Description, how many faces, edges and vertices are there in a hollow cylinder
A hollow cylinder or tube is a cylinder with a smaller cylinder removed from its center, leaving a wall of uniform thickness. It is defined by the outer radius R, the inner radius r and the height h.
Examples of a hollow cylinder
You can find many hollow-cylinder-shaped objects: a pipe or tube, a cardboard paper roll, a ring, a thick washer or a duct. Can you think of any others? Leave us a comment in the box at the bottom of the page.
Formula for the volume of a hollow cylinder
To calculate the volume of a hollow cylinder you subtract the volume of the inner hole from that of the outer cylinder: π times the height times (R² − r²). You can also use the online tool to calculate the volume automatically.
