Stripes on a measuring cup The interior of a typical 1-L mea- suring cup is a right circular cylinder of radius 6 cm (see accompa- nying figure). The volume of water we put in the cup is therefore a function of the level h to which the cup is filled, the formula being V = m6'h = 367h.

Street light post The post of a street light is shaped like a truncated cone, as shown in the picture below. It is a large cone minus a smaller top cone. The large cone is 30 feet tall with base radius 1 foot. The smaller cone is 10 feet tall with base radius of 0.5 feet. To the nearest tenth, (a) find the volume of the large cone. (b) find the volume of the small cone. (c) find the volume of the post by subtracting the volume of the small cone from the volume of the large cone.
Forming a pen We want to form a rectangle pen of area 100 square feet. One side of the pen is to be formed by an existing buliding and the other three sides by a fence see Figure 2.106. Let W be the length, in feet, of the sides of the rectangle perpendicular to the buliding, and let L be the length, in feet, of the other side. Figure 2.106 a.Find a formula for the total amount of fence needed in terms of W and L b. Express, as an equation involving W and L, the requirement that the area be 100 square feet. c.Solve the equation you found in part b for L. d.Use your answers to parts a and c to find a formula for F, the total amount, in feet, of fence needed, as a function of W alone. e.Make a graph of F versus W. f.Determine the dimension of the rectangle that requires a minimum amount of fence.
Dimensions of a Can A cylindrical can has a volume of 40cm3 and is 10cm tall. What is its diameter? Hint: Use the volume formula listed on the inside front cover of this book.
Volume of a Rocket A rocket consists of a right circular cylinder of height 20 m surmounted by a cone whose height and diameter are equal radius is the same as that of the section. What should this radius be (rounded to two decimal places) if the total volume is to be 500/3m3?
Relativistic Length A rocket ship travelling near the speed of light appears to a stationary observer to shorten with speed. A rocket ship with a length of 200 meters will appear to a stationary observer to have a length of 2001-r2 meters, where r is the ratio of the velocity of the ship to the speed of light. What is the apparent length of the rocket ship if it is travelling at a speed that is 99% of the speed of light?

Properller Size An ideal diameter d, in feet, of a ships propeller is given by the formula d=50hr315 Here h is the horsepower of the engine driving the properller, and r is the maximum revolutions per minute of the properller. a. The Victory Ships produced in Wolrd War II had and engine that produced 6000 horespower and rotated the prepeller at 100 revolutions per minute. According to the formula, what should have been the diameter of their properllers? The actual diameter was 18.2 feet. b. If a ships engine has a horsepower of 8500 turning a propeller with a diameter of 20 feet, what should be the maximum revolutions per minute of the propeller?
