Answer:
the mass of the solid glass cylinder is approximately 350.67 grams.
Explanation:
The diameter of the cylinder is 3 centimeters, which means that its radius is 1.5 centimeters (half the diameter). The area of the base of the cylinder is the area of a circle, calculated as pi (π) multiplied by the radius squared:
Base area = π x radius^2
Base area = π x (1.5 cm)^2
Base area = 7.07 cm^2 (approximately)
The volume of the cylinder is calculated by multiplying the area of the base by the height:
Cylinder Volume = Base Area x Height
Cylinder volume = 7.07 cm^2 x 31 cm
Cylinder volume = 219.17 cm^3 (approximately)
Now that we know the volume of the cylinder, we can calculate its mass using the density of the glass:
Mass = Density x Volume
Mass = 1.6 g/cm^3 x 219.17 cm^3
Mass = 350.67 grams (approximately)
