A hollow garden roller, 63cm wide with a girth of 440cm, is made of 4cm thick iron. Find the volume of the iron.
Please scroll down to see the correct answer and solution guide.
Right Answer is:
SOLUTION
Outer circumference of roller = 440 cm
∴ Outer radius (R) = C2π=440×72×22=70cm
Thickness of iron = 4 cm
∴ Inner radius (r) = 70-4 = 66 cm
∴ Volume of iron used = πh(R2−r2)
= 227×63[(70)2cm3]
= 198 (70+66)(70-66) cm3
= 198×136×4=107712cm3
