Answer:

The area of the base is 15 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

33 3/4 = 33.75

2 1/4 = 2.25

To calculate the area base of a rectangular prism we have to use the following formula:

a = area

v = volume = 33.75 in³

h = height = 2.25 in

v = a * h

we solve a

a = v / h

we replace the values that we know

a = 33.75 in³ / 2.25 in

a = 15 in²

The area of the base is 15 in²

A sphere is just enclosed inside a right circular cylinder. If the volume of the sphere is 140 cm3, find the volume of the gap b

alexgriva [62]

-----------------------------------------------------------
Find Radius :
-----------------------------------------------------------
$\text {Volume of a sphere =} \dfrac{4}{3} \pi r^3$

$\dfrac{4}{3} \pi r^3 = 140$

$\pi r^3 = 140 \times \dfrac{3}{4}$

$\pi r^3 = 105$

$r^3 = \dfrac{105}{ \pi}$

$r = 3.22 \ cm$

-----------------------------------------------------------
Find volume of the cylinder :
-----------------------------------------------------------
$\text {Volume of the cylinder = } \pi r^2h$

$\text {Volume of the cylinder = } \pi ((3.22)^2(3.22 \times 2)$

$\text {Volume of the cylinder = } 209.77 \ cm^3$

-----------------------------------------------------------
Find volume of the gap :
-----------------------------------------------------------
$\text {Volume of gap = } 209.77 - 140$

$\text {Volume of gap = } 69.77 \ cm^3$

-----------------------------------------------------------
$\bf \text {Answer : } 69.77 \cm^3$
