A cylindrical slug of copper has a diameter of 68.3 mm and a height of 0.120 m. What is the volume of the cylinder of copper in cm³? (cylinder volume: V = pr²h)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The volume of a cylinder is given by V = πr²h, where r is the radius and h is the height. The diameter is given as 68.3 mm, which is 6.83 cm. The radius is half of the diameter, so r = 3.415 cm. The height is given as 0.120 m, which is 12 cm. Plugging these values into the equation, we get V = π(3.415 cm)²(12 cm) = 440.2 cm³.
