A pen stand made of wood is in the shape of a cuboid with four conical depressions to hold pens. The dimensions of the cuboid are 15 cm by 10 cm by 3.5 cm. The radius of each of the depressions is 0.5 cm and the depth is 1.4 cm. Find the volume of wood in the entire stand. |

Answer» Given :-
To Find :-
Solution :- As we know that,
=> Volume of the cuboid = 15 × 10 × 3.5 => Volume of the cuboid = 525 cm³___________________Here, depressions are like cones and we know,
=> Given, radius (r) = 0.5 CM and depth (h) = 1.4 cm => ∴ Volume of 4 cones = 4x(⅓)πr²h => Volume of 4 cones = 1.46 cm³ .=> Now, volume of wood = Volume of cuboid - Volume of 4 cones. => 525- 1.46 cm³ => 523.54 cm³ . Thus, the volume of wood in the entire stand is 523.54 cm³. |
