If the inside diameter of a cylindrical garden hose is 1 inch, what is the length, in inches, of a straight hose that can hold a maximum of 1 gallon of water? (1 gallon = 231 cubic inches)
A. \(231\pi\)
B. \(\frac{231}{\pi}\)
C. \(924\)
D. \(924\pi\)
E. \(\frac{924}{\pi}\)
Explanation:
This is straight forward question,
We know, Volume of cylinder =\( \pi * radius^2 *Height
\)
therefore,
231 = \(\pi * ({\frac{1}{2}})^2 * Height\)
or height (length of the hose) = \(\frac{{231 * 4}}{{\pi}}\)
