Geometric Solids
Solids are three-dimensional objects.
•In sketching, two-dimensional shapes are used to create the illusion of three-dimensional solids.

Properties of Solids
Volume, mass, weight, density, and surface area are properties that all solids possess. These properties are used by engineers and manufacturers to determine material type, cost, and other factors associated with the design of objects.

Volume of a Rectangular Prism
A rectangular prism has at least one side that is different in length from the other two.
The sides are identified as width (w), depth (d), and height (h).

Mass
Mass (M) refers to the quantity of matter in an object. It is often confused with the concept of weight in the SI system.

Weight
Weight (W) is the force of gravity acting on an object. It is often confused with the concept of mass in the U S Customary System.

Mass vs. Weight
Contrary to popular practice, the terms mass and weight are not interchangeable and do not represent the same concept.
W = Mgweight = mass x acceleration due to gravity(lbs) (slugs) (ft/sec2)
g = 32.16 ft/sec2

Mass vs. Weight
An object, whether on the surface of the earth, in orbit, or on the surface of the moon, still has the same mass.
•However, the weight of the same object will be different in all three instances because the magnitude of gravity is different.

Mass vs. Weight
• Each measurement system has fallen prey to erroneous cultural practices.
• In the SI system, a person’s weight is typically recorded in kilograms when it should be recorded in Newtons.
• In the U S Customary System, an object’s mass is typically recorded in pounds when it should be recorded in slugs.

Weight Density
Weight density (WD) is an object’s weight per unit volume.

Calculating Weight
To calculate the weight (W) of any solid, its volume (V) and weight density (Dw) must be known.
W = VDw
W = VDw
W = 3.6 lb
W = 36.75 in.3 x .098 lb/in.3

Area vs. Surface Area
There is a distinction between area (A) and surface area (SA).
•Area describes the measure of the two-dimensional space enclosed by a shape.
•Surface area is the sum of all the areas of the faces of a three-dimensional solid.
![Page 18: Properties of Geometric Solids](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56812b48550346895d8f6498/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Surface Area Calculations
In order to calculate the surface area (SA) of a cube, the area (A) of any one of its faces must be known.
The formula for calculating the surface area (SA) of a cube is:
SA = 6A
SA = 6A
SA = 96 in.2
SA = 6 x (4 in. x 4 in.)

Surface Area Calculations
In order to calculate the surface area (SA) of a rectangular prism, the area (A) of the three different faces must be known.
SA = 2(wd + wh + dh)
SA = 88.25 in.2
SA = 2 x 44.125 in.2
SA = 2(wd + wh + dh)

Surface Area Calculations
In order to calculate the surface area (SA) of a cylinder, the area of the curved face and the combined area of the circular faces must be known.
SA = (2r)h + 2(r2)
SA = 2(r)h + 2(r2)
SA = 88.25 in.2
SA = 56.52 in.2 + 14.13 in.2
