1 answer:

5 0

While “digital” commonly refers to electronics in general, the scientific definition of digital is much different. “Digital” in information science refers to the finite, discontinuous phenomenon (e.g., on or off states in a light bulb) as opposed to infinitely varying, continuous analog phenomenon (e.g., the brightness of daylight). It can also refer to representing data in figures as opposed to data represented in pictorial form.

The volume in cubic centimeters of a sphere whose diameter is 6 centimes is ?

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Volume of the sphere is 36π (or) 113.097 cubic centimetre.

Step-by-step explanation:

$given \\ diameter \: of \: sphere = 6 \: cm \\ radius \: of \: sphere \: = \frac{diameter}{2} \\ radius \: = \frac{6}{2} \\ radius \: (r) = \: 3 \: cm \\ volume \: of \: sphere \: = \frac{4}{3} \pi \: {r}^{3} \\ here \: r \: = 3 \: cm \\ on \: substituting \: r \: = 3 \: \: in \: formula \\ volume \: of \: sphere \: = \frac{4}{3} \pi \: {3}^{3} \\ \: \: = \frac{4}{3} \pi \: 27 \\ \: = \: 4 \pi \times 9 \\ \: \: = 36\pi \\ \: \: = 113.097 \: {cm}^{3}$

How do i turn 24% into a fraction

PolarNik [594]

You can remove the % sign if you divide the number by 100:

$\frac{24}{100}$

This is because % is defined as 1/100, and the name (per-cent) actually meant this originally!
we can also simplify it: let's divide it by 4:

$\frac{6}{25}$
