Surface Area and Volume Hots Questions

This document contains 18 practice problems related to calculating volumes and surface areas of various 3D shapes such as spheres, cylinders, cones, hemispheres, and cuboids. The shapes and scenarios described in the problems involve determining lengths, radii, heights, times, ratios, and quantities based on given dimensional relationships and rates of change for the objects. The goal is to use formulas for surface area and volume to find unknown values about the dimensions and capacities of the 3D objects.
