#Volume of cylinder,hemisphere and involves trignometry
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Work out the vertical height, use trig and find the hypotenuse, which is the length of the rod
How do I do the vertical height?
Could u explain it in more detail please
πr²h
V = πr²h
22.1 = π(1.5)²h
22.1 = 2.25π x h
22.1/2.25π = h
h = 3.12651043763
Length opposite the angle is 3.12651043763. Use sin(71) = 3.12651043763/h and rearrange to get h.
sin(71) x h = 3.12651043763, so h = 3.12651043763/sin(71). Insert that into your calculator and you'll find the length of the rod.
@tidal mist ^
It's correct if v = πr²h is the correct formula
@prime compass ^
That’s the volume for the cylinder
You need to remember to add on the volume of the hemisphere
how would you work that out?
is there a formula for it?
Uhh there is but I don’t remember it
I have a feeling it’s just half the volume of a sphere
oh ok ty
Yeh it is just half the volume of a sphere
$\frac{2\pi r^3}{3}$
clarence
I see thanks
Alright thank you,I’ll try
take into consideration what clarence said above
Will do thanks
np
I add the volume of the hemisphere to the cylinder and then do the trigonometry right?
yes
Can u help me please
vol of hemisphere is half volume of a sphere
work out the volume of a sphere using its equation
/2
and add it onto the vol of the cyclinder
then use these steps but with the correct volume
I did
