A trough is 12 ft long and 3 ft across the top Its ends are isosceles triangles with altitudes of 3 ft If water is being pumped in at 2 cubic feet per min how fast is water rising when h is 1 ft deep?

Since the altitude of the triangle on the sides of the trough are equal, the area covered when the water is h feet deep is 1/2*h².
The volume of the trough filled at a given height will be given by V=B*h=h²/2*12=6h².
If you differentiate both sides of the above equation with respect to time you get
dV/dt=12*h*dh/dt
The rate of change of the volume is given to be 2 cubic feet per minute, and we are asked to determine the change of height when h=1
2=12*2*dh/dt
dh/dt=1/12 feet/minute

What type of variable is the number of gallons of gasoline pumped by a filling station during a day?
continuous
True or false if the service breaks fail apply the parking break in one motion?
It if false that is the service brakes fail to apply the parking brake in one motion. It should pumped.
If the number of hydrogen ions being pumped into the thylakoid is rapidly decreasing what is most likely happening?
Less sunlight is being used by photosystem II
How do you convert water fixture units to gpm?
A fixture unit is 1 cubic foot of water (7.48 gallons) If your using pumped drainage /soil system then for every GPM of flow rate one has to consider it as ONE FU
What ion is pumped across the inner membrane in the ETC?
Protons are pumped across the inner membrane into the intermembrane space.
What would increase the electrochemical gradient across a membrane?
Hydrogen ions are pumped across the membrane by carrier proteins of the electron transport chain
What must be used to transport materials that cannot diffuse across the membrane?
They must pumped actively. So energy in ATP is used.
Where is ATP made in the mitochondria?
Across the inner membrane. As H+ ions are pumped through ATP synthase, ADP + Pi --> ATP

Why is blood pumped to the lungs before it is pumped round the body?
blood is pumped through lungs
How does a home ac unit work?
Refrigerant is pumped by a compressor located in the out door section called the condensor to a evaporator coil as a liquid through a metering device.Your air handler or furnace blows air from your home across the evaporator where the liquid refrigerant expands into a gas and picks up the heat from the air across the coil.Then the gas is pumped to the condensor and is again condensed into a liquid through the means of cooling the gas usually by a fan pulling air across the coils of the outdoor unit.
