What is the volume of the item described?


A capsule consisting of a cylinder of radius 3 mm and height 6 mm with a hemisphere on each end of radius 3 mm.


Select the exact answer in terms of ​ π ​ and the approximate answer rounded to the nearest whole number.


283 mm³


81 π mm³


90 π mm³


254 mm³


​ 54 π mm³


170 mm³

Verified Answer :

The capsule describe consists of 2 hemispheres (same) and 1 cylinder. We need to sum up the volume of the cylinder and the 2 same hemispheres.

  • Volume of Cylinder:

We are given the radius of the cylinder as 3 and the height as 6. The formula for volume of cylinder is \(V=\pi r^{2} h\). Plugging in 3 for r and 6 for h gives us,

\(V=\pi (3)^{2} (6)=54\pi\).


  • Volume of Hemisphere(s):

We are given the radius is 3 for the hemisphere. The formula for volume of a hemisphere is half of the volume of a sphere. The formula for hemisphere is shown below.

\(V=\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}} {2}\). Plugging in 3 for r gives us,

\(V=\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi (3)^{3}} {2}\)

\(V=\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi*27}{2} \\=\frac{36\pi}{2}\\=18\pi\)

Now, since we have 2 same hemispheres, we multiply this answer by 2 to get total volume of the 2 hemispheres.

\(18\pi * 2= 36\pi\).


  • Total volume of the capsule:

\(54\pi + 36\pi  = 90\pi\)


In decimal, taking 3.14 as \(\pi\), it is \(90*3.14=282.6\)

Rounding to the nearest whole number gives us 283 millimeters squared.


ANSWER: Volume = \(90\pi mm^{3}\) and \(283  mm^{3}\)
