Question 5/12
Select the correct answer for the volume of a cylinder when:
$D=4$ and $H=7$. Use $\mathrm{pi}=3.14$
A 351.68
B $\quad 43.96$
C $\quad 87.92$
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Identify the formula for the volume of a cylinder
The volume \( V \) of a cylinder is given by the formula:
\[
V = \pi r^2 h
\]
where \( r \) is the radius and \( h \) is the height.
Step 2: Determine the radius from the diameter
Given the diameter \( D = 4 \), the radius \( r \) is half of the diameter:
\[
r = \frac{D}{2} = \frac{4}{2} = 2
\]
Step 3: Substitute the values into the formula
Substitute \( r = 2 \), \( h = 7 \), and \( \pi = 3.14 \) into the volume formula:
\[
V = 3.14 \times (2)^2 \times 7
\]
Step 4: Calculate the volume
First, calculate \( (2)^2 \):
\[
(2)^2 = 4
\]
Then multiply by \( 3.14 \) and \( 7 \):
\[
V = 3.14 \times 4 \times 7 = 87.92
\]
Step 5: Match the result with the given options
The calculated volume \( V = 87.92 \) matches option C.
