  2. Cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone

    A generalized cone is the surface created by the set of lines passing through a vertex and every point on a boundary ... and so the formula for volume becomes [6]

  3. The Method of Mechanical Theorems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Method_of_Mechanical...

    The condition of balance ensures that the volume of the cone plus the volume of the sphere is equal to the volume of the cylinder. The volume of the cylinder is the cross section area, times the height, which is 2, or . Archimedes could also find the volume of the cone using the mechanical method, since, in modern terms, the integral involved ...

  4. Hypercone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercone

    This volume is given by the formula ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ π r 4, and is the 4-dimensional equivalent of the solid cone. The ball may be thought of as the 'lid' at the base of the 4-dimensional cone's nappe, and the origin becomes its 'apex'.

    1. A cone and a cylinder have radius r and height h. 2. Their volume ratio is maintained when the height is scaled to h' = r √Π. 3. The cone is decomposed into thin slices. 4. Each slice is transformed into a square of side h' using Cavalieri's principle. 5. The pyramid is replicated twice. 6. Combining them into a cube shows that the volume ...

  6. Pappus's centroid theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pappus's_centroid_theorem

    The theorem applied to an open cylinder, cone and a sphere to obtain their surface areas. The centroids are at a distance a (in red) from the axis of rotation.. In mathematics, Pappus's centroid theorem (also known as the Guldinus theorem, Pappus–Guldinus theorem or Pappus's theorem) is either of two related theorems dealing with the surface areas and volumes of surfaces and solids of ...

  7. Conic section - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conic_section

    A conic is the curve obtained as the intersection of a plane, called the cutting plane, with the surface of a double cone (a cone with two nappes).It is usually assumed that the cone is a right circular cone for the purpose of easy description, but this is not required; any double cone with some circular cross-section will suffice.

  8. Tree volume measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_volume_measurement

    The neiloid form often applies near the base of tree trunks exhibiting root flare, and just below limb bulges. The formula for the volume of a frustum of a neiloid: [25] V = (h)[A b + (A b 2 A u) 1/3 + (A b A u 2) 1/3 + A u], where A b is the area of the base and A u is the area of the top of the frustum. This volume may also be expressed in ...

    Partielle Differentialgleichungen in der Physik, the sixth and final volume of its series, was published in 1947 by Dieterich'sche Verlagsbuchhandlung while it was translated to English by Ernst G. Straus and published by Academic Press in 1949 under the title Partial Differential Equations in Physics. The book was reviewed by George F. Carrier ...
