How many nickels will fit in a 2 liter bottle

Mathematics
1 answer:
lara [203]4 years ago

A nickel has a diameter of 21.21 mm and a thickness of 1.95 mm 

<span>2.121 cm diameter </span>
<span>0.195 cm thickness </span>

<span>Think of a nickel as a cylinder </span>

<span>r = 2.121/2 = 1.0605 cm </span>

<span>V = pi * r^2 * h </span>
<span>V = pi * 1.0605^2 * 0.195 cubic cm </span>

<span>2 liters = 2000 cubic cm </span>

<span>2000 / (1.0605^2 * 0.195 * pi) => </span>
<span>2902.84713216 </span>

<span>Your upper limit is 2902, but it could be as little as 0 (for instance if the 2L bottle was only 1 cm wide, then you wouldn't be able to fit a single nickel in there) </span>

<span>I'd say that you could expect about a 70% packing efficiency, just off the top of my head </span>

<span>2900 * 0.7 => </span>
<span>290 * 7 => </span>
<span>300 * 7 - 10 * 7 => </span>
<span>2100 - 70 => </span>
<span>2030 </span>

<span>I'd expect around 2000 nickels would fill up the bottle quite nicely, supposing you can get the nickels into it.</span>

Solve using completing the square x^2 – 8x + 16 = 25
lisov135 [29]

First we need to factor the left side. Since it is a perfect square (as is the process with completing the square, we know we can take half of the middle number along with x to be in the two parenthesis.

(x - 4)(x - 4) = 25

Now we simplify to show it as a square.

(x - 4)^2 = 25

Next we take the square root of both sides

x - 4 = +/- 5

Note that we have plus or minus 5. This is because either square would give us positive 25. Now we add 4 to both sides

x = 4 +/- 5

4 + 5 = 9

4 - 5 = -1

In the regual nonagon shown, what is the measure of angle x?
andre [41]
The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is (n-2)*180, n being the number of sides.
a nonagon has nine sides, so the total of interior angles is (9-2)*180=7*180
this is a regular nonagon, so each interior angle has the same degrees:
7*180/9=7*20=140
the exterior angle=180-the interior angle=180-140=40
40 is the correct answer.

The length of a rectangle is 2 meters more than its width. The area of the rectangle is 80 square meters. What is the length and
insens350 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

A = L * W

Givens

W = W

L = W + 2

Solution

Area = L*W

Area = (W+2)*W = 80            Remove the brackets.

Area = W^2 + 2W = 80         Subtract 80 from both sides.

Area = w^2+2W-80=80-80  Combine

Area = w^2 +2W-80 = 0        Factor.

Area = (w+10)(w - 8) = 0

W + 10 = 0 won't work

W = - 10 which isn't possible

W- 8 = 0

W = 8

L = 8 + 2 = 10

The answer looks like A

Evaluate cube root of 5 multiplied by square root of 5 over cube root of 5 to the power of 5.
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Option d)  5 to the power of negative 5 over 6 is correct.

\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{\bf 5} \times \sqrt{\bf 5}}{\sqrt[3]{\bf 5^{\bf 5}}}= 5^{\frac{\bf -5}{\bf 6}}

Above equation can be written as 5 to the power of negative 5 over 6.

ie, 5^\frac{\bf -5}{\bf 6}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that cube root of 5 multiplied by square root of 5 over cube root of 5 to the power of 5.

It can be written as below

\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{5} \times \sqrt{5}}{\sqrt[3]{5^5}}

\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{5} \times \sqrt{5}}{\sqrt[3]{5^5}}= \dfrac{5^{\frac{1}{3}} \times 5^{\frac{1}{2}}}{5^{\frac{5}{3}}}

\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{5} \times \sqrt{5}}{\sqrt[3]{5^5}}= \dfrac{5^{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{2}}}{5^{\frac{5}{3}}}

\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{5} \times \sqrt{5}}{\sqrt[3]{5^5}}= \dfrac{5^{\frac{2+3}{6}}}{5^{\frac{5}{3}}}

\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{5} \times \sqrt{5}}{\sqrt[3]{5^5}}= 5^{\frac{5}{6}} \times 5^{\frac{-5}{3}}

\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{5} \times \sqrt{5}}{\sqrt[3]{5^5}}= 5^{\frac{5-10}{6}}

\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{5} \times \sqrt{5}}{5^5}= 5^{\frac{-5}{6}}

Above equation can be written as 5 to the power of negative 5 over 6.
