Answer:

The air at higher altitudes is colder, less dense, and contains fewer oxygen molecules. This means that you need to take more breaths in order to get the same amount of oxygen as you would at lower altitudes. The higher the elevation, the more difficult breathing becomes

What is the safest way to dispose of old bank account statements?

horsena [70]

The safest way to dispose of old bank account statements or anything with sensitive information on it would be to shred the documents. If you do not own a paper shredder - you can take them to your local branch of your bank and they will dispose of them properly. It is important to dispose of them properly to reduce likelihood of getting your identity stolen.

Surface Area of a can is 517.8 cm^2. Maximize the volume of this can using the measured surface area.

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

$r = 5.24$ --- Radius

$h = 10.48$ --- Height

Explanation:

Given

Object: Can (Cylinder)

$Surface\ Area = 517.8cm^2$

Required

Maximize the volume

The surface area is:

$S.A = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh$

Substitute 517.8 for S.A

$517.8 = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh$

Divide through by 2

$258.9 = \pi r^2 + \pi rh$

Factorize:

$258.9 = \pi r(r + h)$

Divide through by $\pi r$

$\frac{258.9}{\pi r} = r + h$

Make h the subject

$h = \frac{258.9}{\pi r} - r$ --- (1)

Volume (V) is calculated as:

$V = \pi r^2h$

Substitute (1) for h

$V = \pi r^2(\frac{258.9}{\pi r} - r)$

Open Bracket

$V = 258.9r - \pi r^3$

Differentiate V

$V' = 258.9 - 3\pi r^2$

Set V' to 0

$0 = 258.9 - 3\pi r^2$

Collect Like Terms

$3\pi r^2 = 258.9$

Divide through by 3

$\pi r^2 = 86.3$

Divide through by $\pi$

$r^2 = \frac{86.3}{\pi}$

$r^2 = \frac{86.3*7}{22}$

$r^2 = \frac{604.1}{22}$

Take square root of both sides

$r = \sqrt{\frac{604.1}{22}$

$r = 5.24$

Recall that:

$h = \frac{258.9}{\pi r} - r$

Substitute 5.24 for r

$h = \frac{258.9}{\pi * 5.24} - 5.24$

$h = \frac{258.9*7}{22 * 5.24} - 5.24$

$h = \frac{1812.3}{115.28} - 5.24$

$h = 15.72 - 5.24$

$h = 10.48$

Hence, the dimension that maximize the volume is:

$r = 5.24$ --- Radius

$h = 10.48$ --- Height
