Answer:

0.84 square in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the capacity of the cable is proportional to its​ cross-sectional area.

Mathematically,

C = k * A

A1 = 0.3 sq

C1 = 2500 lb

C2 = 7000 lb

C1/A1 = C2/A2

2500/0.3 = 7000/C2

= 7000 / 8333.33

= 0.84 square in.

Answer:

0.84 square in

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the capacity of the cable is proportional to its​ cross-sectional area. If a cable that is 0.3 sq in can hold 2500 lb then per square inch it can hold

2500 / 0.3 = 8333.33 lb/in

To old 7000 lb it the cross-sectional area would need to be

7000 / 8333.33 = 0.84 square in

Answer:

192.92 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

volume of a cone = \frac{1}{3}πr²h

π = 3.14

r = radius ]

h = height

the base of a cone is in the shape of a circle. thus, the circumference of the base is equal to the circumference of a circle

circumference of a circle= 2πr

30.144 = 2 x 3.14 x r

r = 30.144 / 6.28

r = 4.8

Volume = 1/3 x 3.14 x 4.8² x 8 = 192.92 ft^3

Answer:

181 mi^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of large rectangle, on the left, are 6 mi by 8 m; area is 48 m^2;

Dimensions of small rectangle, in the middle of the diagram, are 4 mi by 5 mi, or 20 mi^2; area is 20 mi^2.

Dimensions of circle:  r = 12 mi; area of quarter circle is (1/4)(3.14)(12 mi)^2, or 113 mi^2.

Total area is 113 mi^2 + 20 mi^2 + 48 mi^2, or 181 mi^2
