Concept explainers

Cylinders

A cylinder is a three-dimensional solid shape with two parallel and congruent circular bases, joined by a curved surface at a fixed distance. A cylinder has an infinite curvilinear surface.

Cones

A cone is a three-dimensional solid shape having a flat base and a pointed edge at the top. The flat base of the cone tapers smoothly to form the pointed edge known as the apex. The flat base of the cone can either be circular or elliptical. A cone is drawn by joining the apex to all points on the base, using segments, lines, or half-lines, provided that the apex and the base both are in different planes.

The volume of an enclosed gas is based on the volume of its container. Increased pressure can force gas into a smaller enclosure. An oxygen tank shaped like a cylinder holds 4.9 cubic feet of gas and is 35.0 inches tall. Its contents are released into a second cylindrical tank that is 50.0 inches tall with a 5.25-inch radius. Note: 1 ft3 = 1,728 in³. 1. What is the radius of the first tank in inches? 2. What is the volume of the second tank, in cubic inches? 3. By how much will the gas expand or contract to fill the second tank? 4. Is the pressure in the second tank greater or less than the pressure in the first tank?
