One of my wife's co-worker's grandmother was cremated and then divvied up betwen various relatives. The co-worker has 1 cups worth of granny and has asked if I would make a small turned box.
I could use some math and conversion checking by others to correct or confirm my calculations:
If the paraboloid of the interior void was 3" in diameter, how tall would it need to be? (My answer comes out to about 4.6".)
I've put up a simple GIF drawing of the problem - the area to solve for is in white with the "?".
Thanks muchly.
