Answer:

h = 4 in

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

volume of tin= 16 \pi

we know that

volume of cylinder is v = \pi r^2  h

so,

16 \pi = \pi r^2 h

16 = r^2 h

r = \sqrt{\frac{16}{h}}

construct formula for surface area

S = 2\pi r^2 +  2\pi rh

S = \frac{2v}{h} + 2 \sqrt{v \pi h}

minimize the function wrt  h

S' = \frac{2v}{h^2} + \sqrt{\frac{v \pi}{h} =  0

solving for h we have

h = [\frac{4 v}{\pi}]^{1/3}

we kow v = 16 \pi   so

h = 4 in

rodikova [14]

Answer:

11250 seconds or 187.5 mins

Explanation:

The formula to be used here is that of speed.

Speed (in m/s) = distance (meter) ÷ time (secs)

The speed provided is 32 meters per second

The distance provided will have to be converted to meters; 360 km = 360 × 1000 = 360000 meters

Thus,

32 = 360000 ÷ time

time = 360000 ÷ 32

time = 11250 seconds or 187.5 mins

It will take Naomi 11250 seconds to get to New York

A line of charge starts at x = +x0 and extends to positive infinity. The linear charge density is λ = λ0x0/x. Determine the elec
kari74 [83]

Explanation:

it is given that, the linear charge density of a charge, \lambda=\dfrac{\lambda_ox_o}{x}

Firstly, we can define the electric field for a small element and then integrate for the whole. The very small electric field is given by :

dE=\dfrac{k\ dq}{x^2}..........(1)

The linear charge density is given by :

\lambda=\dfrac{dq}{dx}

dq=\lambda.dx=\dfrac{\lambda_ox_o}{x}dx

Integrating equation (1) from x = x₀ to x = infinity

E=\int\limits^\infty_{x_o} {\dfrac{k\lambda_ox_o}{x^3}}.dx

E=-\dfrac{k\lambda_ox_o}{2}\dfrac{1}{x^2}|_{x_o}^\infty}

E=\dfrac{k\lambda_o}{2x_o}

Hence, this is the required solution.
