Test on Chapter 12, Portion 2

Instructions and Scoring. Please read carefully before you begin. Check (þ) each item as you read it (1 pt. each).

¨      Do not discuss this test with anyone except Mr. Hansen until the answers are posted on the Web.

¨      It is OK now to discuss yesterday’s test with anyone you wish.

¨      There will be a 1-point deduction for each unnecessary disturbance during the test: speaking out of turn, asking a question that has already been answered, etc. If you have a question, please raise your hand and keep working until I spot you. This may take a minute. Please do not call out my name, since that creates unnecessary noise. If you see a typographical error, please mark it clearly for extra credit. If you finish early, please leave quietly and unobtrusively.

¨      No calculator is permitted.

¨      There is a homework assignment on the Web for Tuesday.

¨      This portion is worth 50 points. Yesterday’s portion was also worth 50 points. The higher of the two will be doubled.


 

Part I.

Free Response. Show your work. Answers without clear, readable work will not earn full credit even if they are correct. Units of measure are also required for full credit.

 

 

1.

The diameter of the sun is approximately 800,000 miles, or approximately 1,300,000 km. Using rough estimation techniques, develop an approximate figure for the volume of the sun. (For example, you may round p to 3, you may round 8 up to 10, and you may round 1.3 to 1.) Show your work.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.

The earth’s diameter is approximately 1/100 that of the sun (8000 miles, or about 13,000 km). Estimate the volume of the earth, not as a number, but as a fraction of the volume of the sun. For example, if your answer is 1/1000th, you would write “1/1000” as your answer, not an answer in mi3 or km3. Hint: Although you can do this by computing a new answer and comparing it to #1, there is a much faster shortcut that you are free to use. Show your work.


 

3.(a)

Sketch a right circular cone whose height is 8 cm and whose radius is 6 cm. Then show the lower frustum of height 4 cm that is within the large cone. Your marked-up diagram is worth half credit. Make it large enough to fill most of the space below.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(b)

Compute the volume of the frustum.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(c)

Compute the total surface area of the frustum.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4.

Compute the volume and total surface area of a right circular cylinder whose diameter is 8 inches and whose diagonal (measured from far corner to far corner) is 10 inches. A sketch is on the board, and you should feel free to copy it.
