A powder tin has a square base with side 8 cm and height 13 cm. Another is cylindrical with the radius of its base 7 cm and its height 15 cm.
Find the difference in their capacities.
A square piece of paper of side 22 cm is rolled to form a cylinder. Find the volume of the cylinder.
Depth of the wall (h) = 10 m Volume of the earth dug out = Volume of the well = π r2h = π(5)2(10) = 250π m3 Radius of the well with embankment (R)
= 5 + 5 = 10 m π Area of the embankment
= Area of the well with embankment
– Area of the well without embankment = πR2 – πr2 = π(R + r) (R – r)
= π(10 + 5) (10 – 5)
= 75π m2
∴ Height of the embankment
