The Volume of a Donut’s Torus.

Submitted : Spring 2021

 Using the major and minor radii of 5 donuts, I was able to calculate the volume of each donut’s torus using an integral equation of the washer method. Doing this, it was found that there is a correlation between the differences of values between the major and minor radius and the volume of the torus. The greater the distance between the two radii is, the smaller the torus’ volume is, and vice versa.
