4 Total engine weight: 2300 tons Maximum power: 108,920 hp at 102 rpm Wartsila-Sulzer RTA96-C turbocharged two-stroke diesel engine

5 What do they use this engine for? The big engines go on very large container Ships, such as the ones used to get cars across the seas. Ship owners like a single engine/single propeller design, and the new generation of larger container ships needed a bigger engine to propel them.

6 VOLUMES OF PRISMS The volume of a figure is the measure of the amount of space that the figure encloses. Volume is measured in cubic units.

7 Key Concept Volume of a Prism If a prism has a volume of V cubic units, a height of h units, and each base has a area of B square units, then V = Bh Area of base = B h

8 Example 1 Volume of a Triangular Prism Find the volume of the triangular prism. 8 cm 17 cm 13 cm a

9 Example 2 Volume of a Rectangular Prism SNOW The weight of wet snow is 6.9 pounds per cubic foot. How many pounds of wet snow would a person shovel from a rectangular driveway 25 feet by 10 feet after 1 foot of snow has fallen? 1 ft. 10 ft. 25 ft. (1 ft.)(10 ft.)(25 ft.) = 250 ft. 3 (250 ft. 3 )(6.9 lb./ft. 3 )= 1725 lb.

10 VOLUMES OF CYLINDERS Like the volume of a prism, the volume of a cylinder the product of the area of the base and the height.

11 Key Concept Volume of a Cylinder If a cylinder has a volume of V cubic units, a height of h units, and the bases have radii R square units, then V = Bh or V =  r 2 h Area of base =  r 2 r

12 Example 3Volume of a Cylinder Find the volume of the cylinder. 12.4 m 4.6 m

13 Example 4Volume of a Cylinder Find the volume of the cylinder. 5 in. 13 in.

14 Key Concept Cavalieri’s Principle If two solids have the same height and the same cross- sectional area at the same level, then they have the same volume.

15 Example 5Volume of an Oblique Cylinder 9 yd. 4 yd.
