Airbags became widely used in cars in the 1980s and 1990s as a method of making them safer. Although seat belts had become a standard safety feature, injuries still  persisted as the driver and passengers impacted the inside of the car. Airbags are installed so that, in a crash, they will deploy and create a soft barrier between the driver/ passenger and the car and its windows. A car can have multiple airbags, each positioned to protect a specific passenger. The driver's airbag is located in the steering wheel of the car, and when fully inflated can be approximated by a cylinder. If the cylinder has a height of 25 cm and a radius of 28 cm, If the volume of air in the airbag when fully inflated is V cm3 then find V.

In order to solve problems of manoeuvrability and stability, inventor James Dyson inserted a ball into his vacuum cleaner design. The motor could be moved to fit inside the ball, which lowered the center of gravity and increased the stability of the machine. At the same time, the ball allows the machine to be turned around comers with ease. If the motor for a particular vacuum cleaner has a volume of 4200 cm3, if find the radius of the smallest ball that could be used to hold it is an integer r cm then find r(Take π=22/7)

Three-dimensional puzzles are popular toys for adolescents, especially since the Rubik's cube. The wooden puzzle shown here has only 10 pieces but is very difficult to solve. The puzzle comes with the pieces arranged in the shape of a cube, and the aim is to rearrange them to make a square pyramid. If the puzzle contains 9 cm3 of wood, find the dimensions of the pyramid.

The LifeStraw personal water filter removes 99.9999% of waterborne bacteria. It can turn up to 1000 liters of contaminated water into safe drinking water. If the length of the straw is 9 inches and the diameter is 1 inch, If the volume of water that the straw can hold is V inches3 rounded of to the nearest hundredth, then find V. (Take π=22/7)

New Zealand, which is known for its adventurous activities, is the home of "zorbing". This involves rolling down a hill in an inflatable ball. The zorb is actually a sphere within a sphere, with a layer of air in between to help absorb shocks. Zorbs can hold up to three people and zorbers can even choose the "aqua option", where the inner sphere is partly filled with water. This makes for a refreshing ride down the hill on a hot day. If the outer sphere has a  diameter of 3 m and the inner sphere has a  diameter of 2 m, If the volume of the air layer between the inner and outer spheres (The plastic material for each sphere is approximately 0.8 mm thick, which can be ignored in these calculations.) rounded to 3 s.f. is V m3 then find V(Take π=22/7)
