(b) A worker wishes to pile sand onto a circular area in his yard.
The radius of the circle is R. No sand is to spill onto the surrounding
area; see Fig. Show that the greatest volume of sand that can be stored
in this manner is mu,R 3/3 .where us is the coefficient of static
friction of sand on sand. (The volume of a cone is Ah/3, where A is
the base area and h is the height.)
A piece of wire of length 1.00 m is cut into two parts, one of which is bent into a shape of a circle and the other into the shape of a square. How should the wire be cut so that the sum of the enclosed areas is a minimum?
In recreational diving, divers can only reach 40 meters, why is this so?

- As discussed a person’s percentage of body fat can be estimated by weighing the person both in air and underwater, from which the average density ρavgcan be calculated. A widely used equation that relates average body density to fat percentage is the Siri equation, , body fat = (495/ρavg) - 450, where ρavg is measured in g/cm3.
