Who discovered the volume of cylinder?
Archimedes. Archimedes published a work named "On the Sphere and Cylinder", where he proved the formulas for the surface area and volume of both spheres and cylinders. This is actually quite impressive, considering that he lacked the concept of calculus or limits to aid him. In calculus, the proof for the volume of a cylinder because trivial through integration by slicing.
How do you prove that a cone will fit into a cylinder exactlly 3 times?
If you look at the formulas for volume of a cone and volume of a cylinder you can see that a cone will fit in exactly three times if the height and radius of the cone and cylinder are equivalent. A cone has the equation: (1/3)*pi*(r^2)*h=Volume. And a cylinder has the equation: pi*(r^2)*h=Volume. With h equaling height and r equaling radius, you can see that 3*(Volume of a cone)=Volume of a cylinder. Therefore, the cone would fit in three times if height and radius are equivalent for the two figures.
What do you call a long cylinder?
A cylinder? A cylinder is still a cylinder regardless of how long it is.
Which characteristic do a cylinder and a sphere NOT have in common?
A cylinder has a plane face.A cylinder has a plane face.A cylinder has a plane face.A cylinder has a plane face.
What formulas would find the surface area of a right cylinder where you is the height r is the radius and La is the lateral area and BA is the base area?
I would use 2*pi*r*(r + h) square units.
