Answer:

The rate at which the height of the pile is \dfrac{2}{5\pi}.

Explanation:

Given that,

Height = radius = 5 m

Rate = 10 m³/s

We need to calculate the rate at which the height of the pile

Using formula of volume

V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi\times r^2\times h

r = h,

On differentiating

\dfrac{dV}{dt}=\pi\times h^2\times\dfrac{dh}{dt}

Put the value into the formula

10=\pi\times25\times\dfrac{dh}{dt}

\dfrac{dh}{dt}=\dfrac{10}{25\pi}

\dfrac{dh}{dt}=\dfrac{2}{5\pi}

Hence, The rate at which the height of the pile is \dfrac{2}{5\pi}.

Answer:

0.127 m/s

Explanation:

Let the diameter of the conical pile is d.

height of the conical pile = d/2

dV/dt = 10m^3/s

h = 5 m

then, d = 2 x h = 2 x 5 = 10 m

Volume of cone is given by

V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h

where, r is the radius of the pile.

r = d/2 and h = d/2 , it means r = h

V=\frac{1}{3}\pi \times h^{3}

Differentiate with respect to t on both the sides

\frac{dV}{dh}=\frac{1}{3}\pi \times 3h^{2}\times \frac{dh}{dt}

by substituting the values

10=\frac{1}{3}\pi \times 3\times 5\times 5\times \frac{dh}{dt}

dh/dt = 0.127 m/s

Thus, the rate of change of height is 0.127 m/s.

An observer notices that 12 waves pass by in 4 seconds. What is the frequency of these waves? 0.33 Hz 16 Hz 48 Hz 3 Hz
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Frequency = 3 Hz

Explanation:

Frequency is a measure of Hertz. Recall that Hertz is the unit expressing cycles/second, where one second is the denominator of the fraction for simplicity. If there are 12 waves every four seconds, and one wave represents one cycle, dividing 12 waves by 4 seconds will give the answer of 3 waves (or cycles) per one second.

What is a prokaryote cell/ eukaryote cell?
Wewaii [24]
A prokaryote is a microscopic single-celled organism that has neither a distinct nucleus with a membrane nor other specialized organelles. Prokaryotes include the bacteria and cyanobacteria.

A eukaryote is an organism consisting of a cell or cells in which the genetic material is DNA in the form of chromosomes contained within a distinct nucleus. Eukaryotes include all living organisms other than the eubacteria and archaebacteria.

Barnard’s Star is a red dwarf. It is located 5.9 light years from Earth. (One light year is the same as 9.46 trillion kilometers
mote1985 [20]
A star is located 5.9 light years from Earth.
We know that : 1 light year = 9.46  trillion kilometers.
We will calculate the distance in trillion kilometers multiplying the number of light years by 9.46:
5.9 * 9.46 = 55.814
Answer: The distance is 55.814 trillion km.
