Question number 29 you work in the shipping department of an organic food company and need to calculate the net weight of a jar of raspberry preserves. the jar is a cylinder. it has an inside diameter of 1.5 inches and an inside height of 4.75 inches. the raspberry preserves weigh 0.53 ounces per cubic inch. what is the net weight, rounded to the nearest hundredth, of the jar of raspberry preserves

Respuesta :

The net weight of a jar of raspberry preserves will be 4.45 ounces.

The volume of the cylinder can be calculated as the product of the base of the cylinder and the height of cylinder.

The volume of cylinder= base of cylinder * height of the cylinder

volume of cylinder = πd²*h/4

Here, given that

the inside diameter of the cylinder is 1.5 inches.

d= 1.5 inches

the inside height of the cylinder is 4.75 inches.

h= 4.75 inches

putting these above values for calculating the volume of the cylinder

Volume =V = πd²*h/4

⇒ V= π*(1.5)²*4.75/4

⇒V = 8.40 cube inches

Given that the raspberry preserve weighs 0.53 ounces per one cubic.

for one cubic the weight is 0.53 ounces

for 8.40 cubic the weight will be 8.40*0.53= 4.45 ounces

Therefore The net weight of a jar of raspberry preserves will be 4.45 ounces.
