An oil tank is leaking into a lake at a rate of 0.1 m3/day. The oil slick forms a semicircular disk whose center is at the leak

site, and it has a thickness of 10−6 meters. How rapidly is the slick expanding when 0.5 cubic meters of oil have been leaked?

Answer:

17.9  m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the slick =  0.5 x π r² h--------------------------------- (1)

Where r = radius of slick

           h = thickness of slick, 10⁻⁶m

If 0.5m³ of oil leaked, then the radius of the semicircular slick can be calculated from equation (1)

V  =  0.5 x π r² h

0.5=  0.5 x  π x  r² x 10⁻⁶

r²   =  10⁶/ π

r =     10³/√π

dV/dt =   πrh dr/dt  + 0.5π r² dh/dt----------------------------------- (2)

Asumming the film thickness is constant , equation (2) becomes

dV/dt =   πrh dr/dt-------------------------------- (3)

dV/dt = 0.1m³/day

r=  10³/√π

dr/dt= rate of expansion of the slick

Substituting  into (3);

0.1 =  π x 10³/√π x 10⁻⁶ x dr/dt

dr/dt = 0.1  x 10⁶/ ( π x 10³/√π)

       =  17.9479 m/s

       ≅  17.9  m/s

How big is earth compared to Jupiter
Mashutka [201]
Jupiter has a diameter of about 88,695 miles (142,800 kilometers) which is more than 11 times the diameter of Earth. It’s volume is over 1,300 times the volume of Earth. This mean that Jupiter is so big that over 1,300 Earth could fit inside of it.

The Sugar Sweet Company is going to transport its sugar to market. It will cost $4500 to rent trucks, and it will cost an additi
MariettaO [177]
C(s) = 175s + 4500 or y = 175x + 4500

cost of 12 tons of sugar...
C(12) = 175(12) + 4500
C(12) = 2100 + 4500
C(12) = 6600....so 12 tons of sugar will cost u $ 6600

Find m angle 1 and m angle 3 in the kite.
stepladder [879]

Answer:

m∠1=39°, m∠3=51°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle 3 = 180-(39+90)

180-129=51

Angle 1 = 39 b/c of the corresponding angles.
