A bucket that weighs 4lband a rope of negligible weight are used todraw water from a well that is 80ftdeep. The bucket is filled

with 40lbof waterand is pulled up at a rate of 2ft/s, but water leaks out of a hole in the bucketat a rate of 0.2lb/s. Find the work done in pulling the bucket to the top ofthe well.

Answer:

Workdone = 3200 lb.ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the bucket is filled with 40 lb of water but water leaks out of a hole in the bucket at a rate of 0.2lb/s

Thus,

Weight of water at any given time (t) would be;

w(t) = 40 - 0.2t - - - - (1)

We are told the bucket is pulled up at a rate of 2ft/s.

Thus, height at time (t); y = 0 + 2t = 2t

Since y = 2t,

Then,t = y/2

Put y/2 for t in eq 1

Thus; w(y) = 40 - 0.2(y/2)

w(y) = 40 - 0.1y

Now, at y = 80 ft, we have;

w(80) = 40 - 0.1(80)

w(80) = 40 - 8 = 32 lb

Since 32 lbs are left, it means there is always water in the bucket.

Thus, work done is;

W = 80,0[∫(Total weight).dy]

W = 80,0[∫[(weight of rope) + (weight of bucket) + (weight of water)]dy]

W = 80,0[∫[0 + 4 + 40 - 0.1y]dy]

Integrating, we have;

W = [44y - y²/20] at boundary of 80 and 0

So,

W = [44(80) - 80²/20] - [0 - 0²/20]

W = 3200 lb.ft

the diameter of a bike wheel is 25 inches. If the wheelmakes 20 Complete rotations, how far does the bike travel?
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

1571 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Diamter= 25 in

radius= 25/2= 12.5in

Circumference= 2πr

substitute

C=2*3.142*12.5

C=78.55in

In 1 revolution the bike will travel 78.55in

in 20 revolutions the bike will travel

=78.55*20

=1571 in

If 2x + 3y = 194 and x = 28, what is the value of y?
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

46

Step-by-step explanation:

For the value of y, substitute x = 28 into the equation.

2x + 3y = 194

2(28) + 3(y) = 194

56 + 3y = 194

3y = 194 - 56

3y = 138

dividing bothsides by 3

y = 46
