Given that the radius and volume of the cylinder are 2.6 cm, and 198 cm³
respectively, the height of the cylinder is approximately 9.3 cm.
How can the height of the cylinder be calculated?
Known parameters;
The shape of the soda can = A right cylinder
Radius of the can, r = 2.6 cm
Volume of the can, V = 198 cm³
Required:
The height of the can
Solution:
The height, h, of the can is found as follows;
V = π·r²·h
Which gives;
[tex]h = \mathbf{ \dfrac{V}{\pi \cdot r^2}}[/tex]
Therefore;
[tex]h = \dfrac{198 \, cm^3}{\pi \times (2.6 \, cm)^2} \approx \mathbf{9.3 \, cm}[/tex]
The height of the cylinder, h ≈ 9.3 cm
