Estimate the mass of a fly, roughly a cylinder
3.97 mm long and 2.1 mm in diameter. The
volume of a cylinder is π r 2 ℓ.

Correct answer: 1.37505 × 10−5 kg.

Explanation:

Let : ρ = 1.0 × 103 kg/m3 ,

r = 1.05 mm = 0.00105 m , and
ℓ = 3.97 mm = 0.00397 m .
The volume is V = π r 2 ℓ .

An automobile tire is rated to last for
80000 mi.
Estimate the number of revolutions the tire
will make in its lifetime. Assume the diameter
of the tire is 2.5 ft .

Correct answer: 5.37816 × 107 rev.

Explanation:

Let : d = 2.5 ft .
The circumference is C = π d, so

5280 ft 1 rev
n = (80000 mi)
1 mi π (2.5 ft)
= 5.37816 × 107 rev .
