An engineer is considering storing some radioactive material in a container she is creating. As a part of her design, she needs to evaluate the ratio of volume to surface area of two storage containers. Create curves that show the ratio of volume to surface area of a sphere and a square container. Create another graph that shows the difference in the ratios. Vary the radius or the side dimension of a square container from 50 cm to 4 m.
What will be an ideal response?
Note the ratio of volume to surface area of a sphere is twice that of a cube.
