What is the difference between spherical and round?

"Spherical" refers to having the shape of a sphere, which is a three-dimensional shape with all points equidistant from its center. "Round" is a more general term that can be used to describe any shape with smooth, curved lines and no sharp edges. A sphere is always round, but not all round shapes are spherical.


Difference between thin and thick cylinder?

A thin cylinder has a wall thickness significantly smaller than its radius, while a thick cylinder has a wall thickness comparable to or larger than its radius. Thin cylinders typically use simpler stress analysis assumptions, whereas thick cylinders require more complex stress analysis methods to account for the effect of the thicker walls.


What is cylinder in eyeglasses?

The cylinder is a measure of the astigmatism correction for each eye. Eyes that have astigmatism actually require lenses with two different focal powers. The two different powers are represented by the Sphere and Cylinder. The axis represents the orientation of the sphere power.


Explain how a Van de Graaff generator builds up a static charge.?

A Van de Graaff generator uses a motor to transfer positive charge from a grounded metal sphere to a rubber belt continuously. The charge builds up on the metal sphere as the belt moves, creating a high voltage difference between the sphere and the belt due to the continuous transfer of charge.


What are the properties of a hollow cylinder with respect to its volume and surface area, and how does the presence of the keyword "j" relate to these properties?

A hollow cylinder has a volume that is the difference between the volume of the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder. The surface area of a hollow cylinder is the sum of the surface areas of the outer and inner cylinders, plus the surface area of the two circular ends. The presence of the keyword "j" does not directly relate to the properties of a hollow cylinder.

What was Archimedes discovery about sphere and cylinder?

He discovered the relationship between a sphere and a circumscribed cylinder of the same height and diameter. The volume is 4⁄3πr3 for the sphere, and 2πr3 for the cylinder. The surface area is 4πr2 for the sphere, and 6πr2 for the cylinder (including its two bases), where r is the radius of the sphere and cylinder. The sphere has a volume and surface area two-thirds that of the cylinder. A sculpted sphere and cylinder were placed on the tomb of Archimedes at his request.
