A water tank is in the shape of a truncated cone 2012-03-08
Victoria pose la question :
Suppose you have a water tank in the shape of a truncated cone. The larger diameter is K, the smaller diameter is K/2, and the height is also K (all measured in meters). The force of gravity on an object of mass, m, is F=9.8m (measured in Newtons). The density of the water is 1000 kilograms per cubic meter. What is the volume of the tank and how much mass will the tank have when it is full?

A Performance Appraisal 2012-03-06
Reuel pose la question :
Hello:

I'm looking for an answer to this one:

If I have 428 staff for Performance Appraisal the year 2011 my suggestions for rating their rankings would be:
5% can be no. 1 which would mean 21 employees
15% can be no. 2 which would mean 64 employees
60% can be no. 3 which would mean 257 employees
15% can be no. 4 which would mean 64 employees
5% can be no. 5 which would mean 21 employees
However, what I have received is this:
5% are no. 1 which would mean 20 employees
22 % are no. 2 which would mean 94 employees
60% are no. 3 which would mean 270 employees
15% are no. 4 which would mean 41 employees
5% are no. 5 which would mean 3 employees

Now my question is how do I find the percentage difference between both the scenarios of should be versus reality? I don't think it is normal subtraction, is it? any help would be appreciated.

Best Regards,
Reuel
