Using <span>r </span> to represent the radius and <span>t </span> for time, you can write the first rate as:

<span><span><span><span>dr</span><span>dt</span></span>=4<span>mms</span></span> </span>

or

<span><span>r=r<span>(t)</span>=4t</span> </span>

The formula for a solid sphere's volume is:

<span><span>V=V<span>(r)</span>=<span>43</span>π<span>r3</span></span> </span>

When you take the derivative of both sides with respect to time...

<span><span><span><span>dV</span><span>dt</span></span>=<span>43</span>π<span>(3<span>r2</span>)</span><span>(<span><span>dr</span><span>dt</span></span>)</span></span> </span>

...remember the Chain Rule for implicit differentiation. The general format for this is:

<span><span><span><span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dt</span></span>=<span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span></span>⋅<span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span><span>dt</span></span></span> </span>with <span><span>V=V<span>(r)</span></span> </span> and <span><span>r=r<span>(t)</span></span> </span>.</span>

So, when you take the derivative of the volume, it is with respect to its variable <span>r </span> <span><span>(<span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span></span>)</span> </span>, but we want to do it with respect to <span>t </span> <span><span>(<span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dt</span></span>)</span> </span>. Since <span><span>r=r<span>(t)</span></span> </span> and <span><span>r<span>(t)</span></span> </span> is implicitly a function of <span>t </span>, to make the equality work, you have to multiply by the derivative of the function <span><span>r<span>(t)</span></span> </span> with respect to <span>t </span> <span><span>(<span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span><span>dt</span></span>)</span> </span>as well. That way, you're taking a derivative along a chain of functions, so to speak (<span><span>V→r→t</span> </span>).

Now what you can do is simply plug in what <span>r </span> is (note you were given diameter) and what <span><span><span>dr</span><span>dt</span></span> </span> is, because <span><span><span>dV</span><span>dt</span></span> </span> describes the rate of change of the volume over time, of a sphere.

<span><span><span><span><span>dV</span><span>dt</span></span>=<span>43</span>π<span>(3<span><span>(20mm)</span>2</span>)</span><span>(4<span>mms</span>)</span></span> </span><span><span>=6400π<span><span>mm3</span>s</span></span> </span></span>

Since time just increases, and the radius increases as a function of time, and the volume increases as a function of a constant times the radius cubed, the volume increases faster than the radius increases, so we can't just say the two rates are the same.

From the law of conservation of momentum
m1u1+ m2u2= m1v1+ m2v2
110*8+ 110*-10= 110*-10 + 110* v2

To cross the river a swimmer chooses the direction minimizing the amount of time spent in the water. The swimmer swims at a cons
Lynna [10]

Answer:

304 meters downstream

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The speed of the swimmer = 2.00 m/s

The width of the river = 73.0 m

The speed of the river = 8.00 m/s

Therefore;

The direction of the swimmer's resultant velocity = tan⁻¹(8/2) ≈ 75.96° downstream

The distance downstream the swimmer will reach the opposite shore = 4 × 73 = 304 m downstream

The distance downstream the swimmer will reach the opposite shore = 304 m downstream
