As the skater move from one side to the other, what happens to its total energy? What happens to its individual energies (kinetic and potential)?Discuss

Part 1: Energy Skate Park For this part of the lab, you will be using the following online simulation to study the energies. Select the Intro from the options. Select “Bar Graph” and “Grid” from the options on the right and “Slow Motion” from the bottom. Place the skater at the end of the track […]

A cylinder is placed within a cone as shown, so that the top of the cone and cylinder share the same plane and centre. The cone is of height 18cm and radius 3cm. What height must the cylinder have if its volume is to be maximum? You must use calculus and show any derivatives that you need to find when solving this problem. You do not have to show that the height you find will give a cylinder of maximum volume.
