On your whiteboards A : B 5 : 6 25 : 36 125 : 216 LSF ASF VSF Volume of B = 5000 125 x 216 = 8640 cm3 X : Y 2 : 3 4 : 9 8 : 27 LSF ASF VSF SA of X = 225 9 x 4 = 100 cm2
Small : Large 1 : 1.44 1 : 1.2 ASF LSF Height 10cm : 12cm (44% increase) (10cm x 1.2)
Did you expect these answers? Small : Large 1/5 : 1 1/125 : 1 LSF VSF Mass is directly proportional to volume. So the mass will increase by the same factor as the volume if the two spheres have the same density. Mass of smaller spheres = 375 x 1/125 = 3kg (1/5 of the original) (1/5 cubed) Small : Large 1/5 : 1 1/25 : 1 LSF ASF SA of 1 smaller sphere = 8000 x 1/25 = 320 cm2 (1/5 of the original) (1/5 squared) If each small sphere has a volume 1/125 of the original, then there must be 125 smaller spheres. Thus, the total SA = 125 x 320 = 40,000 cm2.
If the total height is 3h, then the height of the tip of the cone (which is similar to the whole cone) is 1h. LSF VSF Tip of Cone : Whole Cone 1 : 3 1 : 27 The volume of the whole cone is 27 times bigger than the tip. Volume of small cone Volume of cup (a frustum ) = 459 17 = 442cm3 = 459cm3 27 = 17cm3
