A medicine capsule is shaped like a cylinder with two hemispherical ends. The radius is 5 mm and the total length is 14 mm. Find the volume of the capsule (use π = 22/7, answer in mm^3 to two decimals).

Question

Accepted Answer

838.1. Two hemispheres = one sphere = 4/3 π r^3 = (4/3)(22/7)(125) = 11000/21 = 523.81. Cylinder length = 14 - 2(5) = 4 mm; cylinder = π r^2 h = (22/7)(25)(4) = 2200/7 = 314.29. Total = 523.81 + 314.29 = 838.10 mm^3.
