Question

The Acme Company produces metal rods. The largest rod that the Acme company produces is 10 feet long and 2 feet in diameter. How much material (the volume) is required to produce 1 metal rod? Round to the nearest tenth. Use 3.14 for \piπ .

Answer 1

31.4 ft³

Explanation:

Using the relation :

Volume, V = πr²h

Height = 10 feets ; diameter = 2 feets, radius, r = 2 /2 = 1 feet

Volume , V = π * 1^2 * 10

V = 1 * 10 * 3.14

V =31.4 feet³

Hence, the volume of material needed to produce 1 metal rod is 31.4 ft³
