Answer:

r=1.05\ \text{ft}

h=2.12\ \text{ft}

20.91\ \text{ft}^3

Step-by-step explanation:

r = Radius

h = Height

Volume of cylinder = 7.35\ \text{ft}^3

V=\pi r^2h\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{V}{\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{7.35}{\pi r^2}

Surface area is given by

A=2\pi r^2+2\pi rh\\\Rightarrow A=2\pi r^2+2\pi r\dfrac{7.35}{\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow A=2\pi r^2+\dfrac{14.7}{r}

Differentiating with respect to radius we get

\dfrac{dA}{dr}=4\pi r-\dfrac{14.7}{r^2}

Equating with zero we get

0=4\pi r-\dfrac{14.7}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow 4\pi r=\dfrac{14.7}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow r^3=\dfrac{14.7}{4\pi}\\\Rightarrow r=(\dfrac{14.7}{4\pi})^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow r=1.05

\dfrac{d^2A}{dr^2}=4\pi-2\times \dfrac{14.7}{r^3}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d^2A}{dr^2}=4\pi+2\times \dfrac{14.7}{1.05^3}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d^2A}{dr^2}=37.96>0

So, the value of the function is minimum at r=1.05

h=\dfrac{7.35}{\pi r^2}=\dfrac{7.35}{\pi 1.05^2}\\\Rightarrow h=2.12

So, the radius and height which would minimize the surface area is 1.05 feet and 2.12 feet respectively.

Surface area

A=2\pi r^2+2\pi rh\\\Rightarrow A=2\pi \times 1.05^2+2\pi 1.05\times 2.12\\\Rightarrow A=20.91\ \text{ft}^3

The minimum surface area is 20.91\ \text{ft}^3.

A girl is on a train that is headed East at 100 miles per hour. The girl is walking at 5 miles per hour
nata0808 [166]

Answer: The speed is 105 miles/ hr and  the direction of the train would be East if the girl is the frame of reference.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Speed of train = 100 miles per hour

Speed of girl = 5 miles per hour

Since the girl is moving towards the back of train.

So,it means train and girl are moving in opposite direction.

So, Relative speed would be

100+5=105\ miles/hr

Hence, the speed is 105 miles/ hr and  the direction of the train would be East if the girl is the frame of reference.
