Find the number of metallic circular disc with 1.5 cm
Find the number of metallic circular disc with 1.5 cm base diameter and of height 0.2 cm to be melted to form a right circular cylinder of height 10 cm
and diameter 4.5 cm.
Given that, lots of metallic circular disc to be melted to form a right circular cylinder. Here, a circular disc work as a circular cylinder.
Base diameter of metallic circular disc = 1.5 cm
$\therefore$ Radius of metallic circular disc $=\frac{1.5}{2} \mathrm{~cm}$ $[\because$ diameter $=2 \times$ radius $]$
and heiaht of metallic circular disc $i . e .,=0.2 \mathrm{~cm}$
$\therefore \quad$ Volume of a circular disc $=\pi \times(\text { Radius })^{2} \times$ Height
$=\pi \times\left(\frac{1.5}{2}\right)^{2} \times 0.2$
$=\frac{\pi}{4} \times 1.5 \times 1.5 \times 0.2$
Now, height of a right circular cylinder $(h)=10 \mathrm{~cm}$
and diameter of a right circular cylinder $=4.5 \mathrm{~cm}$
$\Rightarrow$ Radius of a right circular cylinder $(r)=\frac{4.5}{2} \mathrm{~cm}$.
$\therefore \quad$ Volume of right circular cylinder $=\pi r^{2} h$
$=\pi\left(\frac{4.5}{2}\right)^{2} \times 10=\frac{\pi}{4} \times 4.5 \times 4.5 \times 10$
$\therefore$ Number of metallic circular disc $=\frac{\text { Volume of a right circular cylinder }}{\text { Volume of a metallic circular disc }}$
$=\frac{\frac{\pi}{4} \times 4.5 \times 4.5 \times 10}{\frac{\pi}{4} \times 1.5 \times 1.5 \times 0.2}$
$=\frac{3 \times 3 \times 10}{0.2}=\frac{900}{2}=450$
Hence, the required number of metallic circular disc is 450 .
