  2. Method of exhaustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_exhaustion

    Proposition 2: The area of circles is proportional to the square of their diameters. [3] Proposition 5: The volumes of two tetrahedra of the same height are proportional to the areas of their triangular bases. [4] Proposition 10: The volume of a cone is a third of the volume of the corresponding cylinder which has the same base and height. [5]

  3. Mapping cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mapping_cylinder

    One can use the mapping cylinder to construct homotopy colimits: [citation needed] this follows from the general statement that any category with all pushouts and coequalizers has all colimits. That is, given a diagram, replace the maps by cofibrations (using the mapping cylinder) and then take the ordinary pointwise limit (one must take a bit ...

    The volume is ⁠ 4 / 3 ⁠ π r 3 for the sphere, and 2 π r 3 for the cylinder. The surface area is 4 π r 2 for the sphere, and 6 π r 2 for the cylinder (including its two bases), where r is the radius of the sphere and cylinder.

  5. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    The sphere has a volume two-thirds that of the circumscribed cylinder and a surface area two-thirds that of the cylinder (including the bases). Since the values for the cylinder were already known, he obtained, for the first time, the corresponding values for the sphere. The volume of a sphere of radius r is ⁠ 4 / 3 ⁠ π r 3 = ⁠ 2 / 3 ...

  6. Potential flow around a circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_flow_around_a...

    On the surface of the cylinder, or r = R, pressure varies from a maximum of 1 (shown in the diagram in red) at the stagnation points at θ = 0 and θ = π to a minimum of −3 (shown in blue) on the sides of the cylinder, at θ = ⁠ π / 2 ⁠ and θ = ⁠ 3π / 2 ⁠. Likewise, V varies from V = 0 at the stagnation points to V = 2U on the ...

  7. Solid geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_geometry

    A solid figure is the region of 3D space bounded by a two-dimensional closed surface; for example, a solid ball consists of a sphere and its interior. Solid geometry deals with the measurements of volumes of various solids, including pyramids , prisms (and other polyhedrons ), cubes , cylinders , cones (and truncated cones ).

  8. Right circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_circular_cylinder

    A right circular cylinder is a cylinder whose generatrices are perpendicular to the bases. Thus, in a right circular cylinder, the generatrix and the height have the same measurements. [ 1 ] It is also less often called a cylinder of revolution, because it can be obtained by rotating a rectangle of sides r {\displaystyle r} and g {\displaystyle ...

  9. Packing problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing_problems

    For example, it is possible to pack 147 rectangles of size (137,95) in a rectangle of size (1600,1230). Packing different rectangles in a rectangle : The problem of packing multiple rectangles of varying widths and heights in an enclosing rectangle of minimum area (but with no boundaries on the enclosing rectangle's width or height) has an ...
