A solid of revolution is a three-dimensional figure that is formed by rotating a two-dimensional shape around an axis. The line around which the slope is rotated is called the axis of revolution.In the above figure, there is a rectangle which when is rotated along the axis becomes a three-dimensional solid which is a cylinder with a height of 9 units and a base radius of 4 units. Find the surface area and the volume of this solid. Take the value of \pi = 3.14

Density is the amount of matter that an object has in a given unit of volume and is calculated by the formula density = \frac{mass}{volume}. The height of the tree trunk is 20 meters and base diameter is 0.5 meters. The wood has a density of 380 kilograms per cubic meter. Find the mass of the trunk to the nearest kilogram. Hint: The tree is in the shape of a cylinder, so find the volume and calculate mass using the formula given. Take the value of \pi = 3.14 and round off the answer to the nearest tenth.

A playground ball with a 16-inch diameter has a rubber coating on its surface. Does a ball with a diameter which is \frac{1}{4} times the diameter of the given ball need \frac{1}{4} times the rubber coating? Hint: the surface area of a ball is the same as that of a sphere which is 4\pi{r}{^2} , so we need to find the surface area of the smaller ball and divide it with the surface area of the bigger ball to get the required answer.

The population density of a city, country or state is a measure of how many people live in a given area. It is usually given in square miles and it can be calculated by using the formula population density = \frac {\text{number of people}}{\text{area of land}} . A circular region with a 4-mile radius has a population density of 6366 people per square mile. Find the number of people who live in that region.
