Answer:

0.0221 feet per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{Volume of a cone}=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h

If the Base Diameter = Height of the Cone

The radius of the Cone = h/2

Therefore,

\text{Volume of the cone}=\dfrac{\pi h}{3} (\dfrac{h}{2}) ^2 \\V=\dfrac{\pi h^3}{12}

Rate of Change of the Volume, \dfrac{dV}{dt}=\dfrac{3\pi h^2}{12}\dfrac{dh}{dt}

Since gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 10 cubic feet per minute. Therefore, the Volume of the cone is increasing at a rate of 10 cubic feet per minute.

\dfrac{dV}{dt}=10$ ft^3/min

We want to determine how fast is the height of the pile is increasing when the pile is 24 feet high.

We have:

\dfrac{3\pi h^2}{12}\dfrac{dh}{dt}=10\\\\$When h=24$ feet$\\\dfrac{3\pi *24^2}{12}\dfrac{dh}{dt}=10\\144\pi \dfrac{dh}{dt}=10\\ \dfrac{dh}{dt}= \dfrac{10}{144\pi}\\ \dfrac{dh}{dt}=0.0221$ feet per minute

When the pile is 24 feet high, the height of the pile is increasing at a rate of 0.0221 feet per minute.

Robin has 10 books. There is enough space on a shelf for 4 books. In how many ways can 4 of the 10 books be
aliina [53]

The number of arrangements of the books is an illustration of permutation

The books can be arranged in 5040 ways

<h3>How to determine the number of arrangements?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Total books, n = 10
  • Books to arrange, r = 4

The number of arrangements is calculated as:

Ways = nPr

Substitute the given values

Ways = ¹⁰P₄

Apply the permutation formula

Ways = 10!/(10 - 4)!

Evaluate the quotient

Ways = 5040

Hence, the books can be arranged in 5040 ways
