Question

a farmer bought cylindrical bales of Lucerne at a price of R350/bale for his herd of 1500 dairy cows. iii) iii. Determine the approximate space required to store the bales: If the bale has a diameter of 1.5m and a height of 2.6m.

Answer 1

The approximate space required to store the bales is 4.6 cubic meters if the bale has a diameter of 1.5 m and a height of 2.6 m.

What is a cylinder?

In geometry, it is defined as the three-dimensional shape having two circular shapes at a distance called the height of the cylinder.

We know the volume of the cylinder is given by:

$\rm V = \pi r^2 h$

We know the radius will be half of the diameter:

r = 1.5/2 = 0.75 m

h = 2.6 m

V = π(0.75)²(2.6)

V = 4.59 ≈ 4.6 cubic meters

Thus, the approximate space required to store the bales is 4.6 cubic meters if the bale has a diameter of 1.5 m and a height of 2.6 m.
