The density of oil in a circular oil slick on the surface of the ocean at a distance of r meters from the center of the slick is given by ?(r) = 40 ? (1 + r²) kilograms per square meter. Find the exact value of the mass of the oil slick if the slick extends from r = 0 to r = 7 meters. Mass = Include units in your answer.

The density of oil in a circular oil slick on the surface of the ocean at a distance of r meters from the center of the slick is given by δ(r) kilograms per square meter. Find the exact value of the mass of the oil slick if the slick extends from r = 0 to r = 8 meters.

The density of oil in a circular oil slick on the surface of the ocean at a distance r meters from the center of the slick is given by δ(r) = 50/(1 + r) kg/m^2. a) If the slick extends from r = 0 to r = 10,000 m, find a Riemann sum approximating the total mass of oil in the slick. b) Find the exact value of the mass of oil in the slick by turning your sum into an integral and evaluating it. c) Within what distance r is half the oil of the slick contained?

When a droplet of oil spreads out on a smooth water surface, the resulting "oil slick" is approximately one molecule thick. An oil droplet of mass $9.00 \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{~kg}$ and density $918 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}$ spreads out into a circle of radius $41.8 \mathrm{~cm}$ on the water surface. What is the diameter of an oil molecule?
