Answer:

0.15 rad/s

Step-by-step explanation:

A rocket is launched at the rate of 11 feet per second from a point on the ground 15 feet from an observer.

To find rate of change of angle when the rocket is 30 feet above the ground

Height of rocket, y = 30 feet

Speed of rocket, \dfrac{dy}{dt}= 11 ft/s

Distance of observer from rocket, d = 15 feet

Angle between observer and rocket at height 30 feet is Ф

\tan\theta=\dfrac{30}{15}=2

\tan\theta=\dfrac{\text{Perpendicular}}{\text{base}}

Distance between observer and rocket launch doesn't change.

So, d=15 will remain constant.

\tan\theta=\dfrac{y}{d}

15\tan\theta=y

differentiate w.r.t t

15\sec^2\theta \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{dy}{dt}

15(1+\tan^2\theta)\cdot \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=11

\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{11}{15(1+2^2)}

\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{11}{75}\ rad/s\approx 0.15\ rad/s

Hence, The rate of change of the angle of elevation is 0.15 rad/s

Let the angle of elevation is x and the height of the rocket from the ground is y

tanx = y/15

by differentiating both sides with respect to T

sec²x·dx/dt = (dy/dt)/15

at y = 30 , the hypotenuse of the triangle = 15√5

sec²x=(15√5/15)²=5

5 dx/dt = 11/15

dx/dt = 11/75 rad/sec

Alja [10]

Answer:

Replace the value of r in the formula :

A = π • r²

A = π • 6²

A = 113,097

Since you need to round off your answer to one decimal, your final answer is :

A = 113.1 square ft
