Why would someone need to the know the surface of a cylinder?

What is a real-world situation in which you would find the surface area of a cylinder?

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.

The radius of a cylinder is 8cm and its height is 10cm find the surface are of the cylinder?

i don't know hmm

Why would someone need to know the surface area of a box?

To know how much material is required to make the box.

How do you calculate diameter of hydraulic cylinder to create ton pressure?

The equation Force = pressure x surface of the cylinder Electric power and torque and power you need to know what you want. After obtaining the surface area of the circle diameter cylinder, the cylinder can get.

If a cylinder has a diameter of 6 in what is the height?

In order to find its height, we must know either the volume or the surface area of the cylinder.

How can i find the radius of a cylinder if i don't know the volume?

Oh, dude, if you don't know the volume of the cylinder, you can't find the radius directly. You need at least one more piece of information like the height or surface area to calculate the radius. It's like trying to guess someone's age without any clues - good luck with that!

How do you know when you need a master cylinder?

When your boyfriend has sex with someone else. :(its happens to my best friend

How do you find the the radius of a cylinder if you know the surface area?

You cannot. You need to know the height as well. If you know the height, the surface area, A is given by A = 2*Ï€*r2 + 2*Ï€*r*h where r is the radius and h the height.

How would you find the surface area of a cylinder with circle bored out of it?

Actually, answer 1 is for the volume, not the surface area. Aside from that, there are lots of ways to bore a hole in a cylinder. If it goes from one base (a flat face) to the other (or part of the way) parallel to the axis, answer 1 is correct (for the volume). If it is not parallel to the axis, or if it is bored from the curved surface of the cylinder, it is much more complicated. Assuming, as in answer 1, that the hole goes all the way from one base to the other parallel to the axis, to get the surface area you would add the surface area of the outer cylinder to that of the hole (just the curved surface portion), and then subtract the areas of the circular holes in the two bases, each of which is pi x the radius of the hole squared. I'm assuming you know how to calculate the surface area of a cylinder. This is the area of the curved surface, which is 2 x pi x the radius x the height, plus 2 x the area of each base, which is pi x the radius squared. ========================================================== Use the formula:- Volume of a cylinder = Pi X Radius squared X Length , to find the volume of a solid cylinder. Repeat the same calculation with the same formula, to find the Volume of the cylinder of fresh air within the cylinder . Subtract the fresh air Volume from the Solid Cylinder Volume. That will be your answer . Think about your problem, then it is dead easy.

Find the radius using surface area and height?

FIrst we need to know what the object is? Perhaps you mean a cone or a cylinder?

What is the surface area of a cylinder with a circular base with a radius of 3 cm?

The surface area of the base = Pi x r2 = Pi x 9 cm2 But to calculate the surface area of a cylinder you also need to know its height. The cylindrical surface area will be Pi x 2r x height = (in this case) Pi x 6 x height.

How do you measure the volume of 10m length cylinder?

You must know at least one other dimension, such as diameter or surface area before this can be answered.
