A hollow iron pipe is 21 cm long and its external diameter is 8 cm. If the thickness of the pipe is 1 cm and iron weighs 8 g/cm3, then the weight of the pipe is:
Answer: Option
Explanation:
External radius = 4 cm,
Internal radius = 3 cm.

Please anyone say why we are taking radius instead of diameter?

Volume = base area * height.
For calculating, base area of the given hollow cylinder, we should remove the area containing thickness from the original.
So (pi * 4^2) - (pi*3^2) = pi* (4^2 - 3^2) = Effective base area.

How did you find out the DENSITY = 8? Please explain.

@Rohan.
It's given in the question that iron weighs 8 g/cm3. It's nothing but a density.

There is a formula for hollow sphere 3.14 (R^2-r^2)h.

Why 4 square minus 3 square equals to 7 * 1.
