The maximum volume of the cylinder in exact form is; V_max = 2560π/27
<h3>How to maximize the volume of a cylinder?</h3>
Let us define the variables as:
Radius of cone = r
Radius of cylinder = x
Height of Cone = h
Height of Cylinder = y
The general equation for volume of the cylinder is;
V = πx²y
Taking a strip of both figures and relating x, y, r & h as well as using ratios of similar triangles, we have:
Height of triangle above cylinder/Base of Triangle above cylinder = Height of full triangle/Base of full triangle
This gives;
(h - y)/2x = h/2r
Making y the subject gives us;
h – y = hx/r
y = h – hx/r
y = h(1 – x/r)
Plug in y into our Volume equation:
V(x) = πx²h(1 – x/r)
V(x) = πh(x² - x³/r)
To get maximum volume, find the derivative of the volume and solve for when the derivative equals zero:
V'(x) = πh(2x - 3x²/r)
V'(x) = 0
Thus;
(2x - 3x²/r) = 0
x( 2r – 3x) = 0
Thus;
x = 0 or x = 2r/3
Put x = 2r/3 in our volume equation to find V_max
V_max = πh((2r/3)² – (2r/3)³/r)
V_max = πh(4r²/9 - 8r²/27)
V_max = πh(12r²/27 - 8r²/27)
V_max = 4πhr²/27
Thus, at r = 8 and h = 10, we have;
V_max = 4π(10)8²/27
V_max = 2560π/27
