Find the equation in slope-intercept form for the line

A lighthouse is located on a small island 2 km away from the nearest point P on a straight shoreline and its light makes four re

ddd [48]

Answer:

62.8 km per min

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the diagram of this situation is shown below,

In which $\theta$ is the angle made by light to the straight line joining the lighthouse and P,

∵ Light makes 4 revolutions per minute.

Also, 1 revolution = $2\pi$ radians

So, the change in angle with respect to t ( time ),

$\frac{d\theta}{dt}=8\pi\text{ radians per min}$

Let x be the distance of beam from P,

$\implies \tan \theta = \frac{x}{2}$

Differentiating with respect to x,

$\sec^2 \theta \frac{d\theta}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$(1+\tan^2 \theta) (8\pi) = \frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$(1+\frac{x^2}{2^2})(8\pi) = \frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

If x = 1 km,

$(1+\frac{1}{4})8\pi =\frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\frac{5}{4}8\pi = \frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\implies \frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{80\pi}{4}= 20\pi\approx 62.8\text{ km per min}$

Hence, the beam of light moving along the shoreline with the speed of 62.8 km per min

For a particular cargo train, the amount of fuel needed for a trip varies directly with the number of miles it plans on travelin

Katyanochek1 [597]

2250 gallons. You have to think of the ratio. 300•750=225000
225000/100=2250
You have to do cross multiplication

The formula T= 2pi sqrt(L/32) relates the time, T, in seconds for a pendulum with the length, L, in feet, to make one full swing

tester [92]

The length of pendulum is 2.485 feet

<h3><u><em>Solution:</em></u></h3>

Given that,

The formula T= 2pi sqrt(L/32) relates the time, T, in seconds for a pendulum with the length, L, in feet, to make one full swing back and forth

<u><em>Therefore, the given formula is:</em></u>

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{32} }$

We have to find the length of pendulum that makes one full swing in 1.75 seconds

So the modify the given equation to find "L"

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{32} }\\\\ \sqrt{\frac{L}{32} }=\frac{T}{2 \pi}\\\\\text{Taking square root on both sides }\\\\\frac{L}{32} = \frac{T^2}{4 \pi^2}\\\\L = \frac{T^2}{4 \pi^2} \times 32\\\\L = \frac{T^2}{\pi^2 } \times 8$

Substitute T = 1.75 seconds and $\pi = 3.14$

$L = \frac{1.75^2}{3.14 \times 3.14} \times 8\\\\L = \frac{3.0625}{9.8596} \times 8\\\\L = 2.485$

Thus length of pendulum is 2.485 feet approximately
