- Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
- Once someone helps you, say thank you and close the thread with:
+close
- Feel free to nominate the person for helper of the week in #helper-nominations
- Do not ping the mods, unless someone is breaking the rules.
- If you're happy with the help you got here, and the server overall, you can contribute financially as well:
could u do an integral from up to down in circular slices?
and then get the potential energy of each slice and do dh
the radius as a function of h would be sqrt(25 - h^2)
actually
sqrt(25 - (5-h)^2)
and potential energy is mgh
m is volume * density
and we can do the integral for volume
int(0 to 5 of (h * sqrt(25 - (5-h)^2)) dh) * density * g
the inside of integral is mh
and outside is the g
i get 5.65 kJ
o mf 9.8 not 10
i get 5.54 kJ
Did you figure it out?
Good. Do +close
