<span> </span>For any prism-shaped geometry, the volume (V) is assumed by the product of cross-sectional area (A) and height (h). 

<span> V = Ah </span>

<span>
Distinguishing with respect to time gives the relationship between the rates. 
dV/dt = A*dh/dt</span>

<span> in the meantime the area is not altering </span>

<span>
dV/dt = π*(1 ft)^2*(-0.5 ft/min) </span>

<span>
dV/dt = -π/2 ft^3/min ≈ -1.571 ft^3/min 

Water is draining from the tank at the rate of π/2 ft^3/min.</span>

Work done can be describe as?​
Neko [114]

Explanation:

In physics, work is the energy transferred to or from an object via the application of force along a displacement. In its simplest form, it is often represented as the product of force and displacement. A force is said to do positive work if (when applied) it has a component in the direction of the displacement of the point of application. A force does negative work if it has a component opposite to the direction of the displacement at the point of application of the force.

Quick Facts: Common symbols, SI unit ...

Work

A baseball pitcher does positive work on the ball by applying a force to it over the distance it moves while in his grip.

Common symbols

W

SI unit

joule (J)

Other units

Foot-pound, Erg

In SI base units

1 kg⋅m2⋅s−2

Derivations from

other quantities

W = F ⋅ s

W = τ θ

Dimension

M L2 T−2

Close

For example, when a ball is held above the ground and then dropped, the work done by the gravitational force on the ball as it falls is equal to the weight of the ball (a force) multiplied by the distance to the ground (a displacement). When the force F is constant and the angle between the force and the displacement s is θ, then the work done is given by:

{\displaystyle W=Fs\cos {\theta }}{\displaystyle W=Fs\cos {\theta }}

Work is a scalar quantity, so it has only magnitude and no direction. Work transfers energy from one place to another, or one form to another. The SI unit of work is the joule (J), the same unit as for energy.

When a plant is entering the calvin cycle of photosythesis______.
Korolek [52]
The Calvin cycle<span> refers to the light-independent reactions in photosynthesis that take place in three key steps. Although the </span>Calvin Cycle<span> is not directly dependent on light, it is indirectly dependent on light since the necessary energy carriers (ATP and NADPH) are products of light-dependent reactions.

So basically it indirectly needs the light, even it's called light-independant reaction.

So the answer is the last one.</span>

Along some shorelines, incoming waves cause the water to simply rise and fall rather that form a surf zone. What does this tell
NARA [144]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Along some shorelines, incoming waves cause the water to simply rise and fall and not form surfs because of the steepness of the shorelines. Long period waves wont form surfs at steep shores because of the breaking and unstability of waves. Wave breaks at the shallow waters. The breaking of the waves depends upon H/L ratio.
