A metallic pipe whose external and internal diameter are 9cmand 7cm, has a length of 2.8m. Find the volume of the metal.
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- External diameter = 9 cm
- Internal diameter = 7 cm
- Height of the pipe = 2.8 m = 280 cm
- Volume of the metal
➔ First we have to find the outer and inner volumes of the metal
➔ Here we know that the pipe is in the form of a cylinder.
➔ Volume of a cylinder is given by,
Volume of a cylinder = π r² h
➔ Substitute the data,
Outer volume of the pipe = 22/7 × 9/2 × 9/2 × 280
Outer volume of the pipe = 11 × 9 × 9 × 20
Outer volume of the pipe = 17820 cm³
➔ Hence outer volume of the pipe is 17280 cm³.
➔ Now we have to find the inner volume of the pipe.
Inner volume of pipe = 22/7 × 7/2 × 7/2 × 280
Inner volume of pipe = 11 × 7 × 140
Inner volume of pipe = 10780
➔ Hence inner volume of the pipe is 10780 cm³.
➔ Now the volume of the pipe is given by,
Volume of the pipe = Outer volume - Inner volume
Volume of the pipe = 17820 - 10780
Volume of the pipe = 7040 cm³
➔ Hence volume of the metal used is 7040 cm³.
