressure is distributed from 0 to maximum at the bottom like the following equation:

P = \rho gh

So the force generated by water pressure on the side of the tank is

F = PA = \rho ghs/2

where s = 6ft is the side length of the tank. This force cannot be larger than 200lb

\rho ghs/2 \leq 200

62.4*32.2*h*6/2 \leq 200

h \leq 0.033 ft

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x -8 =8x +4/2

3x -8 =8x +2

3x -3x -8 = 8x -3x +2 (subtract 3x both sides )

-8 = 5x +2

-8-2 =5x+2 -2  (subtract 2 both sides )

-10 =5x

-10/5 = 5x/5 (divide 5 both sides)

-2 = x

Solve 5y'' + 3y' – 2y = 0, y(0) = 0, y'(O) = 2.8 y(t) =( Preview
Karolina [17]

Answer:

y=\frac{4}{5}e^{t}-\frac{4}{5}e^{-\frac{2}{5}t}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation 5y'' + 3y' - 2y =0 can be written as

(5D^{2}+3D-2)y(t)=0

Solving for complementary function we have Roots of (5D^{2}+3D-2) as follows

(5D^{2}+5D-2D-2)

5D(D+1)-2(D+1)=0\\\\(5D-2)(D+1)=0\\\\\therefore D=-1\\D=+2/5

Thus the complementary function becomes

y=y=c_{1}e^{m_{1}t}+c_{2}e^{m_{2}t}

where

m_{1},m_{2} are calculated roots

thus solution becomes

y=c_{1}e^{-t}+c_{2}e^{\frac{2}{5}t}

Now to solve for the coefficients we use the given boundary conditions

y(0)=0\\\\\therefore c_{1}+c_{2}=0\\\\y'(0)=-c_{1}+\frac{2}{5}c_{2}=2.8\\\\\therefore c_{2}+\frac{2}{5}c_{2}=2.8\\\\c_{2}=2\\\\\therefore c_{1}=-2}

hence the solution becomes

y=-2e^-{t}+2e^{\frac{2}{5}t}

Cyrus is inviting 11 friends over for pizza. He would like to have enough pizza so each friend can have 1/4 of a pizza. About ho
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Cyrus needs to order 3 full pizzas to feed his 11 friends .

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of friends invited  = 11

Share of pizza for each friend = 1/4 pizza

Now,  as  1 friend eats 1/4 of  a pizza.

⇒  11 friends eat  = 11 \times \frac{1}{4}  = 2.75

So, 11 friends can eat 2 .75 pizza.

Since pizza come as a whole number.

And 2. 75 is nearly equal to 3.00

Hence,  Cyrus needs to order 3 full pizzas to feed his 11 friends .
