Q:

(1 point) The soot produced by a garbage incinerator spreads out in a circular pattern. The depth, H(r), in millimeters, of the soot deposited each month at a distance r kilometers from the incinerator is given by H(r)=0.114eβˆ’1.8r. (a) Write a definite integral (with independent variable r) giving the total volume of soot deposited within 5 kilometers of the incinerator each month. volume = ∫50 (include units) (b) Evaluate the integral you found in part (a) to find the volume of soot.

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:a) [tex]V(r) = \int\limits^5_00.114e^{-1.8r} \, dr[/tex]b) [tex]V = 0.0629[/tex]Step-by-step explanation:We have that the depth, in millimeters, of the soot deposited each month at a distance r kilometers from the incinerator is given by:[tex]H(r) = 0.114e^{-1.8r}[/tex](a) Write a definite integral (with independent variable r) giving the total volume of soot deposited within 5 kilometers of the incinerator each month.This is the integral of H(r) with r varying from 0 to 5.
