Answer
Step-by-step solution
7 steps2.1.1) Convert the height of the tail fin of the aircraft to millimetres.
Identify the height of the tail fin.
From the text, the height of the tail fin of the aircraft is .
Convert metres to millimetres.
There are in .
The height of the tail fin is .
2.1.2) Calculate the area of the floor of one bay of the hangar.
Identify the length and width of one bay from Figure 1.
The length of one bay is .
The width (or depth) of the hangar floor is .Use the formula for the area of a rectangle.
The area of the floor of one bay of the hangar is .
2.1.3) Calculate the thickness of the floor to the nearest centimetre.
Identify the given volume and the area calculated in 2.1.2.
The volume of concrete for one bay is .
The area of the floor of one bay is .Use the formula for volume to find the thickness (height).
Rearrange to solve for thickness:
Convert the thickness from metres to centimetres and round to the nearest centimetre.
There are in .
Rounding to the nearest centimetre:
The thickness of the floor to the nearest centimetre is .
