Question 6:
A solid iron pole consists of a cylinder of height 220 cm and base diameter 24 cm, which is surmounted by another cylinder of height 60 cm and radius 8 cm. Find the mass of the pole, given that 1 cm3 of iron has approximately 8 g mass. [Use π = 3.14]
Answer:
From the figure, it can be observed that
Height (h1) of larger cylinder = 220 cm
Radius (r1) of larger cylinder = 24/2 = 12 cm
Height (h2) of smaller cylinder = 60 cm
Radius (r2) of smaller cylinder = 8 cm
Total volume of pole = Volume of larger cylinder + Volume of smaller cylinder
Mass of 1 cm3 iron = 8 g
Mass of 111532.8 cm3 iron = 111532.8 × 8 = 892262.4 g = 892.262 kg
