Answer:
dV = - 5.73*10⁹ m³/s
Step-by-step explanation:
Question: What is the rate of change of the volume of the prism at that instant (in cubic meters per second) ?
A function can be dependent on one or more variables. The change in the function due to a change in one o its variables is given by the functions derivative with respect to that variable. For functions that are composed of products of its variables, we may use the product rule to determine its derivative.
The volume of a square prism with base a and height h is given by
V = a²h
When the base and height are changing, we have
dV = 2ah(da/dt) + a²(dh/dt)
Given
a = 4 Km
h = 9 Km
da/dt = - 7 Km/min
dh/dt = 10 Km/min
we have
dV = 2(4 Km)(9 Km)(- 7 Km/min) + (4 Km)²(10 Km/min)
⇒ dV = - 504 Km³/min + 160 Km³/min = - 344 Km³/min
⇒ dV = - 5.73*10⁹ m³/s
It would be -25% !!!!!!!!
Answer:
The angle of elevation of the sun is 39⁰
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
height of the tree, h = 96 ft
length of the shadow, L = 120 ft
|
| 96ft
|
|
θ------------------------------------
120ft
Completing this triangle to cut across the top of the tree gives you a right angled triangle with θ as the angle of elevation of the sun.
Apply trig-ratio to determine the angle of elevation of the sun;
tanθ = opposite side / adjacent side
tanθ = 96 / 120
tanθ = 0.8
θ = tan⁻¹(0.8)
θ = 38.7⁰
θ = 39⁰
Therefore, the angle of elevation of the sun is 39⁰
You can just plug the coordinates in.
