Question: The external diameter of a steel pipe is 5 cm and its thickness is 5 mm. If the length of the pipe is 14 cm. What is the volume of steel in the pipe?
Options:

C) 66 cm
D) 22 cm
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
- External radius (R) $ =\frac{5}{2}=2.5cm $
Internal radius $ (r)=(2.5-0.5)cm=2cm $
Volume of the steel $ =\pi (R^{2}-r^{2})\times h $
$ =\frac{22}{7}(R+r)(R-r)\times h $
$ =\frac{22}{7}\times 4.5\times 0.5\times 14=99cm^{2} $
