The ideal mechanical advantage of a slope is given by the ratio between the output load, which is simply the weight of the object (), and the input force applied to move the object along the slope:

The energy conservation law states that the potential energy of the object when it reaches the final height h is equal to the work done to move the object along the distance of the slope , i.e.

From this we find

Therefore, we can substitute this into the formula of the ideal mechanical advantage and calculate its value:

a circle is inscribed in a square. the circumference of the circle is increading at a constant rate of 6 inches per second. As t

Burka [1]

Answer:

The rate at which Perimeter of the square is increasing is $\frac{24}{\pi} \ in/secs$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Circumference of the circle = $2\pi r$

Rate of change of in circumference = 6 in/secs

We need to find the rate at which the perimeter of the square is increasing

Solution:

Now we know that;

$\frac{d(2\pi r)}{dt} =6\\\\2\pi\frac{dr}{dt}=6\\\\\frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{6}{2\pi}\\\\\frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{3}{\pi}$

Now we know that;

side of the square= diameter of the circle

side of the square = $2r$

Now Perimeter of the square is given by 4 times length of the side.

$P=4\times 2r =8r$

Now we need to find the rate at which Perimeter is increasing so we will find the derivative of perimeter.

$\frac{dP}{dt}= \frac{d(8r)}{dt}\\\\\frac{dP}{dt}= 8\times\frac{dr}{dt}$

But $\frac{dr}{dt} =\frac{3}{\pi}$

So we get;

$\frac{dP}{dt}= 8\times\frac{3}{\pi}\\\\\frac{dP}{dt}= \frac{24}{\pi}\ in/sec$

Hence The rate at which Perimeter of the square is increasing is $\frac{24}{\pi} \ in/secs$ .
