Which best describes reflection and refraction?

1 answer:

7 0

Refraction is when it is broken light, or how much propagating waves are bent. Reflection is light bouncing off of an object and being transferred somewhere else, like a flashlight on a mirror whose light is seen on the ceiling.

A swimming pool has the shape of a right circular cylinder with radius 21 feet and height 10 feet. Suppose that the pool is full

AysviL [449]

Answer:

The water required to pump all the water to a platform 2 feet above the top of the pool is is 6061310.32 foot-pound.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius = 21 feet

Height = 10 feet

Weighing = 62.5 pounds/cubic

Work = 4329507.37572

Height = 2 feet

Let's look at a horizontal slice of water at a height of h from bottom of pool

We need to calculate the area of slice

Using formula of area

$A=\pi r^2$

Put the value into the formula

$A=\pi\times21^2$

$A=441\pi\ feet^2$

Thickness of slice $t=\Delta h\ ft$

The volume is,

$V=(441\pi\times\Delta h)\ ft^3$

We need to calculate the force

Using formula of force

$F=W\times V$

Where, W = water weight

V = volume

Put the value into the formula

$F=62.5\times(441\pi\times\Delta h)$

$F=27562.5\pi\times\Delta h\ lbs$

We need to calculate the work done

Using formula of work done

$W=F\times d$

Put the value into the formula

$W=27562.5\pi\times\Delta h\times(10-h)\ ft\ lbs$

We do this by integrating from h = 0 to h = 10

We need to find the total work,

Using formula of work done

$W=\int_{0}^{h}{W}$

Put the value into the formula

$W=\int_{0}^{10}{27562.5\pi\\times(10-h)}dh$

$W=27562.5\pi(10h-\dfrac{h^2}{2})_{0}^{10}$

$W=27562.5\pi(10\times10-\dfrac{100}{2}-0)$

$W=4329507.37572$

To pump 2 feet above platform, then each slice has to be lifted an extra 2 feet,

So, the total distance to lift slice is (12-h) instead of of 10-h

We need to calculate the water required to pump all the water to a platform 2 feet above the top of the pool

Using formula of work done

$W=\int_{0}^{h}{W}$

Put the value into the formula

$W=\int_{0}^{10}{27562.5\pi\\times(12-h)}dh$

$W=27562.5\pi(12h-\dfrac{h^2}{2})_{0}^{10}$

$W=27562.5\pi(12\times10-\dfrac{100}{2}-0)$

$W=1929375\pi$

$W=6061310.32\ foot- pound$

Hence, The water required to pump all the water to a platform 2 feet above the top of the pool is is 6061310.32 foot-pound.
