Given that the pillar is 40 cm in diameter and has the same mass as a solid stone sphere of the same material, with radius 40 cm. Find the height of the pillar. \n" ); document.write( "------------------ \n" ); document.write( "The same material and the same weight --> same volume. \n" ); document.write( "------------- \n" ); document.write( "The volume of the sphere = \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "V = 256000pi/3 cc \n" ); document.write( "------------ \n" ); document.write( "For the cylinder: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "pi*40*(40h + 2*1600/3) = 256000pi/3 \n" ); document.write( "1600h + 12800/3 = 256000/3 \n" ); document.write( "4800h = 12800 = 256000 \n" ); document.write( "48h = 2432 \n" ); document.write( "h = 50.333 cm for the cylindrical part \n" ); document.write( "height overall = 50.333 + r = 90.333 cm \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
