    Calculating Volume of Arbitrary Cross-Section Triangles

    I don't understand what word planar means. If you see something bending then it's and optical illusion. I drew a semicircle which has a triangle cross-section which I did say is always there. It is unfortunate that you feel I'm not looking for answers because I am. I was merely trying to make...

    Calculating Volume of Arbitrary Cross-Section Triangles

    I have no idea what that means. You didn't just seriously blurt something like that after coming up in here claiming that wedge calculation was trivial. XD I am of a mind to let you think about that for yourself but since you just proved you're not so smart after all, I'll tell you. The idea...

    Calculating Volume of Arbitrary Cross-Section Triangles

    Here I'll show you mr. Trivial I don't think that applies to the wedge in the picture. Can you please provide some sort of an example, I have never done anything like that.

    Calculating Volume of Arbitrary Cross-Section Triangles

    Still waiting for a proof about it's triviality. Yes, to a single point it makes a sort of a cone. How did you even come up with that based on the picture? I doubt that it's something I need. Anyway none of those are correct answers because that would mean I have to use a different equation for...

    Calculating Volume of Arbitrary Cross-Section Triangles

    Umm... do you mean shrinks to a point like a cone? My initial idea was what I show in the picture but I suppose that could also be a possibility. Oh and you can disregard most of what I said in post #7. This dude said calculating the volume was trivial which made be doubt myself big time. That...

    Calculating Volume of Arbitrary Cross-Section Triangles

    I'm so sorry. I just realized I was blinded by (confused) my problem. It's been a while since I thought about the problem. Calculating the volume is trivial as mentioned earlier which would be Area multiplied by half the thickness, right? The real problem is getting the center of the volume...

    Calculating Volume of Arbitrary Cross-Section Triangles

    I mean that looking from the side, the object looks like a wedge or a triangle. What do you mean how is the volume defined? Yes, calculating the volume when the cross-section is a rectangle is simple but the problem is, it could be any shape. Of course if you think it is still trivial then by...

    Calculating Volume of Arbitrary Cross-Section Triangles

    Hello, I'm in the process of creating a calculation spreadsheet with Excel. In this spreadsheet I need to calculate a volume of an object that has an arbitrary cross-section but from the side of the cross-section, it is always triangle. At the moment the spreadsheet calculates the volume of a...

    MHB Summation Problems: Solve Delta ti * T(Delta ti) for Age in Days

    Hello, Some of you may know this equation and I need help solving it. Delta ti is the time in days at a certain temperature (0 - 80). T(Delta ti) is the temperature during Delta ti. The answer is supposed to be an age in days but my tries have given me answers that are below 1, which doesn't...
