Oil from a leaking container radiates outwards in the form of a circular film on the water surfaces. If the area of the circle increases at rate of 900m²/s, how fast is the radius of the circle
increasing when the area is 1400 z m??
[6 marks)
[Ans:3.83m/s]

Step by Step Explanation:

The area a is defined as

Now take derivative of the above expression with respect to time:

Solving for dr/dt, we then get

Note that da/dt = 900 m^2/s and when the area of the oil slick is 1400 m^2, the radius r is r = √(1400/π) = 21.1 m. Therefore,the rate at which the radius is increasing dr/dt is

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2

required rate of return = 0.166 = 16.6%

step-by-step explanation:

under the capital asset pricing model (capm), the required or expected rate of return for a particular security or asset is given using the formula:

required rate of return = risk-free rate + beta*(market risk premium)

we are given that;

risk-free rate = 4% = 0.04

beta = 1.4

market risk premium = 9% = 0.09

we simply plug these values into the above formula;

required rate of return = 0.04 + 1.4*(0.09)

required rate of return = 0.04 + 0.126

required rate of return = 0.166 = 16.6%
