Question 1152543: The frustum has regular hexagon bases. The upper base measures 13 ft. on a side and the lower base measures 29 ft. on a side. The altitude of the frustum is 19 ft. Find the mass of the frustum, if its density is 99 lbs. per cu. ft. Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The frustum has regular hexagon bases. The upper base measures 13 ft. on a side and the lower base measures 29 ft. on a side. The altitude of the frustum is 19 ft. Find the mass of the frustum, if its density is 99 lbs. per cu. ft.
--------------
Mass = density*volume
---
Find the volume
--
The altitude is 19 ft.
At the mid-level of 9.5 ft, the sides would be the average of the upper and lower bases = 21 ft.
===================
Find the area of a hexagon with sides of 21 ft.
Multiply that by the height of 19 ft.
That's the volume.
