How long does it take for a spaceship to get to the moon.

Ugo [173]

Answer:

about 3 days

It takes about 3 days for a spacecraft to reach the Moon. During that time a spacecraft travels at least 240,000 miles (386,400 kilometers) which is the distance between Earth and the Moon. The specific distance depends on the specific path chosen.

A gasoline tank has the shape of an inverted right circular cone with base radius 4 meters and height 5 meters. Gasoline is bein

RSB [31]

Answer:

h'=0.25m/s

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we need to start by drawing a diagram of the given situation. (See attached image).

So, the problem talks about an inverted circular cone with a given height and radius. The problem also tells us that water is being pumped into the tank at a rate of $8m^{3}/s$ . As you may see, the problem is talking about a rate of volume over time. So we need to relate the volume, with the height of the cone with its radius. This relation is found on the volume of a cone formula:

$V_{cone}=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2}h$

notie the volume formula has two unknowns or variables, so we need to relate the radius with the height with an equation we can use to rewrite our volume formula in terms of either the radius or the height. Since in this case the problem wants us to find the rate of change over time of the height of the gasoline tank, we will need to rewrite our formula in terms of the height h.

If we take a look at a cross section of the cone, we can see that we can use similar triangles to find the equation we are looking for. When using similar triangles we get:

$\frac {r}{h}=\frac{4}{5}$

When solving for r, we get:

$r=\frac{4}{5}h$

so we can substitute this into our volume of a cone formula:

$V_{cone}=\frac{1}{3} \pi (\frac{4}{5}h)^{2}h$

which simplifies to:

$V_{cone}=\frac{1}{3} \pi (\frac{16}{25}h^{2})h$

$V_{cone}=\frac{16}{75} \pi h^{3}$

So now we can proceed and find the partial derivative over time of each of the sides of the equation, so we get:

$\frac{dV}{dt}= \frac{16}{75} \pi (3)h^{2} \frac{dh}{dt}$

Which simplifies to:

$\frac{dV}{dt}= \frac{16}{25} \pi h^{2} \frac{dh}{dt}$

So now I can solve the equation for dh/dt (the rate of height over time, the velocity at which height is increasing)

So we get:

$\frac{dh}{dt}= \frac{(dV/dt)(25)}{16 \pi h^{2}}$

Now we can substitute the provided values into our equation. So we get:

$\frac{dh}{dt}= \frac{(8m^{3}/s)(25)}{16 \pi (4m)^{2}}$

so:

$\frac{dh}{dt}=0.25m/s$

Noticing large amounts of algal growth in her small farm pond, a farmer adds about 20 grass carp to feed on the abundant algae a

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

D. bacteria feeding on the large volume of carp feces depleted the oxygen

Explanation:

In the context, it is given that in a small farm pond, the owner added 20 grass carp and feed them with the abundant plants and algae that is found on her pond. The carp grew large after many years but one summer the owner found the grass carps along with other fishes were dead.

The most possible explanation for the dead of the fishes in the pond because the bacteria feeds on the carp feces which depletes the dissolved oxygen present in the water. Thus the fishes could not breathe and were finally dead.

Therefore, the correct option is (D).
