Answer :
Answer:
3.706 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello
assuming that these measures correspond to the internal measures of the thermos,
we can calculate the volume as, the volume of a cylinder, which is given by
[tex]V=\pi r^{2} h[/tex]
where r is the radius of the base, and h the height
also
Diameter=2r
r=Diameter/2
Step 1
let
h=8 in
base = diameter = 6 inch
r=diameter/2
r=6/2 inch,r=3 inch
Step 2
Put the values into the equation
[tex]V=\pi r^{2} h\\V=\pi (3in)^{2} (8 in)\\V=\pi *72 \ in^{3} \\\\V=72\pi\ in^{3} \\\\[/tex]
Step 3
Now, the unit (cubic inches) is not an usual unit for measuring coffee, let´s convert cubic inches into liters by knowing
1 inch = 2.54 cm
1 litro = 1000 cubic centimeters
[tex]if\ 1\ inch\ = 2.54\ cm\\(1\ inch)^{3} =(2.54\ cm)^{3}\\\\1\ inch^{3}=16.3870\ cm^{3}[/tex]
1 cubic inch = 16.3870 cubic centimeters
[tex]1\ cubic\ inch\ = 16.3870\ cubic\ centimeters\\\\\\72\pi =x?\ cubic\ centimeters\\\\x=\frac{72\pi \cubic \ inch\ \*16.3870 }{1\ cubic\ inch} \\\\x=3706.65\ cubic\ centimeters[/tex]
Step 4
Finally, convert cubic centimeters into liters[tex]1000\ cubic\ centimeters =1\ liter \\\\\\3706.65\ cubic\ centimeters = x?\ liters\ centimeters\\\\x=\frac{3706.65 \cubic \ centimeters\ \*1 liter}{1000 cubic centimeters} \\\\x=3706.65\ cubic\ centimeters\\x=3.706 Liters[/tex]
I can put 3.706 liters in the thermos
Have a good day
