central angle of a sector is 72° and the sector has an area of 16.2(pie) ft^2. what is the radius of the circle?
Cloud [144]
Sector area = (central angle / 360) * PI * radius^2
sector area = (72 / 360) * PI * radius^2
radius^2 = sector area / [(72 / 360) * PI]
radius^2 = 16.2 * PI / [(1 / 5) * PI]
radius^2 = 16.2 / .2
radius^2 = 81
radius = 9

The dimensions of a conical funnel are shown below: A conical funnel is shown with the height of the cone as 7 inches and the ra
Nataly [62]
The first thing we should know in this case is that by definition the flow of liquid is given by:
 Q = V / t
 Where,
 V: volume
 t: time
 The volume of the cone is given by:
 V = (pi * r ^ 2 * h) / (3)
 Where,
 r: radio
 h: height
 Substituting the values we have:
 V = (3.14 * ((3) ^ 2) * 7) / (3)
 V = 65.94 in ^ 3
 We now turn off the time of the flow equation:
 t = V / Q
 Substituting values:
 t = (65.94) / (14)
 t = 4.71 minutes
 Answer:
 It will take for all the liquid in the funnel to pass through the nozzle about:
 t = 4.71 minutes
