  1. A hollow cylindrical tube 20 cm. long is made of iron and its external and internal diameters are 8 cm. and 6 cm. respectively. The volume (in cubic cm.) of iron used in making the tube is (Use π = 22/7)
    1. 1760
    2. 440
    3. 220
    4. 880
Correct Option: B

Volume of used iron = π(R² – r²)h
where R = 4 cm; r = 3 cm.

=
22
(4² – 3²) × 20
7

=
22
× (4 + 3)(4 – 3) × 20
7

=
22
× 7 × 20 = 440 cu.cm.
