30 circular plates, each of radius 14 cm and thickness 3cm are placed one above the another to form a cylindrical solid. Find volume of the cylinder so formed.
Answer :
It is given that 30 circular plates are placed one above the other to form a cylindrical solid.
So we can see that the height of this cylindrical solid = total thickness of 30 circular plates placed one over the other
Given, thickness of one circular plate = 3 cm
Thickness of 30 circular plates
Now, radius of circular plate, r = 14 cm
We know that
Volume of the cylinder so formed will be equal to
Where r is its radius and h is the height. So, putting the above calculated values:
Volume of the cylinder
Hence, the volume of the cylindrical solid is
