Dalex64 Member since: Mar 8, 2014 Threads: 3 Posts: 3687 | That would be the length of one dimension times the length of the other. One dimension is 500m The other dimension is the circumference, 50m times PI So the surface area is 500 * 50 * PI That's about 78,500 square meters. Assuming an inside diameter of 50m "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts." Daniel Patrick Moynihan |

Thanks! that easy? I'm stunned. I expected something a bit more complex.
Oh, yes. the exterior is thicker, but it doesn't contribute to the inner surface. Thanks again. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |
