A hemispherical tank is made up of an iron sheet 1 cm thick. If the inner radius is 1 m, then find the volume of the iron used to make the tank.

Solution

Inner radius (r) = 1 m Thickness of iron sheet = 1 cm = 0.01 m
∴ Outer radius (R) = Inner radius (r) + Thickness of iron sheet = 1 m + 0.01 m = 1.01 m
∴ Volume of the iron used to make the tank
equals 2 over 3 πr cubed left parenthesis straight R cubed minus straight r cubed right parenthesis
