A cylinder has diameter of 4ft and a height of 9ft. Explain whether halving the diameter has the same effect on the surface area

as halving the height.

Answer:

See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of cylinder is given by the formula:

SA=2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r h

Where

r is radius ( diameter is 4, so radius is 4/2 = 2)

h is height ( h = 9)

Lets find original surface are:

SA=2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r h\\SA=2\pi (2)^2 + 2\pi (2) (9)\\SA=8\pi +36\pi\\SA=44\pi

<u>Halving diameter:</u>

diameter would be 4/2 = 2, so radius would be 2/2 = 1

So, SA would be:

SA=2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r h\\SA=2\pi (1)^2 + 2\pi (1) (9)\\SA=2\pi +18\pi\\SA=20\pi

<u>Halving height:</u>

Height is 9, halving would make it 9/2 = 4.5

Now, calculating new SA:

SA=2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r h\\SA=2\pi (2)^2 + 2\pi (2) (4.5)\\SA=8\pi + 18\pi\\SA= 26\pi

Original SA is 44\pi,

Halving diameter makes it 20\pi

Halving height makes it 26\pi

So, halving diameter does not have same effect as halving height.

The Ferris wheel shown makes 16 revolutions per ride. How far would someone travel during one ride? Round your final answer to t
sertanlavr [38]

Complete question :

The diameter of the ferris Given is 63 feets

Answer:

3165 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Diameter of ferris = 63 feets

Recall :

Circumference of a circle = 2 * pi * Radius

Or

Circumference = pi * d

Hence,

Circumference of wheel = 3.14 * 63 = 197.82 feets

Distance traveled during one ride :

Circumference of wheel * number of revolutions

197.82 * 16 = 3165.12

= 3165 feets (nearest whole number)
