By definition, the volume of the cylinder is given by:
[tex]V = \pi * r ^ 2 * h
[/tex]
Where,
r: cylinder radius
h: cylinder height
For 60 -foot-high tree trunk with a radius of 2.2 feet:
[tex]V1 = \pi * (2.2) ^ 2 * (60)
V1 = 912.3[/tex]
For 50 -foot-high tree trunk with a radius of 2.5 feet
[tex]V2 = \pi * (2.5) ^ 2 * (50)
V2 = 981.7[/tex]
We observed that:
[tex]V2\ \textgreater \ V1
[/tex]
Answer:
there is more wood in:
50 -foot-high tree trunk with a radius of 2.5 feet
