What is the volume of a rectangular prism that is 6 inches high with a base area of 12 square inches?
Volume = cross-sectional area x length, so 6 x 12=72
How do you calculate the cross sectional area of a rectangular tube?
To calculate the cross sectional area of a rectangular tube, multiply the widths of two adjacent sides of the tube.
How are perimeter ratio and area ratio related?
Perimeter ratio is: is a path that surrounds an area and area ratio is: Area ratio is the cross sectional area of the nozzle exit divided by the cross sectional area of the nozzle throat.
What is the cross-sectional area in square feet of a 8 inch pipe?
8 inch schedule 40 pipe has a cross sectional area of 0.0583 square feet
What is the surface area of a prism with a length of 15mm a height of 4 mm and a width of 3mm?
The surface area of a prism is twice the area of the end plus the area of all the sides. For a prism with a polygon cross-section the area of all the sides if given by the perimeter of the cross-section polygon multiplied by the length of the prism. Assuming you have a prism of cross-section that is a rectangle with sides 4 mm and 3 mm, and is 15 mm long (ie it is an oblong), its surface area is: → surface_area = 2 × (4 mm × 3 mm) + 2 × (4 mm + 3 mm) × 15 mm → surface area = 2 × 12 mm² + 14 mm × 15 mm = 234 mm²
What is the volume for a trapezoidal right prism?
Area of trapezoidal cross-section x length.
How do you measure the cubic interior of a prism?
It is the cross sectional area of the prism multiplied by its length.
How many areas do you need to know to get the surface area of a rectangular prism?
Three: 1) The area of the cross-sectional rectangle end 2) The area of the rectangle joining the longer side of the cross-sectional rectangular ends 3) The area of the rectangle joining the shorter side of the cross-sectional rectangular ends Then the surface area of the rectangular prism is twice the sum of these three areas.
Do the vertical cross sectional shapes of a triangular prism have all congruent triangles?
Yes the triangular cross-section area is congruent throughput the prism.
What does volume equal in math?
Volume of a prism is equal to the cross-sectional area multiplied by the height.
What is the surface area of a trapezoidal prism?
I dont know:d
What does the similarities in finding the volume of a rectangular prism and a triangular prism?
In both cases, volume = cross-sectional area x length
What the volume of a prism with a height of Cm and a width of Cm?
The answer requires the cross-sectional area of the prism - which, in turn, requires more than just its width.
How do you compare the method for finding volume of a prism and of a cylindr?
Volume = cross-sectional Area x Length (or height).
How do you measure volume of prisms?
Assuming the cross-section of the prism is such that its area is easily calculated, Volume of prism = Cross-sectional area * length If not, the most effective way is to submerge it in water and measure the volume of water displaced.
How is the volume of a cylinder related to the volume of a triangular prism?
In both cases, Volume = Length times Cross-sectional area.
Formula for volume of a trapezoidal prism?
the volume of a trapezoidal prism is equal to the height times the base area of the trapezoid. First you find the area of trapezoid h(a+b)/2 h is the height of the trapezoid, not the height of the prism a is the length of the top b is the length of the bottom Then you find the volume of the trapezoidal prism with this formula H*h(a+b)/2 H is the height of the prism. Multiply H by the area of the trapezoid that you found in step one.
