Answer:

The volume of the larger pyramid is equal to 7,133\ cm^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the scale factor

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal to the scale factor

Let

z----> the scale factor

In this problem, the ratio of the height is equal to the scale factor

z=\frac{4}{7}

step 2

Find the volume of the larger pyramid

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its volumes is equal to the scale factor elevated to the cube

Let

z----> the scale factor

x----> volume of the smaller pyramid

y----> volume of the larger pyramid

z^{3}=\frac{x}{y}

we have

z=\frac{4}{7}

x=1,331\ cm^{3}

substitute

(\frac{4}{7})^{3}=\frac{1,331}{y}\\ \\(\frac{64}{343})=\frac{1,331}{y}\\ \\y=343*1,331/64\\ \\y=7,133\ cm^{3}

1. A 5 kg box is lifted from the floor to a height of 1.5 m. How much work was done in this proces
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Work done = 73.575 J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Mass (m) = 5 kg

Height (h) = 1.5 m

Gravity (g) = 9.81 m/s²

Work done = ?

Work done

= mgh

= 5 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 1.5 m

= 73.575 joule (J)

at x = 0, y = 100, y-intercept

meaning at 0 years, at the very beginning of functioning, the satellite had 100 units of power.

at y = 0, x = 10, x-intercept

meaning, at year 10, the satellite had 0 units of power, already out of power.
