Is there more wood in a 60​-foot-high tree trunk with a radius of 2.2 feet or in a 50​-foot-high tree trunk with a radius of 2.6 ​feet? Assume that the trees can be regarded as right circular cylinders.

Answer:

V₂=1061.85 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine where more wood is found, just find the volume of each log and see which one has the largest volume

knowing that the volume of a straight cylinder is

V=πR²h, where R=radius and h=height

[tex]V_{1}=\pi (2.2)^{2}60= 912.31ft^{3}\\V_{2}=\pi (2.6)^{2}50= 1061.85ft^{3}[/tex]

As we can observe

V₂>V₁
