Answer:

a. External radius is 0.5 m.

b. Internal radius is 0.45 m.

c. Volume of concrete necessary to make one pipe is 0.37 [tex]m^{3}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

a. It can be observed that the diameter of the pipe is 1 m.

External radius = [tex]\frac{diameter}{2}[/tex]

          = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

          = 0.5

External radius = 0.5 m

b. Internal radius of the pipe can be determined by;

Internal radius = [tex]\frac{internal diameter}{2}[/tex]

But,

Internal diameter = 1 m - (2 x 0.05 m)

                      = 1 m - 0.10 m

                      = 0.9 m

Internal diameter = 0.9 m

So that,

Internal radius = [tex]\frac{0.9}{2}[/tex]

                        = 0.45

Internal radius = 0.45 m

c. Volume of concrete required = [tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r_{e} ^{2}[/tex]h - [tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r_{i} ^{2}[/tex]h

where [tex]r_{e}[/tex] is the external radius, and [tex]r_{i}[/tex] is the internal radius.

Volume of concrete required = [[tex]\frac{22}{7}[/tex] x [tex](0.5)^{2}[/tex] x 2.5] - [[tex]\frac{22}{7}[/tex] x [tex](0.45)^{2}[/tex] x 2.5]

                                                = 1.9643 - 1.5911

                                                = 0.3732

The volume of concrete necessary to make one pipe is 0.37 [tex]m^{3}[/tex].
