Answer:
The volume of the cavity is 0.013m^3
Explanation:
To find the volume of the cavity, the major parameter missing is the diameter of the cavity itself. we can obtain this using the following steps:
Step one:
Obtain the volume of the cylinder by dividing the mass of the cylinder by the density.
Volume of the cylinder = 2.1 / 11.053 =0.19
Step two:
From the volume of the cylinder, we can get the radius of the cylinder.
Step three:
From the cross-sectional area, we can obtain the radius of the cavity.
Let the radius of the cavity be = r, while the radius of the cylinder be = R
CSA of cavity =
Step Four:
calculate the volume of the cavity using volume =
Recall that the cavity has the same height as the original cylinder
