Suppose you have a map that uses the scale 1 cm to 200 m. You draw a new map of the same place using the scale 1 cm to 20 m. 1. How does your new map compare to your original map? 2. How much actual area does 1 cm? on your new map represent? 3. How much actual area did 1 cm? on your original map represent?

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.
A piece in the shape of a pyramid with a regular octagon (eight sided) base is machined from a solid block of bronze. Each side of the octagon base is 9.36 inches long. The height of the piece is 7.08 inches. The octagon base area 4.829, where s is the length of a side of the octagon. a. Determine the volume of the piece. Round the answer to the nearest cubic inch. b. Determine the weight of the piece. Round the answer to the nearest pound. Note: One cubic foot of the bronze used weighs 547.9 pounds per cubic foot.

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.

The Ideal Gas Law A mole of a chemical is a fixed number, like a dozen, of molecules or atoms in the case of an element of that compound. A mole of water, for example, is about 18 grams, or just over half an ounce in your kitchen. Chemists often use the mole as the measure of the amount of a chemical compound. A mole of carbon dioxide has a fixed mass, but the volume V that it occupies depends on pressure p and temperature T; greater pressure tends to compress the gas into a smaller volume, whereas increasing temperature tends to make the gas expand into a larger volume. If we measure the pressure in atmospheres 1 atm is the pressure exerted by the atmosphere at sea level, the temperature in kelvins, and the volume in liters, then the relationship is given by the ideal gas law: pV=0.082T. a. Solve the ideal gas law for the volume V. b. What is the volume of 1 mole of carbon dioxide under 3 atm of pressure at a temperature of 300 kelvins? c. Solve the ideal gas law for pressure. d. What is the pressure on 1 mole of carbon dioxide if it occupies a volume of 0.4 liter at a temperature of 350 kelvins? e. Solve the ideal gas law for temperature. f. At what temperature will 1 mole of carbon dioxide occupy a volume of 2 liters under a pressure of 0.3 atm?
It is sometimes impractical to make engineering drawings full size. If the part to be drawn is very large or small a scale drawing is generally made. The scale, which is shown on drawing, compares the lengths of the lines on the drawing to the dimensions on the part. A scale on a drawing that states 14=1means the drawing is one-quarter the size of the part. It is expressed as a ratio of 1:4 or 14 . A scale drawing that states 2=1means that drawing is double the size of the part. It is expressed as a ratio of 2:1 or 21 . The actual dimensions of a steel support are given in Figure 20-11. All dimensions are in inches. Using the proportion given, compute the lengths for each unknown in the table. Round the answers to 3 decimal places where necessary.
