It is reasonable to assume that the bulk modulus of blood is about the same as that of water (2.20 gpa). as one goes deeper and deeper in the ocean, the pressure increases by 1.0*10^4 pa for every meter below the surface.

a) if a diver goes down 33.0 m (a bit over 100 ft) in the ocean, by how much does each cubic centimeter of her blood change in volume?

b) how deep must a diver go so that each drop of blood compresses to half its volume at the surface?

c) is the ocean deep enough to have this effect on the diver?
-yes/no?

The second largest public utility in the nation is the sole provider of electricity in 32 counties of southern florida. to meet the monthly demand for electricity in these counties, which is given by the inverse demand function p = 1,200 – 4q, the utility company has set up two electric generating facilities: q1 kilowatts are produced at facility 1, and q2 kilowatts are produced at facility 2 (so q = q1 + q2). the costs of producing electricity at each facility are given by c1(q1) = 8,000 + 6q12 and c2(q2) = 6,000 + 3q22, respectively. determine the profit-maximizing amounts of electricity to produce at the two facilities, the optimal price, and the utility company’s profit

Employer informs its employees that it will hold a substantial cash prize drawing for each work group at the end of each month in which no employee in the work group sustains a lost-time injury. tyra reports an injury that she sustained while operating a mechanical power press. tyra did not violate any employer safety rules when she sustained her injury. tyra’s injury requires her to miss work for two days. her employer cancels the cash prize drawing for that month for tyra’s work group because of tyra’s lost-time injury. did the employer misuse an incentive program to retaliate against tyra?
