You are planning to make an open rectangular box from an 8-inch by 15-inch piece of cardboard by cutting congruent squares from

Phoenix [80]

Let us say that x is the cut that we will make on the sides to make a box, therefore the new dimensions are:

l = 15 – 2x

w = 8 – 2x

It is 2x since we cut on two sides.

We know that volume is:

V = l w x

V = (15 – 2x) (8 – 2x) x

V = 120x – 30x^2 – 16x^2 + 4x^3

V = 120x – 46x^2 + 4x^3

Taking the 1st derivative:

dV/dx = 120 – 92x + 12x^2

Set dV/dx = 0 to get maxima:

120 – 92x + 12x^2 = 0

Divide by 12:

x^2 – (92/12)x + 10 = 0

(x – (92/24))^2 = -10 + (92/24)^2

x - 92/24 = ±2.17

x = 1.66, 6

We cannot have x = 6 because that will make our w negative, so:

x = 1.66 inches

So the largest volume is:

V = 120x – 46x^2 + 4x^3

V = 120(1.66) – 46(1.66)^2 + 4(1.66)^3

V = 90.74 cubic inches

Gravitational force depends on the mass of an object.

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

sun, earth, capitol building, human, atom

Explanation:

Gravity is directly proportional to the size of an object. Therefore, the object with the most mass will have the greatest force of gravity. We know this from the equation. $F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}$

A research submarine has a 20-cm-diameter window that is 9.0 cm thick. The manufacturer says the window can withstand forces up

Ratling [72]

Answer:

The maximum safe depth in salt water is 3758.2 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter = 20 cm

Radius = 10 cm

Thickness = 9.0 cm

Force $F = 1.2\times10^{6}\ N$

Inside pressure = 1.0 atm

We need to calculate the area

Using formula of area

$A=\pi\times r^2$

Put the value into the formula

$A=\pi\times(10\times10^{-2})^2$

$A=0.0314\ m^2$

We need to calculate the pressure

Using formula of pressure

$P=\dfrac{F}{A}$

Put the value into the formula

$P=\dfrac{1.2\times10^{6}}{0.0314}$

$P=38216560.50\ Pa$

$P=3.8\times10^{7}\ Pa$

We need to calculate the maximum depth

Using equation of pressure

$P=P_{atm}+\rho gh$

$h=\dfrac{P-P_{atm}}{\rho g}$

Put the value into the formula

$h=\dfrac{3.8\times10^{7}-101325}{1029\times9.8}$

$h=3758.2\ m$

Hence, The maximum safe depth in salt water is 3758.2 m.

A 210 kg meteoroid is heading toward the earth accelerates by 2.4 × 105 m/s2.

lidiya [134]

According to Newton's second law of motion, Force is the product of mass and acceleration of the object.
So, F = m * a

Here, m = 210 Kg
a = 2.4 * 10⁵ m/s²

Substitute their values,
F = 210 * 2.4 * 10⁵ N
F = 504 * 10⁵ N
F = 5.04 * 10⁷ N

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!

A. State whether the acceleration is positive, negative or zero for each section in the speed versus

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

a=positive

b=0

c=positive

d=negative

Explanation:

a=acceleration depends on the speed and time. if the speed and time are increasing at the same rate, the acceleration value will be positive as the vehicle is speeding up.

b=the speed and time are not increasing, therefore the vehicle is either stationary or travelling at a steady pace.

c=same explanation as a

d=the speed and time are not increasing at the same rate as the speed is decreasing. this means that the car is slowing down
