Hey!

Hope this helps...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okay... so we know that the train is moving north, which means the Apposing wind (and Friction) would be coming from the south.

We also know that the wind is coming from the West.

And based upon this information, we know that the Smoke has to be going South West because when an Apposing wind is pushed by a natural wind, the object being affected by both winds moves in both directions (a.k.a. diagonal)...

If you need to explain anything, please ask, I also recommend looking at the photo I made below...

Find an equation of the sphere with center (4, −12, 8) and radius 10. use an equation to describe its intersection with each of
xxMikexx [17]
<span>Sphere: (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100 Intersection in xy-plane: (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 = 36 Intersection in xz-plane: DNE Intersection in yz-plane: (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 84 The desired equation is quite simple. Let's first create an equation for the sphere centered at the origin: x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 10^2 Now let's translate that sphere to the desired center (4, -12, 8). To do that, just subtract the center coordinate from the x, y, and z variables. So (x - 4)^2 + (y - -12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 10^2 (x - 4)^2 + (y - -12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100 Might as well deal with that double negative for y, so (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100 And we have the desired equation. Now for dealing with the coordinate planes. Basically, for each coordinate plane, simply set the coordinate value to 0 for the axis that's not in the desired plane. So for the xy-plane, set the z value to 0 and simplify. So let's do that for each plane: xy-plane: (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100 (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (0 - 8)^2 = 100 (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (-8)^2 = 100 (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + 64 = 100 (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 = 36 xz-plane: (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100 (x - 4)^2 + (0 + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100 (x - 4)^2 + 12^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100 (x - 4)^2 + 144 + (z - 8)^2 = 100 (x - 4)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = -44 And since there's no possible way to ever get a sum of 2 squares to be equal to a negative number, the answer to this intersection is DNE. This shouldn't be a surprise since the center point is 12 units from this plane and the sphere has a radius of only 10 units. yz-plane: (x - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100 (0 - 4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100 (-4)^2 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100 16 + (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 100 (y + 12)^2 + (z - 8)^2 = 84</span>
