A 160-lb man carries a 5-lb can of paint up a helical staircase that encircles a silo with radius 20 ft. If the silo is 90 ft hi

Weight of man and paint = 160 + 5 = 165 total pounds.

Gravitational force is independent of the path taken so we can ignore the radius of the silo.

Work done = total weight x height

The problem says he climbs to the top so overall height is 90 feet

Work = 165 lbs x 90 ft = 14,850 ft-lbs

Levart [38]
Right now it is noon..... you are traveling 75 miles per hour meaning you'll move 75 miles... every hour. so you're 120 miles away so now we need to figure out the time.... to do this we already know 1 hour is 75 miles so now you can subtract one hour 120-75= 45 so 75 per hour, what would 45 be?..... so we can set up a fraction to figure out how long it takes to travel one minute.... so 60/75(the 60 is for minutes in an hour). which is .8 of a second to travel one mile so.... now you can multiply to check your work. .8*75=60 mins.... so now multiply.8*45(miles left)=36 so you'd get there at 1:36 it would take an hour and 36 mins to get to your destination going 75mph

A company rents water tanks shaped like cylinders. Each tank has a radius of 3 feet and a height of 2 feet. The cost is $4 per c
vivado [14]

Answer:

Cost to rent one tank=226.08 Dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius of the cylindrical tank=3 feet

Height of the tank= 2 feet

Cost to rent one tank= Volume of one tank * cost to rent one cubic feet of volume

Volume of the cylindrical tank:

                                         =\pi r^2

As,  \pi =\frac{22}{7}=3.14

Putting the values in the formula:

Volume of the tank:

                                    =3.14*(3*3)*2\\\\=3.14*9*2\\\\=3.14*18\\\\=56.52feet^3

Cost to rent one cubic feet= 4 Dollars

Cost to rent 56.52 Cubic feet of one tank;

   = 4*56.52

=226.08 Dollars
