A ladder 25 feet long is leaning against the wall of a building. Initially, the foot of the ladder is 7 feet from the wall. The
foot of the ladder begins to slide at a rate of 2 ft/sec, causing the top of the ladder to slide down the wall. The location of the foot of the ladder at time t seconds is given by the parametric equations (7 +2t, 0). The location of the top of the ladder will be given by parametric equations (0, y(t)). The formula for y(t)=√[625−(7+2t)²]. The domain of t values for y(t) ranges from 0 to 9.
Calculate the average velocity of the top of the ladder on each of these time intervals (correct to three decimal places):
a) [0,2]
b) [2,4]
c) [6,8]
d) [8,9]

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:
So the force generated by water pressure on the side of the tank is
where s = 6ft is the side length of the tank. This force cannot be larger than 200lb
