Fulgurites are pieces of glass in the shape of a cylinder produced when lightning strikes sand. A student found a
fulgurite with a height of 21 Inches and a diameter of 6 inches.
Which equation can be used to find V, the volume of the fulgurite in cubic inches?

Respuesta :

Option B) is the correct option that is the volume of the fulgurites is given as

                                V = Π(3)^2 (21) cubic inches

The formula for the volume of cylinder is given as

                           V = Πr^2h       (1)

              Where, r = radius of the cylinder

                            h = height of the cylinder

According to the question we have been given that

    Diameter of the fulgurites, d = 6 inches

    Height of the fulgurites, h = 21 inches

    Thus radius of the fulgurites, r = d/2

                                                        r = 6/2

                                                        r = 3 inches

Putting the required value in equation (1) we get

                  V = Π(3)^2 (21) cubic inches

Hence option B) is the correct option
