Answer

$Volume= \pi (\dfrac{36}{5})$ $cm^3$ and $\space Weight =192 \space g$

Work Step by Step

We integrate the integral to calculate the volume as follows: $V= \pi \times \int_{0}^{6} (36-x^2) \dfrac{x^2}{144} dx$ Now, $V= \dfrac{ \pi }{144} [12x^3 - \dfrac{x^{5}}{5}]_{0}^{6}$ or, $Volume= \pi (\dfrac{36}{5})$ We are given that $\space density =8.5 \space g/cm^3$ $\space Weight =\pi (\dfrac{36}{5}) \approx 192 \space g$ So, $Volume= \pi (\dfrac{36}{5})$ $cm^3$ and $\space Weight =192 \space g$
