Find the volume of a cylinder whose radius is one-third the radius of a circle of area 1386 cm², and height is twice its radius.
Question

Find the volume of a cylinder whose radius is one-third the radius of a circle of area 1386 cm², and height is twice its radius.

A.

3246 cm³

B.

2584 cm³

C.

2156 cm³

D.

3562 cm³

Correct option is C

Given:

Area of the circle = 1386 cm².

Let the radius of the circle be r .

Formula Used:

Area of circle = πr2\pi r^2​​

Volume of cylinder =πr2h \pi r^2 h​​

Solution:

Area of circle =πr2 \pi r^2​​

Substituting the value of the area:

1386 = πr2\pi r^2​​

Solving for r :

r =1386π=21 cm \sqrt{\frac{1386}{\pi}} = 21 \, \text{cm}​​

Now, the radius of the cylinder is one-third of the radius of the circle:

Radius of cylinder =213=7 cm \frac{21}{3} = 7 \, \text{cm}​​

The height of the cylinder is twice its radius:

Height of cylinder = 2×7=14 cm2 \times 7 = 14 \, \text{cm}​​

The formula for the volume of the cylinder is:

Volume =πr2h \pi r^2 h​​

Substituting the values:

Volume = π×72×14=2156 cm3\pi \times 7^2 \times 14 = 2156 \, \text{cm}^3​​

Thus, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 2156 cm³.
