I have a couple of questions that need immediate answers. I willappreciate the work and rate lifesaver.1) Find the volume of a rectangular tank that measures 42 by60 inches at its base and is 52 inches tall. An oilfield workerfills the tank with 15.8 ppg drilling fluid. How much will thefluid contained in the tank weigh?
2) During a tropical storm, an area of 24 square milesreceives 18 inches of rain in 11 hours. Find: a) Rainfall rate in inches per minute and inches perhour b)Rainfall volume in cubic feet and gallons c)Weight of the rainwater if water has a specific weight of8.345ppg
3) Find the amount of energy (foot pounds per second) it takesto stop a 2800 lb car traveling at 65 mph. Convert this tohorsepower and watts
4) The newest 18V cordless drill boasts 225 fl-lb torqueratings. If the line of action of your hand is 7.25 inches from thecenterline of the chuck, how much force could this impart to yourirreplaceable hand?

Explanation / Answer
1) volume V = 42*60*52 V = 131040in3 1 in3 = 0.004329 gallons =>V =131040*0.004329 => V = 567.27 gallons density =15.8 ppg weight W = 567.27*15.8 =>W = 8963 pounds 2)rainfall rate = 18/11 inches/hours a)rainfall rate = 1.6364 inches/hours rainfall rate = 0.0273 inches/minute b)1 mi² = 27878400 ft² Rainfall volume = 24*27878400*11/12 ft3 Rainfall volume = 613324800 ft3 Rainfall volume = 613324800*7.48052 gallons Rainfall volume = 4.588*109 gallons c)weight W=4.588*109 * 8.345 weight W =38.287 pounds 3) amount of energy W =2800*65*1.46667 lb.ft/sec amount of energy W = 266934 lb.ft/sec amount of energy W = 266934/550 lb.ft/sec amount of energy W = 485.33 horsepower amount of energy W = 485.33*745.7 horsepower amount of energy W = 361914 horsepower 4) Force = 225*12/7.25 Force = 372.41 lb
