Answer:

Distance covered by Tara is 9 km.

Displacement of Tara is 6.71 km.

Explanation:

Distance is the total path length covered by a body. Here, the total path length is the sum of all the distances covered in each directions.

So, total distance is given as:

Distance, D=5+3+1=9\ km

Now, displacement only depends on the initial and final position of the body. Let the initial position of Tara be represented by the origin O(0,0) and the final position be represented by 'C' as shown in figure. Let the north direction be positive y axis and east direction be positive x axis.

Then from the figure, the final position 'C' will be at (3,6).

Therefore, using distance formula between two points, we find the displacement as 'OC' which is given as:

OC=\sqrt{(6-0)^2+(3-0)^2}=\sqrt{6^2+3^2}=\sqrt{36+9}=\sqrt{45}=6.71\ km

Therefore, the displacement of Tara is 6.71 km.

A vertical cylindrical tank 10 ft in diameter, has an inflow line of 0.3 ft inside diameter and an outflow line of 0.4 ft inside
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

\frac{dh}{dt} = 1.3 \times 10^{-3} \frac{ft}{s}, level is rising.

Explanation:

Since liquid water is a incompresible fluid, density can be eliminated of the equation of Mass Conservation, which is simplified as follows:

\dot V_{in} - \dot V_{out} = \frac{dV_{tank}}{dt}

\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D_{in}^2 \cdot v_{in}-\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D_{out}^2 \cdot v_{out}= \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D_{tank}^{2} \cdot \frac{dh}{dt} \\D_{in}^2 \cdot v_{in} - D_{out}^2 \cdot v_{out} = D_{tank}^{2} \cdot \frac{dh}{dt} \\\frac{dh}{dt}  = \frac{D_{in}^2 \cdot v_{in} - D_{out}^2 \cdot v_{out}}{D_{tank}^{2}}

By replacing all known variables:

\frac{dh}{dt} = \frac{(0.3 ft)^{2}\cdot (5 \frac{ft}{s} ) - (0.4 ft)^{2} \cdot (2 \frac{ft}{s} )}{(10 ft)^{2}}\\\frac{dh}{dt} = 1.3 \times 10^{-3} \frac{ft}{s}

The positive sign of the rate of change of the tank level indicates a rising behaviour.
