A solid cylinder of radius r and height h

Question:

A solid cylinder of radius r and height h is placed over other cylinder of same height and radius. The total surface area of the shape so formed is 4πrh +

4πr2.

Solution:

False

Since, the total surface area of cylinder of radius, rand height, h = 2πrh + 2πrWhen one cylinder is placed over the other cylinder of same height

and radius,

then height of the new cylinder = 2 h

and radius of the new cylinder = r

∴ Total surface area of the new cylinder = 2πr(2h) + 2πr2 = 4πrh + 2πr2
