volume_mute
A cylinder has a circular base with a radius of \(4\text{ cm}\) and a height of \(10\text{ cm}\). Calculate its volume in cubic centimeters. (Use \(\pi \approx 3.14\) and round your final answer to the nearest tenth).
Correct Answer
502.4 cm³
Explanation
The volume of a cylinder is found using the formula \(V = \pi r^2 h\). Given \(r = 4\text{ cm}\) and \(h = 10\text{ cm}\):
\[ V = 3.14 \times (4)^2 \times 10 \]
\[ V = 3.14 \times 16 \times 10 = 502.4\text{ cm}^3 \]
