A gas station stores its gasoline in a tank under the ground. The tank is a cylinder lying horizontally on its side. (In other w

hoa [83]

Answer:

64,717.36 Joule is the total amount of work needed to pump the gasoline out of the tank.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of cylinder = V

Radius of cylinder = r = 0.5 m

Height of the cylinder = 5 m

Volume of cylinder = $\pi r^2h$

$V=3.14\times (0.5 m)^2\times 5 =3.925 m^3$

Mass of gasoline = m

Density of gasoline = d = $673 kg/m^3$

$m=d\times V=673 kg/m^3\times 3.925 m^3=2,641.525 kg$

Work done to pump the gasoline out of the tank W

Acceleration due to gravity = g $.8 m/s^2$

The center of gravity of fuel in fully filled tank will be centre so, the value of h = 2 m + 0.5 m = 2.5 m

$W =m\times g\times h$

$W=2,641.525 kg\times 9.8 m/s^2\times 2.5 m=64,717.36 J$

64,717.36 Joule is the total amount of work needed to pump the gasoline out of the tank.

Two triangles can be formed with the given information. Use the Law of Sines to solve the triangles. A = 56°, a = 16, b = 17 (5

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

B = 61.75°

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the Law of Sines is given as:

a/ sin A = b/ sin B

In the question, we are given the following values

A = 56°, a = 16, b = 17

We are to solve for B

Hence,

16/ sin 56° = 17/sin B

Cross Multiply

sin B × 16 = sin 56° × 17

sin B = sin 56° × 17/16

sin B = 0.88

B = arc sin(0.88)

B = 61.74536°

Approximately B = 61.75°
