Answer:

These cells cause the reabsorption of bone, thus helping to regenerate bone

Explanation:

Osteoclasts are the cells that serve in the process of bone reabsorption. These cells perform the breakdown of extracellular matrix of bone and release the calcium into the blood. The activity of osteoclast cells is under regulation of calcitonin and parathyroid hormones. Calcitonin inhibits its activity while the parathyroid hormone serves to stimulate these cells to carry out bone reabsorption and bone regeneration.

A sand storage tank used by the highway department for winter storms is leaking. As the sand leaks out, it forms a conical pile.
harina [27]

Answer:

Rate of change of volume of the pile  = 54\pi

Explanation:

Given -

Rate of increase of the base of the pile = 0.75 inches per minute

Height of the pile = 2 * the radius of the base

Let "h"  be the height of the pile and "r" be the radius of the base.

Then h = 2* r

Radius "r" = 6 inches

Rate of change of radius i.e

\frac{dr}{dt} = 0.75

Volume of conical pile

\frac{\pi }{3} * r^2 * h\\= \frac{\pi }{3} * r^2 * 2 * r\\= \frac{\pi }{3} *2* r^3

Change in volume of conical pile

\frac{dV}{dt} =  \frac{dr}{dt}  * \frac{6* \pi * r^2 }{3}

Substituting the value of rate of change of radius, we get -

\frac{dV}{dt}  = 2 * \pi * (6^2) * (0.75)\\\frac{dV}{dt}  = 54 \pi

Rate of change of volume of the pile  = 54\pi
