Question

To the nearest 100th feet, find the volume of a hollow cylinder having inner radius =150 in, outer radius= 170 in and the height = 220 in

Answer 1

R1 = 150 in = 12.5 ft

R2 = 170 in = 14.167 ft

H = 220 in = 18.333 ft

Volume of solid cylinder = Pi * R^2 * H

So the volume of a hollow cylinder must be V = Pi * H * (R2^2 - R1^2)

V = 3.142 * 18.33 * (14.17^2 - 12.5^2) = 2565 ft^3
