An oceanic Oil Tanker weighing 63,000 tons with no fuel has 13 separate tanks with dimensions of 110’ x 107’ x 32’. The waterline on the ship has a cross sectional area of 280,000 ft2. The ship can submerge a maximum of 15 feet due to the weight in the tanks, and the cross sectional area of the waterline will remain the same area. What is the maximum number of gallons of Kerosene (S.G. = .87) that the ship can hold, without going over the restriction? a. 20 Million Gallons b. 48 Million Gallons c. 36 Million Gallons d. 62 Million Gallons

A VLCC (very large crude carrier) is a large oil tanker that, when fully loaded, has a mass of 300,000 metric tons. (One metric ton is 1000 kg.) While several miles from port, the tanker is moving at a speed of 12.0 mph when the captain shuts dwn the engines. The tanker continues moving foward, slowed by the drag force of the water. After traweling a distance of 3.00 km the tanker's speed is 4.00 mph. Find the magnitude of...

Petro Refinery, Inc., located in Houston, TX, has separate divisions for “Unleaded Gasoline” and “Jet Fuel”. The variable costs are as follows: ■ Unleaded Gasoline division: $1.75 per gallon of unleaded gasoline ■ Jet Fuel division: $1.95 per gallon jet fuel Assume that there is no loss in processing unleaded gasoline into jet fuel. Unleaded Gasoline can be sold at $2.25 per gallon. Jet Fuel can be sold at $3.95 per gallon. Required: Should Petro Refinery process the unleaded gasoline...
Consider two oil refineries that both produce fuel, which has a market price of $3 per gallon.
Exercise 2: ExternalityConsider two oil refineries that both produce fuel, which has a market price of $3 per gallon. Assume that each refinery uses $1 in raw inputs (crude oil, electricity, labor) to produce 1 gallon of fuel. In addition, each plant produces smog, which creates $0.02 of environmental damage per cubic foot. The amount of smog per gallon of fuel produced differs at the two plants:s1= 2y21 and s2=(1/4)y22where y1 and y2 denote the number of gallons of fuel...
