a rectangle.
If it is lying along its length, and he cross section is, for example, a regular pentagon, then it will have no vertical lines.
The answer depends on the orientation of the pipe and the cut. Even if the cut is vertical, it can be along the axis (length) of the pipe, at right angles to it or at a slant. If the cut is along the axis, the cross section will be two rectangles where the length of the rectangle is the length of the pipe and the width is the thickness of the pipe. If the pipe has negligible thickness, this may be taken to be two parallel lines. If the cut is at right angles to the axis then the cross section will be an annulus which, when the thickness is negligible will become a circle. Finally, if the cut is skew, then you will get ellipses which will collapse to a single ellipse for negligible thickness.
It is the length along one of its edges.
The cross section of a pyramid shrinks from the shape of the base down to a point as you move along its axis from the base to the apex. The cross section of a prism is constant along its axis.
The cross section of cylinder along its length (parallel to the axis of symmetry has the shape of a rectangle.
a rectangle.
Ellipse * * * * * At right angles to the length, it would be a circle. Along the length it would be a rectangle. Only a diagonal cross section would be an ellipse.
A section of a cylinder along its length. The cross-section will be a quadrilateral. There will be 4 straight edges where the quadrilateral meets the curved face, and two curved edges from the top and bottom of the cylinder.
The length of a cylinder is the distance between its two circular bases. It can be calculated by measuring the height or the distance between the two bases along the axis of the cylinder.
The length and the diameter of a glass cylinder are two different measurements that relate to its overall size. The diameter is the distance across the circular cross-section of the cylinder, while the length is the distance from one end to the other along the central axis. These measurements are independent of each other, but together they help define the shape and volume of the glass cylinder.
A cylinder is a three-dimensional geometric shape with two parallel circular bases connected by a curved surface. It can also refer to a device that contains or compresses something in the shape of a cylinder, such as an engine cylinder or a gas cylinder.
It the circular face is uniform along it's length then the shape is a cylinder.
Myofibrils are composed of proteins such as actin, myosin, titin. These proteins are organized into thin filaments and thick filaments, which repeat along the length of the myofibril in sections called sarcomeres.
A cut along the transverse plane= transverse or cross section. *(If cut at an angle= oblique section).
Both are prisms. A prism is a 3D shape which has a uniform cross section, so anywhere along it's length where you take a slice you always see the same shape. To say which prism you mean we add the name of this cross section 'triangular prism', 'hexagonal prism' etc. We have a special name for a circular prism - a cylinder. Also, a rectangular prism is a cuboid.
Along with their attached rigid uppermost mantle, they are referred to as tectonic plates.
