You would need to know the surface area of a cylinder if you are a factory worker at Pepsi. You would need to know the dimensions of the label, so it will fit on the can.

How would you find the surface area of a cylinder with a cylinder bored out of it?
if the cylinder is on the inside, it would not affect the surface area. otherwise, subtract the part of the inside cylinder that touches the outside from the cylinder
What is the total area of a cylinder with a height of 5 and radius of 2?
The volume of this cylinder would be 62.857142857142804 cubic units. The surface area of this cylinder would be 87.96459430051421 square units.
What is the surface area of a cylinder with a radius of 5 and a height of 12?
The formula for surface area of a cylinder is (2pi * r^2) + (2pi * r * h). Substituting your values in, the surface area would be 170pi.
What shape would you see if you opened out the curved surface of a cylinder?
You will see a rectangle
What is the surface area of a cylinder whose radius is 5 and height is 10?
The surface area of a cylinder is 2*pi*radius*height. In this case it would be 2*pi*5*10 = 314.16

On what part of a cylinder would you find a soup can label?
On the lateral surface.

Can a cone and a cylinder have the same surface area?
Of course they can. The cone would have to be taller or have a wider base than the cylinder, but they could very easily have the same surface area. A cone and a fish can have the same surface area.
What is the curve of the top surface where the water is in a graduated cylinder called?
that would be the meniscus
What shape would you see if you opened out the curved surface of a cylinder?
You will see a rectangle
Why would someone need to the know the surface of a cylinder?
Imagine you have to paint poles. Perhaps light poles or any other kind and you need to know how much pain to use. The surface area of the cylinder would tell you that.
Would decreasing the height of a cylinder by half have the same effect on the surface area as decreasing the radius by half?
No. The curved surface of the cylinders would be the same but the areas of the circular discs at the two ends of the cylinder would be unchanged in the first case but quartered in the second.
What is the surface area of a cylinder whose radius is 5 and height is 10?
The surface area of a cylinder is 2*pi*radius*height. In this case it would be 2*pi*5*10 = 314.16
What is the surface area of a cylinder with a radius of 5 meters and a height of 4 meters?
The circumference of that cylinder would be 31.4156 meters, and with a height of 4 meters, the outside surface of the sides would be 125.66 square meters. Does a cylinder have both an inside and outside surface? There is no thickness at all to the sides. Maybe it needs to be doubled, to be 251.32 square meters so we get both inside and outside surface, but I think not. A cylindrical *prism* would have a top and bottom, each having a surface of 78.54 square meters, for a total of 282.74 square meters.
A sphere with a ratio of surface area to volume equal to 0.15m-1 a right circular cylinder with a ratio of surface area to volume equal to 2.2m-1?
The rate of diffusion would be faster for the right cylinder.
