Answer:
the total volume is 0.0157 m³.
Explanation:
To calculate the total volume of the four concrete pillars, we need to find the volume of one pillar and then multiply it by four.
The volume of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula:
Volume = π * r^2 * h
Where:
π ≈ 3.14159 (pi, a mathematical constant)
r = radius of the cylinder
h = height of the cylinder
Given:
Diameter of each pillar = 50 cm
Radius (r) = Diameter / 2 = 50 cm / 2 = 25 cm = 0.25 m
Height (h) = 4 cm = 0.04 m
Now we can calculate the volume of one pillar:
Volume of one pillar = π * (0.25 m)^2 * 0.04 m
Calculating the above expression gives us:
Volume of one pillar = 3.14159 * (0.25 m)^2 * 0.04 m
= 3.14159 * 0.0625 m^2 * 0.04 m
= 0.00392699082 m^3
Since we have four pillars, we can multiply the volume of one pillar by four to get the total volume of the four pillars:
Total volume of the four pillars = 4 * 0.00392699082 m^3
≈ 0.01570796328 m^3
