12-73. The water sprinkler, positioned at the base of a hill, releases a stream of water with a velocity of 15 ft/s as shown. Determine the point B(x, y) where the water strikes the ground on the hill. Assume that the hill is defined by the equation y = (0.05x2) ft and neglect the size of the sprinkler. 15 ft/s 60° y = (0.05x²) ft B -X

A diver explores a shallow reef off the coast of Belize. She initially swims 90.0 m north, makes a turn to the east and continues for 200.0 m, then follows a big grouper for 80.0 m in the direction 30 north of east. In the meantime, a local current displaces her by 150.0 m south. Assuming the current is no longer present, in what direction and how far should she now swim to come back to the point where she started?

Milk is poured into a bowl at a constant rate of 17.0 cm3/s. The bowl has a circular cross section, but does not have a uniform diameter. (That is, different horizontal cross sections taken at different heights of the bowl have different diameters.) (a) As the milk fills the bowl, the milk level reaches a point where the diameter of the bowl is d1 = 1.45 cm. What is the rate (in cm/s) at which the milk level rises at this diameter? (b) As the milk continues to fill the bowl, the milk level reaches a point where the diameter of the bowl is d2 = 5.30 cm. What is the rate (in cm/s) at which the milk level rises at this diameter?
