A piece of paper rolled into a cylinder lengthwise would have a greater volume because it would have a larger radius compared to one rolled into a cylinder widthwise. The volume of a cylinder is maximized when the radius is maximized, which occurs when the paper is rolled lengthwise.

What weighs more rolled paper or unrolled?

Rolled paper weighs more than unrolled paper because when paper is rolled, it becomes more compact and dense. The volume of the paper remains the same, but the weight is distributed differently.


A tappered cup rolled on a flat surface makes a circular path What does this tell you about the tangential speed of the rim of the wide end of the cup compared with that of the rim of the narrow end?

The tangential speed of the rim of the wide end of the cup is greater than that of the narrow end because the circular path covered by the wide end is larger than that covered by the narrow end. The rim of the wide end has to cover a greater distance in the same amount of time, hence its tangential speed is higher.


As the truck rolled down the ramp what type of energy did it have?

The truck had kinetic energy as it rolled down the ramp because it was in motion. Kinetic energy is associated with the movement of an object.


Why capacitor in cylinder shape?

Capacitors in cylinder shape are commonly used for their ease of manufacturing and compact design. The cylindrical shape allows for efficient use of space and convenient mounting in electronic circuits. Additionally, cylindrical capacitors often have good thermal characteristics and can handle high voltage and capacitance values.


Why does a piece of paper fall more slowly when it is flat than when it was rolled up?

When a piece of paper is rolled up, it creates more air resistance due to its irregular shape compared to when it's flat. The increased air resistance slows down the fall of the rolled up paper compared to the flat paper.

You calculate the circumference of the cylinder. Once you know that, you can just multiply by the height, since effectively the side of a cylinder is just a rectangle rolled up.
