Question:

A cylinder of pure aluminum has diameter of 2.88 inches and weighs 10.46 pounds.?

If the density for aluminum is 2.70g/cm^3, what is the height of the cylinder in meters?(1lb.453.59g, 1in.2.54cm, 12in.1ft) [Volume of a cylinder is needed in this equation]

Answer:

I would not put up with it, his son knows that his father will bend over backwards for himThat is why his daddy still takes care of himI'm surprise you did not bail when you found out you had to move to the attic to accommodate a grown man, I would leave, soon he and his son is going to bump heads or you and the stepson, to many grown people can not live under one roof to long.
Talk to your husbandHe's letting all this go on without consulting you, which is wrong.
Some important things while solving problems: -Use the same units as much as possible(SI Units should be used in this case because the final answer required is in meters.) -Avoid rounding (off) values while solvingStoring values in your calculator will probably helpSome Basic Formulas: Density Mass / Volume Cylinder's Volume Circle's Area x Height (pi x r^2) x Height Since we're solving for the height, we have to COMBINE and MANIPULATE equations so that the final unit is in inches, cm, or even better, m Density Mass/Volume Manipulation Volume Mass/Density (Equation 1) Volume (pi x r^2) x Height (Equation 2) Combining Equations 1 2: Mass/Density pi x r^2 x height (Equation 3) Manipulation of Equation 3 will produce: Height Mass / (Density x pi x r^2) Radius r Diameter/2 1.44 inches Solving for Height: Height [10.46 lb x (453.59 g / 1 lb)] / [ (2.70 g/cm^3) x pi x (1.44 in x 2.54 cm/1 in)^2 ] 41.81 cm Convert this to m41.81 cm x (1 m / 100cm) 0.4181 m 0.418 m (following the correct number of significant figures) The height of the cylinder is 0.418 m.
I don't blame you one bit for being unhappyYour husband is a pushover to his son and his son probably became the way he is from being enabled by his fatherDoes he realize that his kid is never going to grow up to be independent when he knows dad will always be there with an open wallet and an open house? Have you had a talk with your husband about the way he enables his son? Somewhere along the way he needs to realize that this is not a good way to parent, whether he hears it from you or someone elseThe question is, what are you going to do about your unhappiness? Nobody expects you to go back on your marriage vows but you need to stand up for yourself because it is your home too.
Advise the young man that manners are used in your homeAlso let him know help from his Dad and you has a time limitShow him what is expected so he can participate in his own lifeCigarettes?? That is a killer luxury no one should supportLastly, if he is in an apprenticeship he is getting some wageHe needs to pay something for living thereYour husband was disrespectful to bring anyone into the home without discussionYour family budget is for the TWO of you to decide on.
