The height of a cone is increasing at a rate of 10 cm/sec and its radius is decreasing so that its volume remains constant. How

fast is the radius changing when the radius is 4 cm and the height is 10 cm?

Answer:

dr/dt = -2 cm/s.

Explanation:

The volume of a cone is given by:

V=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2}h (1)

  • r is the radius
  • h is the height

Let's take the derivative with respect to time in each side of (1).

\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{3} \pi \frac{d}{dt}(r^{2}h)=\frac{1}{3} \pi \left(2r\frac{dr}{dt}h+r^{2}\frac{dh}{dt} \right) (2)

We know that:

  • dh/dt = 10 cm / s (rate increasing of height)
  • dV/dt = 0 (constant volume means no variation with respect of time)
  • r = 4 cm
  • h = 10 cm

We can calculate how fast is the radius changing using the above information.

0=\frac{1}{3} \pi \left( 2\cdot 4\cdot \frac{dr}{dt} \cdot 10 + 4^{2}\cdot 10)\right  

Therefore dr/dt will be:

\frac{dr}{dt}=-\frac{160}{80}=-2 cm/s

The minus signs means that r is decreasing.

I hope it helps you!

A 73 kg swimmer dives horizontally off a 462 kg raft initially at rest. If the diver's speed immediately after leaving the raft
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

Corresponding raft speed = -0.875 m/s (the minus sign indicates that the raft moves in the direction opposite to the diver)

Explanation:

Law of conservation of momentum gives that the momentum of the diver and the raft before the dive is equal to the momentum of the diver and the raft after the dive.

And since the raft and the diver are initially at rest, the momentum of the diver after the dive is equal and opposite to the momentum experienced by the raft after the dive.

(Final momentum of the diver) + (Final momentum of the raft) = 0

Final Momentum of the diver = (mass of the diver) × (diving velocity of the diver)

Mass of the diver = 73 kg

Diving velocity of the diver = 5.54 m/s

Momentum of the diver = 73 × 5.54 = 404.42 kgm/s

Momentum of the raft = (mass of the raft) × (velocity of the raft)

Mass of the raft = 462 kg

Velocity of the raft = v

Momentum of the raft = 462 × v = (462v) kgm/s

404.42 + 462v = 0

462v = -404.42

v = (-404.42/462) = -0.875 m/s (the minus sign indicates that the raft moves in the direction opposite to the diver)

Hope this Helps!!!
