The sidewall of a cylindrical tank of radius 30 cm and height of 1 m should be lined with a 4 cm thick layer of concrete.
The sidewall of a cylindrical tank of radius 30 cm and height of 1 m should be lined with a 4 cm thick layer of concrete.
Calculate the volume of the cylinder
Answer: What is approximately the amount of concrete required?
Volume of the tank: "V_1=\\pi r^2h=\\pi*0.3^2*1=0.09\\pi \\;m^3."
Volume of the tank with concrete: "V_2=\\pi (r+0.04)^2h=\\pi*0.34^2*1=0.1156\\pi\\;m^3" .
Volume of the concrete: "V=V_2-V_1=0.1156\\pi-0.09\\pi=0.0256\\pi\\;m^3\\approx 0.08\\;m^3."
