1.55 diagram 1
A solid right circular cylinder has base radius r\displaystyle r cm and height h\displaystyle h cm, as shown in Figure 1.
The cylinder has a total surface area of 322πcm2\displaystyle 322\pi\,\mathrm{cm}^2 and a volume of Vcm3\displaystyle V\,\mathrm{cm}^3.
(a) Show that
V=πr(161r2).V=\pi r(161-r^2).
(3)
Given that r\displaystyle r can vary,
(b) use calculus to find, to 3 significant figures, the value of r\displaystyle r for which V\displaystyle V is a maximum, justifying that this value of r\displaystyle r gives a maximum value of V\displaystyle V.
(5)
(c) Find, to 3 significant figures, the maximum value of V\displaystyle V.
