A cube-shaped water tank having 6 ft side lengths is being filled with water. The bottom is solid metal but the sides of the tan

k are thin glass which can only withstand a maximum force of 200 lb. How high (in ft) can the water reach before the sides shatter?
(Assume a density of water rho = 62.4 lb/ft3.
Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answer:

0.033 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g = 32.2 ft/s2 and h be the maximum height that water can be filled before the sides shatter.

Pressure is distributed from 0 to maximum at the bottom like the following equation:

P = \rho gh

So the force generated by water pressure on the side of the tank is

F = PA = \rho ghs/2

where s = 6ft is the side length of the tank. This force cannot be larger than 200lb

\rho ghs/2 \leq 200

62.4*32.2*h*6/2 \leq 200

h \leq 0.033 ft

Each angle on a triangle would add up to 180 degrees. Since a ladder goes straight up, that angle would be 90 degrees. If you add that with the 39 degree angle, you'd get 129. Subtract that from 180 and you have your answer.

ΔMNO was dilated, then _____________, to create ΔYHQ.
lesya [120]

Rotated

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Remember you have to write complete questions in order to find good and exact answer. So in this case I'll provide a general explanation and say that the blank can be filled with the word rotated. First of all, when dilating objects we reduce or enlarge the size of them. It's important to know the scale factor because this tells use whether the object will be larger or smaller, so if we call k the scale factor, then:

  • If k > 0 then the object will be larger than the original.
  • If k < 0 then the object will be smaller than the original.

Moreover, the center of dilation is the point where all the lines that meet corresponding points of the original and dilated figure.

On the other hand, to rotate a shape we turn it about a fixed point that we call the center of rotation. So, in this case we'll have that ΔMNO is similar to  ΔYHQ.
