What is a cross section in math?
The cross section, of a 3D object, is the 2D shape made when a 2D plane cuts across the 3D object. Often "cross section" refers to the shape made when the plane is at right angles to an axis of the 3D object but this need not be the case.
What is the cross section of a paraboloid?
The cross section of a paraboloid, when sliced parallel to its axis of symmetry, is a parabola. If the slice is made perpendicular to the axis, the cross section can be a circle or an ellipse, depending on the orientation and position of the cut. The specific shape of the cross section will vary based on the location and angle of the slice in relation to the paraboloid.
What is a cross section of a right circular cone?
A cross section of a right circular cone is a two-dimensional shape obtained by slicing the cone perpendicular to its axis. Depending on the position of the cut, the cross section can be a circle, an ellipse, or a triangle. If the cut is made parallel to the base, the cross section will be a smaller circle. If the cut is made vertically through the apex and perpendicular to the base, it will form a triangle.
Can a square be a cross-section of a pyramid?
Yes, a square can be a cross-section of a pyramid, depending on how the cross-section is taken. If the cut is made parallel to the base of the pyramid and at a height where the sides are still straight and converge, the resulting section can be a square. However, this is only possible if the pyramid's base is also a square and the cut is made at the right height.
What is a hexagonal prism made by?
It has a 6 sided cross-section and a length
What is the difference between a cross section and a transverse section in anatomy?
A cross section in anatomy is a cut made across the body or an organ, showing its internal structure. A transverse section is a specific type of cross section that is made perpendicular to the long axis of the body or organ.
Does making the core of an electromagnet larger make it weaker?
No, the electromagnet is not made weaker by making the core larger. It can be made weaker by decreasing its current and/or turns of coil.
How does a wire's cross section affect resistance?
A wire with a larger cross section has lower resistance because there is more space for the electrons to flow through, reducing collisions. A smaller cross section increases resistance as there is less space for the electrons to move, causing more collisions and therefore higher resistance.

What does cross-section mean?
When a 3-dimensional (solid) object is cut by a plane, the 2-dimensional shape made where the solid object and the plane meet is the cross section.
Describe the cross-sections that are formed when a cylinder is intersected by a plane?
In Geometry, cross-section is the shape made when a solid is cut through by a plane. The cross section of a circular cylinder is a circle. * * * * * There are also cross-sections that are ellipses or rectangles.
What shape would you have if you made a horizontal cross-section of a square pyramid?
a square
What is the shape of the cross section of a hexagonal prism if the cut is made parallel to a base?
A hexagon.
What is the shape of the cross section of a cube if the cut is made across the diagonal of the cube?
Rectangle
