Water is leaking out of an inverted conical tank at a rate of 10,500 cm3/min at the same time that water is being pumped into th

e tank at a constant rate. the tank has height 6 m and the diameter at the top is 4 m. if the water level is rising at a rate of 20 cm/min when the height of the water is 2 m, find the rate at which water is being pumped into the tank. (round your answer to the nearest integer.)

The tank has a volume of \dfrac\pi3R^2H, where H=6\,\rm m is its height and R=\dfrac d2=2\,\rm m is its radius.

At any point, the water filling the tank and the tank itself form a pair of similar triangles (see the attached picture) from which we obtain the following relationship:

\dfrac26=\dfrac rh\implies r=\dfrac h3

The volume of water in the tank at any given time is

V=\dfrac\pi3r^2h

and can be expressed as a function of the water level alone:

V=\dfrac\pi3\left(\frac h3\right)^2h=\dfrac\pi{27}h^3

Implicity differentiating both sides with respect to time t gives

\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}=\dfrac\pi9h^2\,\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}

We're told the water level rises at a rate of \dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}=20\,\frac{\rm cm}{\rm min} at the time when the water level is h=2\,\mathrm m=200\,\mathrm{cm}, so the net change in the volume of water \dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt} can be computed:

\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}=\dfrac\pi9(200\,\mathrm{cm})^2\left(20\,\dfrac{\rm cm}{\rm min}\right)=\dfrac{800,000\pi}9\,\dfrac{\mathrm{cm}^3}{\rm min}

The net rate of change in volume is the difference between the rate at which water is pumped into the tank and the rate at which it is leaking out:

\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}=(\text{rate in})-(\text{rate out})

We're told the water is leaking out at a rate of 10,500\,\frac{\mathrm{cm}^3}{\rm min}, so we find the rate at which it's being pumped in to be

\dfrac{800,000\pi}9\,\dfrac{\mathrm{cm}^3}{\rm min}=(\text{rate in})-10,500\,\dfrac{\mathrm{cm}^3}{\rm min}

\implies\text{rate in}\approx289,753\,\dfrac{\mathrm{cm}^3}{\rm min}

What is the difference between pitch and volume?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Pitch is a measure of how high or low something sounds and is related to the speed of the vibrations that produce the sound. Volume is a measure of how loud or soft something sounds and is related to the strength of the vibrations.

Which of the following correctly describe electric field lines?
Xelga [282]

-- Electric field lines DO never cross.  <em>(A) </em>

-- Electric field lines that are close together DO indicate a stronger electric field. <em>(B) </em>

-- Electric field lines DO not affect the charge that created them.  <em>(C)</em>

-- Electric field lines DON'T begin on north poles and end on south poles.  North and South "poles" are the way we talk about magnets, not electric charges.

The rocket is fired vertically and tracked by the radar station shown. When θ reaches 66°, other corresponding measurements give
Flauer [41]

Answer:

velocity = 1527.52 ft/s

Acceleration = 80.13 ft/s²

Explanation:

We are given;

Radius of rotation; r = 32,700 ft

Radial acceleration; a_r = r¨ = 85 ft/s²

Angular velocity; ω = θ˙˙ = 0.019 rad/s

Also, angle θ reaches 66°

So, velocity of the rocket for the given position will be;

v = rθ˙˙/cos θ

so, v = 32700 × 0.019/ cos 66

v = 1527.52 ft/s

Acceleration is given by the formula ;

a = a_r/sinθ

For the given position,

a_r = r¨ - r(θ˙˙)²

Thus,

a = (r¨ - r(θ˙˙)²)/sinθ

Plugging in the relevant values, we obtain;

a = (85 - 32700(0.019)²)/sin66

a = (85 - 11.8047)/0.9135

a = 80.13 ft/s²
