Find the volume of a frustum of a right pyramid whose lower base is a square with a side 5 in. and whose upper base is a square with a side 3 in., and whose altitude is 12 in. Round your answer to the nearest whole number

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The volume of a frustum of a pyramid is given as: Volume = h/3 [ A1 + A2 + √(A1 x A2) ] where h is the height, A1 is the area of the larger base and A2 is the smaller area. We are given all of the dimensions needed thus we can solve for the volume.

Volume = h/3 [ A1 + A2 + √(A1 x A2) ]
A1 = 5^2 = 25 in
A2 = 3^2 = 9 in

Volume = (12/3) [ 25 + 9 + √(25 x 9) ]
Volume = 196 in^2
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

Volume = 196 in^2

Explanation:

Volume = h/3 {A1 + A2 + √(A1 x A2) } is the formula for volume of a pyramid

How does the Doppler effect help a Beluga whale determine whether a fish is going away from it or toward it

Answers

If the Beluga Whale makes a sound that hits a fish moving towards it, the frequency of the sound that the Beluga gets back will be increased (higher pitch). If the fish was moving away when the sound hit it, the sound will come back to the whale in a lower frequency (lower pitch). So depending on what sound the whale hears reflected off the fish, it can tell if the fish is moving away or closer.

The three stages in the development of a full tropical cyclone are formative, mature, and A. tropical cyclone.
B. dissipation.
C. tornado.
D. damage.

Answers

Answer : B. dissipation.

The third stage in the development of a full tropical cyclone is the dissipation stage together with the formative and mature stage. In the formative stage, moist air moves upward causing rainfall and the circulation of the air. The cyclonic rotation is produced as more moist air are lifted. The mature stage is characterized by the increased wind speed and the sudden drop of the pressure while in the dissipation stage, the cyclone has gone weaker.
