Re: Related time rate , ship problem
ok so this is how i solved the problem :
After t hours i presumed the following
AB = 36+2t
BC = 36+2t
we need to find AC so
AC^2 = (36+2t)^2 + (36+2t)^2
AC = 12(Root)[FONT=Arial]26
is this correct?
Re: Related time rate , ship problem
so A is the origin and when the ship sails north i put a dot a bit further up and for the 30 north of east i draw an imaginary x-axis on the dot on the north direction and put a point in the 30 degrees direction? what's next?
Re: Related time rate , ship problem
I understand i have to draw the x-axis and the y-axis and plot and join the dots to form a triangle but the problem is I am having trouble understanding the positions of the ships
[FONT=arial]A ship sailing west at 9am with velocity 20km/h. after one hour another ship sailed from the same port with velocity 40km/h at 60 north of west . find the rate of increase of the distance between the two ships at 11am
Can someone please show me how to solve this? i have no idea
[FONT=arial]Ship started its journey from a Location A with velocity 18km/h to the north . after 2 hours the ship sailed in the direction 30 north of east find the rate of change in the distance between the location A and the position of the ship after 4 hours from the start.
i have no idea how...
Thanks a lot but i still didnt get what you are trying to tell me , I've got all these equations on the paper and i tried to substitute each in the original but it just won't get the right answer! the fact that dr/dt exists is not right :(:confused:
The only equation i managed to find is v=4/3 "pi" r^3 which is he volume of the sphere.
So if we say that the surface area = x ,then
V=1/3 r . X
But then when i differentiate it it turns out like this ,
Dv/dt = 1/3 dr/dt . Dx/dt , and that prove needs dv/dt = 1/2 r . Dx/dt
