No - area of the bases of the cylinders are NOT equal.Is the solution correct?
But we were not required to find area. Are we?No - area of the bases of the cylinders are NOT equal.
But you are required to THINK!!.........so thinkBut we were not required to find area. Are we?
When it comes to matter of similar solid, I am thinking of volumes rather than areas?But you are required to THINK!!.........so think
What does SIMILAR solids mean?
No - you should think about dimension (linear measurements).When it comes to matter of similar solid, I am thinking of volumes rather than areas?
Do you understand what they are saying here?Why do you say that? Just take a look at this.View attachment 35604
Here, we asked to find volumes not area. Here is a solution provided for it.View attachment 35605
So how do you compare or contrast this?
Are you serious? The formula for the volume of a cylinder requires you to know the area of the base. V = (pir^2)*height = (area of the base)*heightBut we were not required to find area. Are we?
They might be, but you are 100% correct that we just can't assume that. Good catch.No - area of the bases of the cylinders are NOT equal.
No, they can't be equal, because the heights are different, and the cylinders are similar.The [areas of the bases] might be [equal], bit you are 100% correct that we just can't assume that. Good catch.
But we don't have to use that formula.Are you serious? The formula for the volume of a cylinder requires you to know the area of the base. V = (pir^2)*height = (area of the base)*height
Your correct.No, they can't be equal, because the heights are different, and the cylinders are similar.
...and what formula do you use.But we don't have to use that formula.
I am thinking that since they are asking of volume of bigger drum, volume are are in three dimensions- cubes. We need to take the ratio of the heights which is linear scale factor and convert it to cube scale factor in other to find the volume of bigger drum.
Coming back to the op:Are you serious? The formula for the volume of a cylinder requires you to know the area of the base. V = (pir^2)*height = (area of the base)*height
What is the relationship between mass and area as regards to this particular problem?
Yes, poor indeed as it's related to this very matter.Why are you misleading this poor person?
Yes, area is in two dimensions, while volume is three dimensions. What about that?Are you serious? The formula for the volume of a cylinder requires you to know the area of the base. V = (pir^2)*height = (area of the base)*height
That is true. What is also true is that the VOLUME of a cylinder is BASE*height. The base is the AREA of a circle--aka the baseYes, area is in two dimensions, while volume is three dimensions. What about that?
