Question

The radii of the ends of a bucket of height 24 cm are 15 cm and 5 cm. Find its capacity. (Take π = 22/7)

Answer 1

Height of a bucket = 24 cm

                         R= 15cm

                         r = 5cm

Therefore,

Capacity of the bucket

`=(pih)/3[h^2 + Rr + r^2]`

`=22/7 xx 24 /3 xx [(15)^2 + 15 xx 5 + (5)^2]`

`=8171. 42 cm^3`
