Find the volume and surface area of the composite figure. Give your answer in terms of π.

irakobra [83]

Answer:

V = 240π cm^3 , S= 168π cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given figure is a combination of hemi-sphere and a cone

<u>Volume:</u>

For volume

r = 6 cm

h = 8 cm

$Volume\ of\ cone = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h\\= \frac{1}{3}\pi (6)^2*8\\=\frac{1}{3}\pi *36*8\\=\frac{288}{3}\pi\\=96\pi cm^3 \\\\Volume\ of\ hemisphere = \frac{2}{3}\pi r^3\\=\frac{2}{3}*\pi * (6)^3\\=\frac{2}{3}*\pi *216\\=\frac{432}{3}\\=144\pi cm^3 \\\\Total\ Volume= Volume\ of\ cone + Volume\ of\ hemisphere\\= 96\pi +144\pi \\=240\pi cm^3$

<u>Surface Area:</u>

For this particular figure we have to consider the lateral area of the cone shape and surface area of the hemisphere

We have to find the lateral height

$l = \sqrt{r^2+h^2}\\ l = \sqrt{(6)^2+(8)^2} \\l= \sqrt{36+64}\\ l = \sqrt{100}\\l = 10cm\\\\Surface\ area\ of\ cone = \pi rl\\= \pi (6)(10)\\=\pi *60\\=60 \pi\ cm^2\\\\Surface\ area\ of\ hemisphere = 2\pi r^2\\= 2 \pi * (6)\\= 2 \pi *36\\= 72 \pi\ cm^2\\\\Total\ surface\ Area = Surface\ area\ of\ cone + Surface\ area\ of \ hemisphere\\= 60 \pi + 72 \pi\\=132 \pi\ cm^2$

Hence the first option is correct ..

Points (−3, 5) and (3, 5) on the coordinate grid below show the positions of two players on a tennis court:

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

4. Player 2's position is Player 1's position reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different.

Step-by-step explanation:

Player 1's position is (-3, 5).

It means that it is 3 units left from the origin and 5 units above the origin.

Player 2's position is (3, 5).

It means that it is 3 units right from the origin and 5 units above the origin.

Hence, the two points are on the same horizontal line bisected by the y-axis.

So, Player 2's position is Player 1's position reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different.

The amount A of the radioactive element radium in a sample decays at a rate proportional to the amount of radium present. Given

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

a) $\frac{dm}{dt} = -k\cdot m$ , b) $m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$ , c) $m(t) = 10\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{2438.155} }$ , d) $m(300) \approx 8.842\,g$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let assume an initial mass m decaying at a constant rate k throughout time, the differential equation is:

$\frac{dm}{dt} = -k\cdot m$

b) The general solution is found after separating variables and integrating each sides:

$m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$

Where $\tau$ is the time constant and $k = \frac{1}{\tau}$

c) The time constant is:

$\tau = \frac{1690\,yr}{\ln 2}$

$\tau = 2438.155\,yr$

The particular solution of the differential equation is:

$m(t) = 10\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{2438.155} }$

d) The amount of radium after 300 years is:

$m(300) \approx 8.842\,g$
