course Phy 121 I had alot of trouble with these. Could you suggest some other problems to practice on. A rectangular solid has six faces (top, bottom, front, back, left side, right side if you're facing it). The pairs top and bottom, right and left sides, and front-back have identical areas. This solid therefore has two faces with each of the following dimensions: 3 m by 4 m, 3 m by 6 m and 4 m by 6 m, areas 12 m^2, 18 m^2 and 24 m^2. Total area is 2 * 12 m^2 + 2 * 18 m^2 + 2 * 24 m^2 = 108 m^2.......!!!!!!!!...................................

Also pose for the instructor any question or questions that you have related to the problem or series of problems. You would first take (3m*4m)*(3m*6m)*(4m*6m) You would then get 12m^2*18m^2*24m^2 You would then get a result of 108m^2 self critique assessment: 0

17:12:57 The circumference of this cylinder is 2 pi r = 2 pi * 5 m = 10 pi m. If the cylinder was cut by a straight line running up its curved face then unrolled it would form a rectangle whose length and width would be the altitude and the circumference. The area of the curved side is therefore A = circumference * altitude = 10 pi m * 12 m = 120 pi m^2. If the cylinder is closed then it has a top and a bottom, each a circle of radius 5 m with resulting area A = pi r^2 = pi * (5 m)^2 = 25 pi m^2. The total area would then be total area = area of sides + 2 * area of base = 120 pi m^2 + 2 * 25 pi m^2 = 170 pi m^2.

17:21:05 The Pythagorean Theorem says that the hypotenuse c of a right triangle with legs a and b satisfies the equation c^2 = a^2 + b^2. So, since all lengths are positive, we know that c = sqrt(a^2 + b^2) = sqrt( (5 m)^2 + (9 m)^2 ) = sqrt( 25 m^2 + 81 m^2) = sqrt( 106 m^2 ) = 10.3 m, approx.. Note that this is not what we would get if we made the common error of assuming that sqrt(a^2 + b^2) = a + b; this would tell us that the hypotenuse is 14 m, which is emphatically not so. There is no justification whatsoever for applying a distributive law (like x * ( y + z) = x * y + x * z ) to the square root operator.

17:22:23 If c is the hypotenuse and a and b the legs, we know by the Pythagorean Theorem that c^2 = a^2 + b^2, so that a^2 = c^2 - b^2. Knowing the hypotenuse c = 6 m and the side b = 4 m we therefore find the unknown leg: a = sqrt( c^2 - b^2) = sqrt( (6 m)^2 - (4 m)^2 ) = sqrt(36 m^2 - 16 m^2) = sqrt(20 m^2) = sqrt(20) * sqrt(m^2) = 2 sqrt(5) m, or approximately 4.4 m.

17:23:21 The volume of this solid is 4 cm * 7 cm * 12 cm = 336 cm^3. Its density in grams per cm^3 is the number of grams in each cm^3. We find this quantity by dividing the number of grams by the number of cm^3. We find that density = 700 grams / (336 cm^3) = 2.06 grams / cm^3. Note that the solid was said to be uniform and homogeneous, meaning that it's all made of the same material, which is uniformly distributed. So each cm^3 does indeed have a mass of 2.06 grams. Had we not known that the material was uniform and homogeneous we could have said that the average density is 2.06 grams / cm^3, but not that the density is 2.06 grams / cm^3 (the object could be made of two separate substances, one with density less than 2.06 grams / cm^3 and the other with density greater than 2.06 g / cm^3, in appropriate proportions; neither substance would have density 2.06 g / cm^3, but the average density could be 2.06 g / cm^3).

17:25:13 A average density of 3000 kg / cubic meter implies that, at least on the average, every cubic meter has a mass of 3000 kg. So to find the mass of the sphere we multiply the number of cubic meters by 3000 kg. The volume of a sphere of radius 4 meters is 4/3 pi r^3 = 4/3 * pi (4m)^3 = 256/3 * pi m^3. So the mass of this sphere is mass = density * volume = 256 / 3 * pi m^3 * 3000 kg / m^3 = 256,000 * pi kg. This result can be approximated to an appropriate number of significant figures.

17:26:53 The first piece has a mass of 4 grams / cm^3 * 6 cm^3 = 24 grams. The second has a mass of 2 grams / cm^3 * 10 cm^3 = 20 grams. So the total mass is 24 grams + 20 grams = 44 grams. The average density of this object is average density = total mass / total volume = (24 grams + 20 grams) / (6 cm^3 + 10 cm^3) = 44 grams / (16 cm^3) = 2.75 grams / cm^3.

17:27:53 We find the average density from the total mass and the total volume. The mass of the sand is 27 m^3 * 2100 kg / m^3 = 56,700 kg. The mass of the cannonballs is 3 m^3 * 8,000 kg / m^3 = 24,000 kg. The average density is therefore average density = total mass / total volume = (56,700 kg + 24,000 kg) / (27 m^3 + 3 m^3) = 80,700 kg / (30 m^3) = 2,700 kg / m^3, approx..

17:28:52 The volume of the slick is V = A * h, where A is the area of the slick and h the thickness. This is the same principle used to find the volume of a cylinder or a rectangular solid. We see that the volume is V = A * h = 1,700,000 m^2 * .015 m = 25,500 m^3. The mass of the slick is therefore mass = density * volume = 860 kg / m^3 * 24,400 m^3 = 2,193,000 kg. This result should be rounded according to the number of significant figures in the given information.

17:29:39 The curved surface of the cylinder can be 'unrolled' to form a rectangle whose dimensions are equal to the circumference and the altitude of the cylinder, so the curved surface has volume Acurved = circumference * altitude = 2 pi r * h, where r is the radius and h the altitude. The top and bottom of the cylinder are both circles of radius r, each with resulting area pi r^2. {]The total surface area is therefore Acylinder = 2 pi r h + 2 pi r^2.
