Answer:


h=(24)/(\pi)\approx7.64

Explanation:

we are given that the cube and cylinder have the same volume. we shall use the formulae for volume of cube and cylinder:


V_(cube)=a^3 where a is the length of an edge.


V_(cyl)=\pi r^2 h where r is the radius of the circular base, and h is the height of the cylinder.

first find the volume of the cube:


V_(cube)=6^3=2^3* 3^3.

next, the volume of the cylinder. note that 6 is the diameter, so 3 is the radius.


V_(cyl)=3^2\pi h

now, these two are equal. we have


2^3*3^3=3^2\pi h

dividing both sides by
3^2, we have


2^3* 3=\pi h \implies 24=\pi h

and finally, we have


h=(24)/(\pi)

Answer:

Height= 7.64 cm

Explanation:

The volume
\sf V of a cube is given by the formula
\sf V_{\textsf{cube}} = s^3, where
\sf s is the length of a side of the cube.

The volume
\sf V of a cylinder is given by the formula
\sf V_{\textsf{cylinder}} = \pi r^2 h, where
\sf r is the radius of the base and
\sf h is the height of the cylinder.

Given:

- Length of the cube (
\sf s) = 6 cm

- Diameter of the cylinder (
\sf d) = 6 cm (the radius
\sf r is half of the diameter)

First, find the volume of the cube:


\sf V_{\textsf{cube}} = s^3 = 6^3 = 216 \, \textsf{cm}^3

Now, find the radius of the cylinder (
\sf r):


\sf r = (d)/(2) = (6)/(2) = 3 \, \textsf{cm}

Since the cube and the cylinder have the same volume:


\sf V_{\textsf{cube}} = V_{\textsf{cylinder}}


\sf 216 = \pi \cdot 3^2 \cdot h

Solve for the height (
\sf h) of the cylinder:


\sf h = (216)/(\pi \cdot 3^2)


\sf h = (216)/(\pi \cdot 9)


\sf h = (216)/(28.27433388)


\sf h \approx 7.639437268 \, \textsf{cm}

Therefore, the height of the cylinder is approximately
\sf 7.64 \, \textsf{cm} in the nearest hundredth.
