'Sup, /eng/, I'm in need of help from the mathematically inclined.

I want to make iron plates for lifting exercises.

The dimensions are as follows:

>450 mm diameter of the plate

>34 mm diameter of the hole in the middle of the plate

Now, according to the known information, what would be the other dimensions of the plates with varying weight given that the above dimensions cannot be changed.

For a:

>25 kg plate

>20 kg plate

>15 kg plate

>10 kg plate

>5 kg plate

>2.5 kg plate

Thanks in advance.

All units in mm

If cast iron:

2.55

5.11

10.22

15.33

20.44

25.55

If steel,

2.34

4.69

9.37

14.06

18.74

23.43

Lean to math you fucking retard.

[1] Weight = Volume * Density

Check with units

kg = [m³] * [kg/m³]

>OK. That makes sense

The m³ cancel each other and you have kg = kg

Now check what information you have and what you want.

Weight (OK) = Volume (Incomplete) * Density (Google)

Density of Steel = 8050 kg/m³

[2] Volume (Incomplete) = Area (OK) * Depth (Unknown)

Substitute Equation [2] into Equation [1] and solve for depth

Weight = [Area * Depth] * Density

Weight / (Area * Density) = Depth

Close enough.
