The correct Answer is:
To find the capacity of the medicine capsule, which consists of a cylindrical part and two hemispherical ends, we will calculate the volume of the cylinder and the volume of the two hemispheres separately, and then sum them up. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the dimensions of the capsule**: - Diameter of the cylinder = 0.5 cm - Radius of the cylinder (r) = Diameter / 2 = 0.5 cm / 2 = 0.25 cm - Total length of the capsule = 2 cm 2. **Determine the height of the cylindrical part**: - The capsule has two hemispheres at both ends. The height of each hemisphere is equal to its radius (0.25 cm). - Therefore, the total height occupied by the two hemispheres = 0.25 cm + 0.25 cm = 0.5 cm. - Height of the cylindrical part (h) = Total length - Height of two hemispheres = 2 cm - 0.5 cm = 1.5 cm. 3. **Calculate the volume of the cylindrical part**: - The formula for the volume of a cylinder is given by: \[ V_{\text{cylinder}} = \pi r^2 h \] - Substituting the values: \[ V_{\text{cylinder}} = \pi (0.25)^2 (1.5) = \pi (0.0625) (1.5) = \pi (0.09375) \] 4. **Calculate the volume of one hemisphere**: - The formula for the volume of a hemisphere is given by: \[ V_{\text{hemisphere}} = \frac{2}{3} \pi r^3 \] - Substituting the radius: \[ V_{\text{hemisphere}} = \frac{2}{3} \pi (0.25)^3 = \frac{2}{3} \pi (0.015625) = \frac{0.03125}{3} \pi \] 5. **Calculate the volume of two hemispheres**: - Since there are two hemispheres: \[ V_{\text{two hemispheres}} = 2 \times V_{\text{hemisphere}} = 2 \times \frac{2}{3} \pi (0.25)^3 = \frac{4}{3} \pi (0.015625) = \frac{0.0625}{3} \pi \] 6. **Total volume of the capsule**: - Now, add the volume of the cylinder and the volume of the two hemispheres: \[ V_{\text{total}} = V_{\text{cylinder}} + V_{\text{two hemispheres}} = \pi (0.09375) + \frac{0.0625}{3} \pi \] 7. **Simplifying the total volume**: - To combine these, we can factor out \(\pi\): \[ V_{\text{total}} = \pi \left(0.09375 + \frac{0.0625}{3}\right) \] - Convert \(0.09375\) to a fraction: \[ 0.09375 = \frac{15}{160} = \frac{15}{160} + \frac{0.0625}{3} = \frac{15}{160} + \frac{0.0625 \times 53.33}{160} \approx \frac{15 + 0.02083}{160} \] 8. **Final Calculation**: - Using \(\pi \approx \frac{22}{7}\) for approximation: \[ V_{\text{total}} \approx \frac{22}{7} \left(0.09375 + 0.02083\right) \approx \frac{22}{7} \times 0.11458 \approx 0.36 \text{ cm}^3 \] ### Conclusion: The capacity of the capsule is approximately **0.36 cm³**.
