Q6:
A solid iron pole consists of a cylinder of height $220$ cm and base diameter $24$ cm, which is surmounted by another cylinder of height $60$ cm and radius $8$ cm. Find the mass of the pole, given that $1$ cm$^3$ of iron has approximately $8$g mass. (Use $\pi = 3.14$)
Solution :
Given:
A solid iron pole composed of two cylinders:
- Cylinder 1 (Base): Height ($h_1$) = $220$ cm, Diameter ($d_1$) = $24$ cm.
- Cylinder 2 (Top): Height ($h_2$) = $60$ cm, Radius ($r_2$) = $8$ cm.
- Density of iron: $1$ cm$^3$ = $8$ g.
- Constant: $\pi = 3.14$.
To Find:
The total mass of the iron pole in grams (or kilograms).
Step 1: Determine the dimensions of the cylinders.
For the base cylinder (Cylinder 1):
Radius ($r_1$) = $\frac{\text{Diameter}}{2} = \frac{24 \text{ cm}}{2} = 12$ cm.
Height ($h_1$) = $220$ cm.
For the top cylinder (Cylinder 2):
Radius ($r_2$) = $8$ cm.
Height ($h_2$) = $60$ cm.
Step 2: Calculate the volume of the pole.
The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula: $V = \pi r^2 h$.
Total Volume ($V_{total}$) = Volume of Cylinder 1 + Volume of Cylinder 2
$V_{total} = (\pi \cdot r_1^2 \cdot h_1) + (\pi \cdot r_2^2 \cdot h_2)$
$V_{total} = \pi [ (12)^2 \cdot 220 + (8)^2 \cdot 60 ]$
$V_{total} = 3.14 [ (144 \cdot 220) + (64 \cdot 60) ]$
$V_{total} = 3.14 [ 31680 + 3840 ]$
$V_{total} = 3.14 [ 35520 ]$
$V_{total} = 111532.8$ cm$^3$.
Step 3: Calculate the mass of the pole.
Given that $1$ cm$^3$ of iron has a mass of $8$ g.
Total Mass = $V_{total} \times 8$ g/cm$^3$
Total Mass = $111532.8 \times 8$
Total Mass = $892262.4$ g.
Step 4: Convert to kilograms (optional but standard).
Since $1000$ g = $1$ kg:
Total Mass = $\frac{892262.4}{1000} = 892.2624$ kg.
Final Answer: The mass of the pole is 892262.4 g or approximately 892.26 kg.
