a.

Answer to Problem 20PSC
The volume of ice in each cube is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
An ice cube manufacturer makes ice cubes with holes in them. Each cube is 4 cm on a side and hole is 2 cm in diameter.
Formula used:
Volume of cube
Where s = side of cube
Volume of hole
r = radius of hole,
h = height of hole.
Calculation:
Volume of cube
Each cube is 4 cm.

c.
To calculate: The total surface area of a single cube.
c.

Answer to Problem 20PSC
The total surface area of a single cube is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
An ice cube manufacturer makes ice cubes with holes in them. Each cube is 4 cm on a side and hole is 2 cm in diameter.
Formula used:
Facial area of the cube
where s = side of cube.
Base area of cylinder
where r = radius of cylinder
Lateral area of cylinder
where
r = radius of cylinder
h = height of cylinder.
Calculation:
Facial area of the cube
Facial area of the cube
Facial area of the cube
Base area of cylinder

d.
To verify: The total surface area of a cube is twice the total surface area of cube without holes.
d.

Explanation of Solution
Given information:
An ice cube manufacturer makes ice cubes with holes in them. Each cube is 4 cm on a side and hole is 2 cm in diameter.
The manufacture claims that these cube cool a drink twice as fast regular cubes of the same size.
Formula used:
Facial area of the cube
where s = side of cube.
Base area of cylinder
where r = radius of cylinder
Lateral area of cylinder
where
r = radius of cylinder
h = height of cylinder.
Proof:
Facial area of the cube
Facial area of the cube
Facial area of the cube
Base area of cylinder
Base area of cylinder
Base area of cylinder
Lateral area of cylinder
Lateral area of cylinder
Lateral area of cylinder
Total Area = 6(Facial area of the cube) − 2(Base area of cylinder) + Lateral area of cylinder
Total Area
Total Area
Total Area
Total area of a cube without hole
Total area of a cube without hole
Total area of a cube without hole
The ratio of area is as follows.
The manufacturer claim is not true because the ratio is not two.

- Can someone help me with this please?arrow_forwardMariela is in her classroom and looking out of a window at a tree, which is 20 feet away. Mariela’s line of sight to the top of the tree creates a 42° angle of elevation, and her line of sight to the base of the tree creates a 31° angle of depression. What is the height of the tree, rounded to the nearest foot? Be sure to show your work to explain how you got your answer.arrow_forward1arrow_forward
