The density of oil in a circular oil slick on the surface of the ocean at a distance r meters from the center of the slick is given by δ(r) = 50/(1 + r) kg/m2.

a)If the slick extends from ? = 0 to ? = 10,000 m, find a Riemann sum approximating the total mass of oil in the slick.

b) Find the exact value of the mass of oil in the slick by turning your sum into an integral and evaluating it.

c) Within what distance ? is half the oil of the slick contained?

A ruptured oil tanker causes a circular oil slick on the surface of the ocean. When its radius is 160 meters, the radius of the slick is expanding by 0.3 meter/minute and its thickness is 0.07meter. (a) At that moment, how fast is the area of the slick expanding? (Round your answer to three decimal places.) (b) At that moment, the circular slick has the same thickness everywhere, and the volume of oil spilled remains fixed. How fast is the...

1) 2 point charges are separated by a distance of 8 cm. The left charge is 48 mC and the right charge is -16mC. Using a full sheet of paper: draw the 2 charges separated by 8cm, centered in the sheet. (if you are missing a ruler estimate 8cm as ⅓ a paper sheet length).
