how many (#) 0.45 inch spheres to fill a 3 inch dia. by 4 inch high cylinder ?
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "# accommodated by the height:: 4\"/(0.45) = 8.89;; round down to 8
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "# accommodated by the cross-section:
\n" ); document.write( "Cross-section of the cylinder: pi*1.5^2 = 7.07 in^2
\n" ); document.write( "Cross-section of a sphere:: pi*0.225^2 = 0.159
\n" ); document.write( "# accommodated by the cross-section = 7.07/0.159 = 44.45; round down to 44
\n" ); document.write( "========
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: # of spheres accommodated by the cylinder: 44*8 352k
