What, roughly, is the percent uncertainty in the volume of a spherical beach ball whose radius is r = 2.86 plus or minus .09 m?

1 answer:

3 0

The volume of a sphere is calculated through the equation,

V = 4πr³ /3
where r is the radius of the given.

If the radius is 2.86, we can substitute the value to the equation above such that,
V = 4π(2.86)³ / 3 = 97.99π m³

When the radius is 0.09 m plus the given radius then,
V = 4π(2.86 - 0.09)³ / 3 = 89.03π m³

The difference between the volumes is equal to,
difference = 97.99π - 89.03π m³ = 8.96π m³

Dividing this to the original volume and multiplying by 100%,
percentage = (8.96π/97.99π) x 100%
percentage = 9.14%.

Hence, the expected percent uncertainty is equal to 9.14%.

The area of the base of a cube is 36 in2. What is the total surface area of the cube?

irina [24]

216 in^2 ( its 2 squared but that’s how I can write it on my phone)

All the sides of a cube are the same and there are 6 sides to a cube so if we have 36 as our are of the base then we just have to multiply that by 6

36 x 6= 216

Classify each pair of numbered angles. Drag and drop the descriptions into the boxes to correctly classify each pair of numbered

Leona [35]

(i) Pairs of neighboring angles are supplementary and opposite angles have the same measure.

(ii) The two angles formed by a line coming out of another line are supplementary.

<h3>How to analyze pairs of angles</h3>

(i) When two straight lines pass through each other, then two pairs of opposite angles are constructed. A pair with angles of $(3\cdot x + 52)^{\circ}$ and another pair with angles of $(2\cdot x + 2)^{\circ}$ , each pair of angles with different measures are supplementary. $\blacksquare$

(ii) When a straight line comes out of another straight line, from a point distinct to any endpoint of the former, then we construct two supplementary angles. The largest angle has a value of $(10\cdot x + 20)^{\circ}$ , whereas the smaller one has a value of $(6\cdot x + 8)^{\circ}$ . $\blacksquare$
