A cooling tower for a nuclear reactor is to be constructed in the shape of a hyperboloid of one sheet. The diameter at the base

is 300 m and the minimum diameter, 500 m above the base, is 200 m. Find an equation for the tower. (Assume the position of the hyperboloid is such that the center is at the origin with its axis along the z-axis, and the minimum diameter at the center.)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation for a hyperboloid of one sheet, with center at the origen and axis along z-axis is:

(x/a)²  +  (y/b)²   -  (z/c)²  =  1                         (1)

We have to find a , b, and c

We can express equation (1)

(x/a)²  +  (y/b)²    =  (z/c)² + 1                 (2)

Now if we cut the hyperboloid with planes parallel to xy plane we get for  z = k       ( K = 1 , 2 , 3  and so on ) circles of different radius

(x/a)²  +  (y/b)²    =  (k/c)² + 1

at z = k = 0 at the base of the hyperboloid  d = 300   or r = 150 m

we have

(x/a)²  +  (y/b)²   = 1      

x²  +  y²   =   a²                a² = (150)²       a = b = 150

and    x²  +  y²  = (150)²

Now the other condition is at 200 m above the base d = 500 m   r = 250 m  minimum diameter then in equation (2)  we have:

(x/a)²  +  (y/b)²    =  (z/c)² + 1        

(1/a)² [ x² + y² ]  = (z/c)² + 1  

but   x²  +  y²  = r²    and in this case   r  =  250 m  then

(250)²/(150)²   =  (z/c)² + 1    ⇒ (62500/ 22500)  =  (200/c)² + 1

2,78  =  40000/c² + 1

2.78c²  =  40000  + c²

1.78c² = 40000

c²  =  40000/1.78

c²  = 22471.91

c = 149,91

Then we finally have the equation:

x²/(150)²   + y² /(150)² - z²/149,91  = 1

(03.03)<br> How does the graph of f(x) = (x – 9)^4-3 compare to the parent function g(x) =x^4?
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The child graph is shifted 9 units to the right. That's what the nine does. The graph also shifts 3 units down when compared to g(x).

I have put a graph in so that you can see the shifts for yourself.

The red line is g(x) = x^4

The blue line is f(x) = (x - 9)^4 - 3

The sum of all angles in an octagon is given by

180*(n-2) >>>>>>>>>with n = 8

180*(8-2) = 1080 degrees

A + B = 1080 .......where

A
  is the <span>angle of an octagon which is twice that of the other seven angles
</span><span>
B equals the sum of the other seven angles

If we assume each angle of B is equal to each other, then

B = x+x+x+x+x+x+x = 7x
</span>
And A = 2x

The equation that results is 

A + B = 2x +7x = 9x =1080

x = 120 degrees
2x = A = 240 degrees
