Thanks everyone, who came out and wrote today! We had about thirty people in total. The last writer finished at approximated 14:50pm. It seems like the final will take approximately three hours. Please attempt the mock final, it is the best preparation for the real final.

Homework #5 Question 4

Posted in Math by pgadey on 2018/07/20

Consider a solid ball of radius $R$ . Cut a cylindrical hole, through the center of the ball, such that the remaining body has height $h$ . Call this the donut $D(R,h)$ . Use Cavalieri’s principle to calculate the volume of $D(R,h)$ . Calculate the volumes of $D(25,6)$ and $D(50,6)$ .

donut

Several students have asked what $D(R,h)$ looks like. Here are some pictures that I found to illustrate the concept. The donut $D(R,h)$ is the region between the red sphere and blue cylinder. The golden balls below show various views of the donut. The donut should fit between the two planes $z=h/2$ and $z=-h/2$ , so that it has total height $h$ .
