A hollow garden roller, $63\ cm$ wide with a girth of $440\ cm$, is made of $4\ cm$ thick iron. Find the volume of the iron.
Given:
A hollow garden roller, $63\ cm$ wide with a girth of $440\ cm$, is made of $4\ cm$ thick iron.
To do:
We have to find the volume of the iron.
Solution:
Width of hollow cylinder $(w) = 63\ cm$
Girth $= 440\ cm$
This implies,
Radius $r=\frac{\text { Perimeter }}{2 \pi}$
$=\frac{440 \times 7}{2 \times 22}$
$=70 \mathrm{~cm}$
Thickness of iron $=4 \mathrm{~cm}$
Therefore,
Inner radius $=70-4$
$=66 \mathrm{~cm}$
Volume of the iron $=\pi h (\mathrm{R}^{2}-r^{2})$
$=\frac{22}{7} \times 63 \times(70^{2}-66^{2})$
$=198(70+66)(70-66)$
$=198 \times 136 \times 4$
$=107712 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}$
The volume of the iron is $107712 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}$.
