Answer:
Explanation:
In this type of question, we need to subtract external radius and internal radius to get the answer using the volume formula as the pipe is hollow. Oh! line become a bit complicated, sorry for that, lets solve it.
External radius = 4 cm
Internal radius = 3 cm [because thickness of pipe is 1 cm]
\begin{aligned}
\text{Volume of iron =}\pi r^2h\\
= \frac{22}{7}*[4^2 - 3^2]*21 cm^3\\
= \frac{22}{7}*1*21 cm^3\\
= 462 cm^3 \\
\end{aligned}
Weight of iron = 462*8 = 3696 gm
= 3.696 kg
