Answer:
17.9 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the slick = 0.5 x π r² h--------------------------------- (1)
Where r = radius of slick
h = thickness of slick, 10⁻⁶m
If 0.5m³ of oil leaked, then the radius of the semicircular slick can be calculated from equation (1)
V = 0.5 x π r² h
0.5= 0.5 x π x r² x 10⁻⁶
r² = 10⁶/ π
r = 10³/√π
dV/dt = πrh dr/dt + 0.5π r² dh/dt----------------------------------- (2)
Asumming the film thickness is constant , equation (2) becomes
dV/dt = πrh dr/dt-------------------------------- (3)
dV/dt = 0.1m³/day
r= 10³/√π
dr/dt= rate of expansion of the slick
Substituting into (3);
0.1 = π x 10³/√π x 10⁻⁶ x dr/dt
dr/dt = 0.1 x 10⁶/ ( π x 10³/√π)
= 17.9479 m/s
≅ 17.9 m/s
Answer:
1. 516 ppm; 2. 561 ppm
Step-by-step explanation:
1. CO₂ increase at old rate
Time = 2100 - 2010 = 90 years
Increase in CO₂ = 90 yr × (1.4 ppm/1 yr) = 126 ppm
CO₂ in 2010 = 390 + 126 = 516 ppm
At the old rate, the CO₂ concentration in 2100 will be 516 ppm.
2. CO₂ increase at new rate
Time = 2100 - 2010 = 90 years
Increase in CO₂ = 90 yr × (1.9 ppm/1 yr) = 171 ppm
CO₂ in 2010 = 390 + 171 = 561 ppm
At the new rate, the CO₂ concentration in 2100 will be 561 ppm.
Answer:
740
Step-by-step explanation:
If t represents the number of tents made, then 4.5t represents the amount of canvas needed. We have ...
4.5t = 3330
t = 3330/4.5 = 740
740 tents could be made.
