Cole is building a model rocket in science class. He selects the rocket parts from a set of solid cylinders and cones made from metal. Cole wants to build a rocket with the dimensions shown. For safety purposes, the maximum lift-off weight of each rocket is 10 pounds. Will Cole’s rocket meet the requirement for launch?

Part A
What will be the total length of the assembled rocket? Explain how you found your answer.
Part B
What is the approximate volume of the rocket. Use 3.14 for π. Explain.
Part C
If Cole’s rocket parts are made of aluminum weighing 0.006 pound per cubic centimeter, will Cole be able to launch his rocket? Explain.

Respuesta :

A.

30 since 25 + 5 = 30

The maximum lift-off weight of each rocket is 10 pounds thus, Cole’s rocket doesn't meet the requirement for launch.

What is the volume of a cylinder?

The volume of the cylinder is the product of the height, pie, and square of the radius.

The volume of the cylinder = [tex]\pi r^{2} h[/tex]

Part A

The total length of the assembled rocket will be the length of the cone and the cylinder.

Height of the cone

[tex]\sqrt{l^{2} -r^{2} } \\\\\sqrt{5^{2} -4^{2} } \\[/tex] = 3 cm

The total length of the assembled rocket  = 25 + 3 = 28cm

Part B

The volume of the rocket is the combined volume of the cone and cylinder.

=  [tex]\pi r^{2} h[/tex] + 1/3[tex]\pi r^{2} h[/tex]

= 4/3 [tex]\pi r^{2} h[/tex]

=  4/3 × 3.14 × 16 × 28

= 1875.62 cubic cm

To convert cm into pound

1875.62 cubic cm = 4.135 pound

Part C

If Cole’s rocket parts are made of aluminum weighing 0.006 pounds per cubic centimeter.

Then 1875.62 cubic cm × 0.006

= 11.253

For safety purposes, the maximum lift-off weight of each rocket is 10 pounds. but Cole’s rocket doesn't meet the requirement for launch.
