From what I remember in high school, they said that since gold is more expensive and not that easy to find, we try to use something that is in the same category and copper is the closest to it and also not expensive and not hard to find.

An inverted pyramid is being filled with water at a constant rate of 45 cubic centimeters per second. The pyramid, at the top, h

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

13.20 cm/s is the rate at which the water level is rising when the water level is 4 cm.

Explanation:

Length of the base = l

Width of the base = w

Height of the pyramid = h

Volume of the pyramid = $V=\frac{1}{3}lwh$

We have:

Rate at which water is filled in cube = $\frac{dV}{dt}= 45 cm^3/s$

Square based pyramid:

l = 6 cm, w = 6 cm, h = 13 cm

Volume of the square based pyramid = V

$V=\frac{1}{3}\times l^2\times h$

$\frac{l}{h}=\frac{6}{13}$

$l=\frac{6h}{13}$

$V=\frac{1}{3}\times (\frac{6h}{13})^2\times h$

$V=\frac{12}{169}h^3$

Differentiating V with respect to dt:

$\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{d(\frac{12}{169}h^3)}{dt}$

$\frac{dV}{dt}=3\times \frac{12}{169}h^2\times \frac{dh}{dt}$

$45 cm^3/s=3\times \frac{12}{169}h^2\times \frac{dh}{dt}$

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{45 cm^3/s\times 169}{3\times 12\times h^2}$

Putting, h = 4 cm

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{45 cm^3/s\times 169}{3\times 12\times (4 cm)^2}$

$=13.20 cm/s$

13.20 cm/s is the rate at which the water level is rising when the water level is 4 cm.

What subatomic particles participate in chemical bonding

Advocard [28]

The subatomic particle involved in chemical bonding is the electron. Electrons are the smallest of all subatomic particles and orbit the nucleus in discrete energy levels called shells. Electrons are negatively charged and the nucleus is positively charged due to the protons.
