Gravity and Heat
"...star formation begins when part of the interstellar medium--one of the cold, dark clouds... starts to collapse under its own weight. The cloud fragment heats up as it shrinks, and eventually its center becomes hot enough for nuclear burning to begin. At that point, the contraction stops, and a star is born."
Answer:
Option D. 274.75 units²
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Radius (r) = 3.5 units
Height (h) = 9 units
Surface Area (SA) =?
The surface area of the cylinder can be obtained as follow:
SA = 2πr (h + r)
NOTE: Pi(π) = 3.14
SA = 2 × 3.14 × 3.5 × (9 + 3.5)
SA = 21.98 × 12.5
SA = 274.75 units²
Thus, the surface area of the cylinder is 274.75 units²
