So the total distance it rolls when rolling around the two fixed balls is its circumference: pi * diameter = 7(3.14) = 21.98 cm. \n" ); document.write( "The ball will roll for (38-7) = 31 cm on each long edge of the rectangle and for 15 cm on each short edge. \n" ); document.write( "The total distance it will travel going around once is then \n" ); document.write( "ANSWER: 21.98 + 2(31) + 2(15) = 113.98 cm \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
