Question 2 Mensuration Exercise 17.1

A wooden pole is 7 m high and 20 cm in diameter. Find its weight if the wood weighs 225 kg per m3.

Answer:

Solution:

The capacity of a cylinder is measured by its volume, which determines how much material it can carry.

Given height of the pole, h = 7 m

Diameter of the pole, d = 20 cm

radius, r = d/2 = 20/2 = 10 cm = 0.1m

Volume of the pole = π r2h

= (22/7)×0.12×7

= 0.22 m3

Weight of wood per m3 = 225 kg

weight of 0.22 m3 wood = 225×0.22 = 49.5 kg

Hence the weight of the wood is 49.5 kg. M L Aggarwal - Understanding ICSE Mathematics - Class 10 chapter Mensuration Question 2 Solution image
