An accident at an oil drilling platform is causing a circular oil slick. The slick is 0.07 foot thick, and when the radius of th

ololo11 [35]

Answer: $43.54 ft^3/min$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Thickness of oil slick=0.07 foot

radius of slick=110 ft

$\frac{\mathrm{d} r}{\mathrm{d} t}=0.9 ft/s$

Let V be the volume of oil slick

so, $V=0.07\pi \cdot r^2$

rate of oil flowing is

$\frac{\mathrm{d} V}{\mathrm{d} t}=0.07\times 2\pi \cdot r\frac{\mathrm{d} r}{\mathrm{d} t}$

$\frac{\mathrm{d} V}{\mathrm{d} t}=0.07\times 2\pi \times 110\times 0.9=43.54 ft^3/min$

The points A(1, 4), B(5,1) lie on a circle. The line segment AB is a chord. Find the equation of a diameter of the circle.

tangare [24]

Check the picture below.

well, we want only the equation of the diametrical line, now, the diameter can touch the chord at any several angles, as well at a right-angle.

bearing in mind that <u>perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal</u> slopes, hmm let's find firstly the slope of AB, and the negative reciprocal of that will be the slope of the diameter, that is passing through the midpoint of AB.

$\bf A(\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad B(\stackrel{x_2}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{1}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{1}-\stackrel{y1}{4}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{5}-\underset{x_1}{1}}}\implies \cfrac{-3}{4} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{slope of AB}}{-\cfrac{3}{4}}\qquad \qquad \qquad \stackrel{\textit{\underline{negative reciprocal} and slope of the diameter}}{\cfrac{4}{3}}$

so, it passes through the midpoint of AB,

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points } \\\\ A(\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad B(\stackrel{x_2}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{1}) \qquad \left(\cfrac{ x_2 + x_1}{2}~~~ ,~~~ \cfrac{ y_2 + y_1}{2} \right) \\\\\\ \left( \cfrac{5+1}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{1+4}{2} \right)\implies \left(3~~,~~\cfrac{5}{2} \right)$

so, we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 4/3 and runs through (3 , 5/2)

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{\frac{5}{2}}) \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{4}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{\cfrac{5}{2}}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{4}{3}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{3})\implies y-\cfrac{5}{2}=\cfrac{4}{3}x-4 \\\\\\ y=\cfrac{4}{3}x-4+\cfrac{5}{2}\implies y=\cfrac{4}{3}x-\cfrac{3}{2}$
