Step1
To get the density of the cylinder in gcm3. Solve first the volume of the cylinder using the formula:
volume= πr2h
where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder so we have:
volume= π(0.22)2(2.16)=0.23843
Step 2
Since we are required cm3, we convert 3  to  cm3 using the conversion factor 2.54 cm= 1in. So we have:
volume=0.23843×(2.54cm1)3=5.3815cm3
Step 3
To solve for density we use the formula:
density=massvolume
So we have:  
density=41g5.3815cm3
density=7.62gcm2
Result:
7.62gcm2

Step 1:
First, let's find the volume of the cylinder. The volume (V) of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula:
V=πr2h
where r is the radius and h is the height (or length) of the cylinder.
Given that the radius r of the cylinder is 0.22 in and the height h is 2.16 in, we can substitute these values into the formula:
V=π·(0.22in)2·2.16in
Step 2:
Now, let's calculate the volume using a calculator:
Vπ·(0.22)2·2.160.331in3
Next, we convert the volume from cubic inches to cubic centimeters. Since 1 in3 is approximately equal to 16.387 cm3, we can multiply the volume by this conversion factor:
Vcm=0.331in3·16.387cm3/in3
Now, let's calculate the volume in cubic centimeters:
Vcm0.331·16.3875.428cm3
Step 3:
Finally, we can calculate the density using the formula:
Density=MassVolume
Given that the mass of the cylinder is 41 g, we can substitute the values into the formula:
Density=41g5.428cm3
Now, let's calculate the density using a calculator:
Density415.4287.55g/cm3
Therefore, the density of the steel cylinder is approximately 7.55 g/cm3.

Given:
Density=MassVolume
First, let's calculate the volume of the steel cylinder. The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula:
Volume=π×radius2×length
Substituting the given values, we have:
Volume=π×(0.22in)2×(2.16in)
Now we can calculate the density using the given mass and the calculated volume:
Density=41gVolume
Finally, let's convert the density to grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm3) by noting that 1 cm = 0.3937 in:
Density=41gVolume×(1cm0.3937in)3

To find the density of the steel cylinder, we can use the formula:
Density=MassVolume
The mass of the steel cylinder is given as 41 g. To calculate the volume, we can use the formula for the volume of a cylinder:
Volume=π×radius2×length
Substituting the given values, we have:
Volume=π×(0.22in)2×(2.16in)
To convert the volume from cubic inches to cubic centimeters, we need to use the conversion factor: 1 in3 = 16.3871 cm3.
So, the volume in cm3 can be calculated as:
Volume=π×(0.22in)2×(2.16in)×16.3871cm3/in3
Now, we can substitute the values into the formula for density:
Density=41gπ×(0.22in)2×(2.16in)×16.3871cm3/in3
Calculating this expression gives the density of the steel in g/cm3.
