David pose la question : A water trough has sloping sides of length 500mm making it triangular in cross section, with vertical ends. The width at the top is 600mm and the length is 2.0 metres.
(i) Calculate the capacity of the trough, giving your answer accurate to the nearest litre.
(ii) Find out the depth of the water when the trough is half full. Stephen La Rocque lui répond.
Diane pose la question : My name is Diane and I am a returning student to a vocational technical school.
As a reference point to see what I did/didn't remember from my HS math days, I was sent home with a 75 problem math packet. I was fine until I got to computing:
1. the volume of a cylinder-is it pi r2 h?
2. the volume of a cone- is it pi/3 r2 h?
3. the volume of a sphere- I can't even hazard a guess.
Help- my last classroom was 23 years ago, and I've forgotten far too much! Penny Nom lui répond.
Edward pose la question : I try to find the measurement for a juice jug. I have the height of the jug and need the jug to hold 2.5 Liter of juice. Can you help me out with the formula. Penny Nom lui répond.
Lorraine Wall pose la question : Consider the region in the first quadrant bounded by the x and y axes, the vertical line x=3 and the curve y = 1 / (x squared + 3). Determine the volume of the solid by rotating this region about the x-axis. Now that is the first part. I then have to find the coordinates of the centroid of the solid by rotating this region about the x-axis.
Lorraine Wall pose la question : I'm on the section fpr The Computation of Volumes of Solids of Revolution and the following question is giving me problems:
-Consider the region in the first quadrant bounded by the x-and y-axes, the vertical line x=3, and the curve y=1/(xsquared + 3) I can determine the volume of the solid by rotating the region about the y-axis using the shell method but I can't seem to be able to get started with the volume when rotated about the x-axis.
