Question 48

A solid right circular cylinder has radius r r\,r cm and height h h\,h cm. The total surface area of the cylinder is 800 cm2^22.

a.

Show that the volume, V V\,V cm3^33, of the cylinder is given by

V=400r−πr3V = 400r - \pi r^3V=400r−πr3

[3]
b.

Use calculus to find the maximum value of VVV, giving your answer to the nearest cm3^33.

[3]
c.

Justify that the value of V V\,V you have found is a maximum.
