Weight of the cylinder

Let Us Learn About Weight of the cylinder

Introduction to Weight of the cylinder:

Cylinder is the three dimensional figure. Weight of the cylinder is same as the volume of the cylinder. The formula to find the weight of the cylinder is pi * radius2 * height. Height is the total height of the cylinder and radius is the radius of the circular face which is at the bottom and top of the cylinder.


Some basic concepts of a Cylinder:


A cylinder is a basic geometric shapes which is curvilinear.

It has two congruent and parallel bases and is a three-dimensional geometric figure that. Its bases are circles rather than polygons.


The cylinder is similar to a prism, it has two faces, zero vertices, and zero edges

The line formed by the centers of the bases of a cylinder, which coincides with the Altitude of the cylinder.

Any solid which is enclosed within the surfaces and two planes perpendicular to the axis is called a cylinder.

In the figure, h = the height and r = the radius of the circular base.


Altitude:



Altitude is the height of the cylinder measured between the two bases.
