Answers
Volume of Cylinder generated by Rolling a rectangular sheet
Answer: Volume of solid generated that is cylinder is 231 cubic centimeter.
Explanation:
Given that
Dimension of rectangular sheet = 22 x 6 cm
On Rolling rectangular sheet we will get a cylinder.
As sheet is rolled about its shorter side , means shorter side becomes the height of a cylinder generated and longer side becomes circumference of base of cylinder.
So we need to determine the volume of cylinder whoes height = 6 cm and Circumference of the base = 22 cm
as Circumference = 2 π r where r is radius of the base
=> 2 π r = 22 cm
=> 2 x (22/7) x r = 22 cm
=> 44r/7 = 22
=> r = (22 x 7) / 44 = 7/2 cm
Now we have radius of base of cylinder r = (7/2) and height if cylinder = 6 cm
Volume of cylinder = = (22/7) x ( 7/2) x (7/2 ) x 6
= 6468/28
= 231 cubic centimeter
Hence Volume of solid generated that is cylinder is 231 cubic centimeter.
