Question

The tsa of a hallow cylinder which is open from both side is 4620cm2.area of base ring is 115.5cm2 and height is 7cm.find the thickness of the cylinder

Answer 1

tsa = 2πr(r+h)=4620
tsa = 2πr^2+2πrh=4620
2*115.5+2πrh=4620
231+2πrh=4620
2πrh = 4620-231
2πr*7=4389
2πr=4620/7=627
r=627*7/44
r=99.75cm

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the radii of outer and inner surfaces be R and r.

(I) TSA of hollow cylinder :

TSA = Outer CSA + Inner CSA + 2(Area of circular base)

➳ 4620 = 2πRh + 2πrh + 2π(R² - r²)

➳ 4620 = 2πh(R + r) + 2 × 115.5

➳ 4620 = 2πh(R + r) + 231

➳ 4620 - 231 = 2πh(R + r)

➳ 4389 = 2πh(R + r)

➳ 4389 = 2 × 22/7 × 7 × (R + r)

➳ 4389 = 44 × (R + r)

➳ 4389/44 = (R + r)

➳ 399/4 = (R + r) ...........[Equation (i)]

_____________________

(II) Area of base ring :

Area of base ring = π(R² - r²)

➳ 115.5 = 22/7(R² - r²)

➳ 115.5 × 7 = 22(R² - r²)

➳ 808.5/22 = R² - r²

➳ 8085/22 = R² - r²

➳ 147/4 = (R + r) (R - r).......[Equation (ii)]

____________________

Now, Substituting equation (I) in equation (II) we get,

➳ 147/4 = (R + r) (R - r)

➳ 147/4 = (399/4) (R - r)

➳ (R - r) = 399/147

➳ (R - r) = 7/19

➳ (R - r) = 0.36842 cm

Therefore, the thickness of the cylinder is 0.36842 cm.
