B=(32)(1700) your answer should be 54,400 BTU's
12,419,293
an increase of 100,000 = 12,519,293
an increase of 1,000,000 = 13,419,293
a decrease of 10,000 = 12,409,293
1/8 inch thick
inner diameter of 8.5
volume shell=volume total-volume shell
1/8=0.125
diameter/2=radius
radius inner=8.5/2=4.25
radiustotal=inner+outer=4.25+0.125=4.375
so
Vouter-Vinner=(4/3)pi4.375³-(4/3)pi4.25³
Vshell=(4/3)(pi)(4.375³-4.25)
Vshell=(4/3)(pi)(83.740234375-76.765625)
Vshell=(4/3)(pi)(6.974609375)
Vshell=9.299479166666666666666pi cubic inches
Vshell≈16.433536180619 cubic inches
From the ratio given you can determine that m is proportional to 1/(r^3). You can write this as m = k * 1/(r^3), k being your constant of proportionality. Then use this to calculate the next parts of the question.
1080 degrees because it is an octagon
