Two intersecting tubes 2018-08-15
From Tommy:
Hi, I am trying to determine a mathematical model for two metal tubes joining at various degrees for weld.
For instance, if I am trying to join the end of a tube to the side of another at a 90 degree angle, it will be a simple profile cut out of the joining tube.
Where it gets tricky is if you want to join the new tube at a given angle.
It would be very helpful if you could give insight as to how I can solve this problem or an equation I could work off of.
Thanks for the help!!

The volume of a test tube 2010-05-20
From Nick:
A maths question. I have a test tube (basically a cylinder but with a rounded bottom end) and the measurements are: the diameter or width of the tube is 31mm and the total length of the whole tube is 204mm. The question is:
(a) what's the volume of this test tube (rounded to the nearest cubic mm) and
(b) what's the capacity of this test tube (rounded to the nearest mL). I need to show the full mathematical workings out of the two, not just the answer. The problem is the circular bottom end of the tube, it isn't flat, that would make it rather "easy"or straightforward but this is a half-circle (like all test tubes are)!!

A paper towel roll 2009-08-19
From Jeff:
I am making a spiral tube with paper that is 2" in dia. and 102" long I will be using paper that is slit 3" wide how many lineal feet of paper will I need to to cover the 102" I will be using 3 rolls of paper that will over lap the other by half to make a hard tube (paper core) in a roll of paper towels Thanks Jeff

Measurements on a test tube 2007-10-30
From Bruce:
I figure that the surface area (SA) of a round bottom test tube can be determined by the equation SA = 2pi*h*r where r is the radius of the hemispheric bottom & column part, and h is the height (h) at any point upwards from the bottommost portion in the center of the tube.

I haven't been able to come up with an equation yet for the circumference of such a test tube at any point upwards along the tube based on the height in its center or on the distance along the outside of the tube.

Volume of an inner tube 2007-02-10
From Bubba:
For a science project, I'm collecting methane gas in an inner tube. In addition to measuring psi of the inner tube, I'd like to calculate the volume of gas collected. What is the formula for or how would I calculate the volume of an inner tube? I appreciate any help you can give me.

Thanks so much. Bubba

Volume of a tube 2004-01-14
From Mike:
where can you find how to get volume of a tube: 3 in across x 3 inch high
5 in across x 5 inch high
same formula for both. ONE will get the other.
