Answer
(i) Given, curved surface area of cylinder = 4400 cm2.
We know that curved surface area of cylinder = 2πrh.
∴ 2πrh = 4400 …..(i)
Given, circumference of base = 110 cm.
We know that circumference = 2πr.
∴ 2πr = 110 …..(ii)
Dividing equation (i) by (ii),
⇒ h = 40 cm.
Hence, the height of the cylinder = 40 cm.
(ii) We know that circumference = 2πr.
Given, circumference = 110 cm.
∴ 2πr = 110
⇒ = 110
⇒ r = = 17.5 cm.
Volume of cylinder = πr2h.
Putting values we get,
Hence, the volume of the cylinder = 38500 cm3.
