A corn shaped somewhat like a cone, has the redious of it's broadcast end. find on the entire cob. example 6 of
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
GIVEN :-
radius = 2.1 cm
length ( height ) = 20 cm
1 cm^2 of the surface of the cob carries = 4 grains
TO FIND :-
grains would find in the entire cob.
SOLUTION :-
Here, we have to take out thr hypotenuse of L .
So here,
L^2 = r^2 + h^2
_______
L = / r^2 + h^2
____________
= / ( 2.1 )^2 + 20 ^2
______
= / 404. 41 cm
= 20.11 cm
So, the curved surface area of the corn cob =
Now, we can find out the curved surface area by applying the formula pie r l
So here,
22/7 × 2.1 × 20.11 cm^2
= 22 × 0.3 × 20.11
= 132.76 cm^2 = 132.73 cm^2 ( approximately )
Number of grains of corn on 1 cm^2 of the surface of the corn cob = 4
So now, we have to find out the entire curved surface of the cob .
So here,
132.73 × 4 = 530.92 = 531 ( approximately )
So, there would be approximately 531 grains of corn on the cob .
