    Geometry Homework: Sum of Circles and Triangles in Figure

    In my solution, first circle is 10 then the second is 5. after that, I used s = a/(1-r). a=25 since 5 will be squared and r=1/4. So my solution is A = pi[10^2 + 5^2 +25/(1-1/4). so my answer becomes 475/3 pi.

    Geometry Homework: Sum of Circles and Triangles in Figure

    Homework Statement Please see the attached figure The radius of the biggest circle is 10. The required is the sum of all circles and the sum of all triangles in the figure. There is an infinite number of circles and triangles. My answers are: for circle: 475/3 pi for triangle: 175/2...

    Buoyancy of a pail of water problem

    So buoyant force will be added? I got it. How about if water spills? The spilled water will be the buoyant force that will be out of the pail. However, the object exerts a force equal but opposite of the buoyant force, so it adds weight? correct?

    Buoyancy of a pail of water problem

    So it adds weight. The weight added will be the weight of the object when in air, since buoyant force will be cancelled?

    Buoyancy of a pail of water problem

    before, the tension is the weight of the object. when submerged, the tension change since there is a bouyant force that acts on the object. Am I correct?

    Buoyancy of a pail of water problem

    Well, I think it does not add. Since the object is hung? Am I correct?

    Buoyancy of a pail of water problem

    I have a question, if a hung object is submerged in a pail of water, does the weight of the pail with water increase. The object is still hung and no water spills.

    Diameter 0.8 m height 1.2 m floats in water

    This what I think: since the liquid is more dense than water, then the cone will float a little. From triangle, 0.8 becomes 0.8+y and 0.4 becomes 0.4-y. The ratio and proportion becomes 0.4/1.2 = x/(0.8 + y). Am I correct? or the cone will sink a little?

    How to Calculate Moist Air Dehumidification and Cooling Rates?

    Homework Statement Moist air at 40 C and 90% R.H. enters a dehumidifyer at the rate of 300 m3/min. The condensate and the saturated air exit at 10oC through separate exits. The pressure remains constant at 100 kPa. Determine (a) the mass flow rate of dry air, (b) the water removal rate, and...
