Answer:

\dfrac{dz}{dt}=0.65\ ft/s

Explanation:

Given that

x= 150 ft

\dfrac{dy}{dt}= 7\ ft/s

y= 14 ft

From the diagram

z^2=x^2+y^2

When ,x= 150 ft and y= 14 ft

z^2=150^2+14^2

z=\sqrt{150^2+15^2}

z=150.74 ft

z^2=x^2+y^2

By differentiating with respect to time t

2z\dfrac{dz}{dt}= 2x\dfrac{dx}{dt}+2y\dfrac{dy}{dt}

z\dfrac{dz}{dt}= x\dfrac{dx}{dt}+y\dfrac{dy}{dt}

Here x is constant that is why

\dfrac{dx}{dt}=0

z\dfrac{dz}{dt}= y\dfrac{dy}{dt}

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

150.74\times \dfrac{dz}{dt}=14\times 7

\dfrac{dz}{dt}=\dfrac{14\times 7}{150.74}\ ft/s

\dfrac{dz}{dt}=0.65\ ft/s

Therefore the distance between balloon and observer increasing with 0.65 ft/s.

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

Resistencia = 12.5 Ohmios

Explanation:

Dados los siguientes parámetros;

Voltaje = 3.5 Volts

Corriente = 0.28 Amps

Para encontrar el resistencia;

La ley de Ohm establece que a temperatura constante, la corriente que fluye en un circuito eléctrico es directamente proporcional al voltaje aplicado en los dos puntos e inversamente proporcional a la resistencia en el circuito eléctrico.

Matemáticamente, La ley de Ohm viene dada por la fórmula;

Voltaje = corriente * resistencia

Resistencia = voltaje/corriente

Resistencia = 3.5/0.28

Resistencia = 12.5 Ohmios

Por tanto, la resistencia del filamento de una linterna de bolsillo es de 12,5 ohmios.

Two difference between thrust and upthrust .
velikii [3]

Upthrust is the upward force exerted by fluids on the surface of an object immersed in fluids. Thrust:- It is the force acting perpendicular to the surface. Upthrust:- It is the upward force exerted by the fluid on the surface of an object immersed in liquid.

After a nucleus undergoes radioactive decay, its new mass number is:
Ivanshal [37]
Radioactive "decay" means particles and stuff shoot OUT of a nucleus.
After that happens, there's less stuff in the nucleus than there was before.
So the new mass number is always less than the original mass number.
