The rate (in cubic feet per hour) that a spherical snowball melts is proportional to the snowball's volume raised to the 2/3 pow

er. (This assumes that the rate snow melts is proportional to the area exposed to the air -- i.e. the surface area of the snowball.) If a snowball of radius 1 foot (volume 4/3 \[Pi] cubic feet) melts in 6 hours, how long will it take a snowball of raduis 3 feet (volume 36 cubic feet) to melt?

Answer:

A 3 feet radius snowball will melt in 54 hours.

Explanation:

As we can assume that the rate of  snowball takes to melt is proportional to the surface area, then the rate for a 3 feet radius will be:

T= A(3 ft)/A(1 ft) * 6 hr

A is the area of the snowballs. For a spherical geometry is computing as:

A=4.pi.R^2

Then dividing the areas:

A(3 feet)/A(1 foot) = (4 pi (3 ft)^2)/(4 pi (1 ft)^2) =  (36pi ft^2)/(4pi ft^2)= 9

Finally, the rate for the 3 feet radius snowball is:

T= 9 * 6 hr = 54 hr

Answer:

a=4.44\frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

First we have to find the time required for train to travel 60 meters and impact the car, this is an uniform linear motion:

t=\frac{d}{v}\\\\t=\frac{60m}{30\frac{m}{s}}=2s

The reaction time of the driver before starting to accelerate was 0.50 seconds. So, remaining time for driver is 1.5 seconds.

Now, we have to calculate the distance traveled for the driver in this 0.5 seconds before he start to accelerate. Again, is an uniform linear motion:

d=vt\\d=20\frac{m}{s}(0.5s)=10m

The driver cover 10 meters in this 0.5 seconds. So, the remaining distance to be cover in 1.5 seconds by the driver are 35 meters. We calculate the minimum acceleration required by the car in order to cross the tracks before the train arrive, Since this is an uniformly accelerated motion, we use the following equation:

d=v_0t+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\a=\frac{2(d-v_0t)}{t^2}\\a=\frac{2(35m-20\frac{m}{s}*1.5s}{(1.5s)^2}\\a=4.44\frac{m}{s^2}
