Problema Solution
AN OIL SPILL OF 4399 CUBIC CENTIMETERS IS SPILLED ONTO A POND AND SPREADS OUT IN A CIRCULAR SHAPE HAVING A DIAMETER OF 536 CENTIMETERS. aPPROXIMATE THE THICKNESS OF THE OIL FILM TO FOUR DECIMAL PLACES. WRITE THE ANSWER IN SCIENTIFIC NOTATION.
Answer provided by our tutors
the volume of the oils spill is calculate using the formula for volume of cylinder
4399 = pi * (r^2) * h
r = 536/2 = 268
4399 = pi * 268^2 * h
h = 4399 / (pi * 268^2)
h = 0.01949550553189038711426040529839
h = 0.0195 cm
h = 1.95 x 10^(-2) cm
