The General Sherman tree, located in Sequoia National Park, is believed to be the most massive of the living things. If the overall density of the tree trunk is assumed to be 850 kg/m³, calculate the mass of the trunk by assuming that it may be approximately by two right conical frustra having lower and upper diameters of 11.2 and 5.6 m, and 5.6 and 3.3 m respectively, and the respective heights of 2.4 and 80.6 m. A frustum is a portion of a cone bounded by two planes, both perpendicular to the axis of the cone.

Step 2: Identify the dimensions of the quantities involved The second step is to identify the dimensions of the quantities involved in the problem. For example, if the problem involves distance, time, and velocity, the dimensions of these quantities would be length, time, and length/time, respectively. Step 3: Check if the units cancel out The third step is to check if the units cancel out. To do this, multiply the quantities together and check if the units cancel out, leaving only the desired unit. For example, if you are trying to find the velocity of an object and you know its distance and time, you can multiply distance by time to get velocity. If the units cancel out, you have a physically meaningful result. Step 4: Check if the result makes sense, to do this compare the units of the result with what you would expect based on the Robles statement. Using the step hints above, answer the question. You do not have to solve. Just imagine that you're teaching a friend how…

Measurements of a patient's temperature are routinely done several times a day in hospitalsDigital thermometers are used, and it is important to evaluate thermometers and select the best one. The accuracy of these thermometers is checked by immersing them in liquids of known temperature. Such liquids include an ice-water mixture at 0.0and boiling water at 100.0C at exactly 1 atmosphere pressure (boiling point with atmospheric pressureSuppose the data shown in the following table were obtained on three available thermometers and you were asked to choose the "best one of the three Which would you choose? Explain your choice
