Let's solve this problem step-by-step.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "**1.a) Deduce the Total Surface Area of a Closed Cylinder**\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "* **Area of the Top and Bottom Circles:** Each circle has an area of πR². Since there are two circles (top and bottom), their combined area is 2πR².
\n" ); document.write( "* **Lateral Surface Area (Curved Surface):** Imagine unrolling the side of the cylinder. This forms a rectangle with height H and width equal to the circumference of the base (2πR). Therefore, the lateral surface area is 2πRH.
\n" ); document.write( "* **Total Surface Area (S):** To find the total surface area, add the areas of the top, bottom, and lateral surfaces:
\n" ); document.write( " * S = 2πR² + 2πRH
\n" ); document.write( " * S = 2πR(R + H)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "**1.b) Find the Volume of the Cylinder**\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "* **Volume Formula:** The volume (V) of a cylinder is given by V = πR²H.
\n" ); document.write( "* **Given Values:** H = 15.0 m and R = 5.0 m.
\n" ); document.write( "* **Calculation:**
\n" ); document.write( " * V = π(5.0 m)²(15.0 m)
\n" ); document.write( " * V = π(25 m²)(15.0 m)
\n" ); document.write( " * V = 375π m³\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "**1.c) Calculate the Amount of Water the Tank Can Hold**\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The amount of water the tank can hold is equal to its volume.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "* **Answer:** The tank can hold 375π m³ of water.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "**1.d) Calculate the Height of a Cuboid Tank with the Same Capacity**\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "* **Cuboid Volume Formula:** The volume of a cuboid is given by V = Area of base × height.
\n" ); document.write( "* **Given Information:**
\n" ); document.write( " * Volume of the cuboid = Volume of the cylinder = 375π m³
\n" ); document.write( " * Cross-sectional area (base area) of the cuboid = 25 m²
\n" ); document.write( "* **Calculation:**
\n" ); document.write( " * 375π m³ = 25 m² × h
\n" ); document.write( " * h = (375π m³) / (25 m²)
\n" ); document.write( " * h = 15π m\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "**Answers:**\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a) S = 2πR(R + H)
\n" ); document.write( "b) V = 375π m³
\n" ); document.write( "c) 375π m³
\n" ); document.write( "d) h = 15π m
