The radius of can is 2 inches
Solution:
Given that, Can has a volume of 62.8 cubic inches
Height of can is 5 inches
To find: Radius of can
The can is of shape cylinder
The volume of a cylinder can be found using the formula:
[tex]V = \pi {r}^{2} h[/tex]
Where, "r" is the radius and "h" is the height of cylinder
Substituting the values we get,
[tex]62.8 = 3.14 \times r^2 \times 5\\\\62.8 = r^2 \times 15.7\\\\r^2 = \frac{62.8}{15.7}\\\\r^2 = 4\\\\\text{Take square root on both sides }\\\\r = 2[/tex]
Thus the radius of can is 2 inches
