A path 2 m wide surrounds a circular pond of diameter 40 m. How many cubic metres of gravel are required to grave the path to a depth of 20 cm?
Answers
Answer:
52.8 m³ of gravel are required to grave the path of 20 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Diameter of the circular pond = 40 m
Radius of the pond , r = d/2 = 20m/2 = 10m
Thickness = 2m
Depth, h = 20 cm = 20/100 = 0.20 m
[1 cm = 1/100 m]
The circular path can be viewed as a hollow cylinder.
Thickness = External radius - Internal radius
Thickness = R - r
2 = R - 20
2 + 20 = R
R = 22 m
Volume of the hollow cylinder = π(R² - r²)×h
= π(22² −20² )× 0.20
= 22/7 ( 484 - 400) × 0.2
= 22/7 × 84 × 0.2
= 22 × 12 × 0.2
= 52.8 m³
Hence, 52.8 m³ of gravel are required to grave the path.

Here is your answer
Here Given,
Diameter of the circular pond=40 m
Radius of the pond= 20m/2 =10m (r=d/2)
Thickness=2m
We know that,
1cm =0.01m
10cm=10/100 m =0.10m
Since the whole view of the pond looks like a hollow cylinder.
So,
Thickness of (t) =R-r
2=R-20
R=22m
Volume of the hollow cylinder=∏(R2−r2)×h
∏(222−202)×0.10
=52.77m³
Volume of the cylinder is 52.77m³.
Since it is a hollow cylinder the volume of the cylinder indicates the required amount of sand needed to spread across to a depth of 20 m.
