4. (10 points)A lighthouse is located on a small island 4 mi away from the nearest point P on a straight shoreline and its light makes ten revolutions per minute. How fast (in mi/min) is the beam of light moving along the shoreline when it is 4 mi from P

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The beam of the light is moving along the shoreline at the rate of [tex]\mathbf{ 160 \ \pi \ mi/min}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information: Let say x is the distance between the lighthouse and the shoreline. Then, the  tangent of  trigonometry can be written as:

[tex]tan (\theta )=\dfrac{x}{4}[/tex]

In respect to time, the expression can be derived as:

[tex]sec^2 (\theta) \dfrac{d \theta}{dt} = \dfrac{1 }{4}\dfrac{dx}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dx}{dt}=\dfrac{4}{cos ^2 (\theta) }\dfrac{d \theta}{dt}[/tex]

To estimate the value of [tex]\dfrac{dx}{dt}[/tex], we need to know cos²(θ) and D

where;

D = [tex]\sqrt{4^2+4^2}= \sqrt{32}\ mi[/tex]

[tex]cos (\theta) = \dfrac{4}{D}[/tex]

[tex]cos (\theta) = \dfrac{4}{\sqrt{32}}[/tex]

[tex]cos (\theta) = \dfrac{4}{\sqrt{16 \times 2}}[/tex]

[tex]cos (\theta) = \dfrac{4}{4 \sqrt{\ 2}}[/tex]

[tex]cos (\theta) = \dfrac{1}{ \sqrt{\ 2}}[/tex]

[tex]cos ^2 (\theta)= \dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

Finally, we substitute the value of [tex]cos^2(\theta)[/tex] and [tex]\dfrac{d \theta}{dt}[/tex] in the expression derived earlier.

i.e.

[tex]\dfrac{dx}{dt} = \dfrac{4}{\dfrac{1}{2}}\times 10 \ rev/min[/tex]

where;

10 rev/min = (10 × 2π) rad/min = 20π rad/min

Then:

[tex]\dfrac{dx}{dt} = \dfrac{4}{\dfrac{1}{2}}\times 20 \ \pi[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{dx}{dt} = 160 \ \pi \ mi/min}[/tex]

you’ve have by the end of today (12am)

Answers

Answer:

B. 2,500

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of the area of the store has been divided A and B as shown in the attachment below.

Dimensions of A:

(*Note: scale = 1 in to 16 ft)

Length = 4 inches

Actual length = 4*16 = 64 ft

Width = 1¾ inches

Actual width = 1¾*16 = 28 ft

Area of A = length * width = 64*28 = 1,792 ft²

Dimensions of B:

(*Note: scale = 1 in to 16 ft)

Length = 2¼ inches

Actual length = 2¼*16 = 36 ft

Width = 3 inches - 1¾ inches = 1¼ inches

Actual width = 1¼*16 = 20 ft

Area of A = length * width = 36*20 = 720 ft²

Area of the store = area of A and area of B = 1,792 + 720 = 2,512 ft²

Approximately, the are is 2,500 ft²

The distance Train A travels is represented by d = 69t, where d is the distance in kilometers and t is the time in hours. The distance Train B travels at various times is shown in the table. What is the unit rate of each train? Which train is going faster?

Answers

If d is distance measured in km and t is time measured in hours, then d = 69t tells you that train A is moving at a rate of 69 km/h.

Why? If t = 1, then d is the distance it moves in 1 hour, and that's precisely the unit rate. It's the rate at which the distance changes when 1 unit of time passes.

For train B, use the info in the given table. In 1 hour (between hours 4 and 5), the train covers a distance of 375 km - 300 km = 75 km. So it's moving at a rate of 75 km/h.

It should be clear which train is faster.

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[tex]d(A) = 69t[/tex]

[tex]d(B) = 75t[/tex]

The unit rate is the coefficient of t which is the slope of the line because the trains distance traveled equation are linear.

Thus :

Train A's unit rate is 69 km per hour.

And

Train B's unit rate is 75 km per hour.

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Train B is going faster because its unit rate is greater than Train A's unit rate .
