A stone is dropped into a well and the report of the stone striking the bottom is heard 7.7 seconds after it is dropped. Assume that the stone falls 16t2 feet in t seconds and that the velocity of sound is 1,120 feet per second. The depth of the well is:

The pressure P of wind on a sail varies jointly as the area A of the sail and the square of the velocity V of the wind.

The pressure P of wind on a sail varies jointly as the area A of the sail and the square of the velocity V of the wind. The pressure on a square foot is 1 lb when the velocity is 16 mph. The velocity of the wind when the pressure on a square yard is 36 lbs is:
