A cylinder is 650mm diameter and 1400mm high. How many litres of water will it hold? TIA
Wassup? Is Google down again? This http://grapevine.abe.msstate.edu/~fto/tools/vol/cylinder.html gives the answer as 40Db.
Assuming that the diameter is the inside diameter of your cylinder , 464.6 Area of the base = Pi * Radius squared Volume = area of the base * height. If you change the measurements to centimetres instead of millimetres then you can divide your result by 1000 to get the result in litres Pi = 3.14159265394 etc -- Alex "I laugh in the face of danger" "Then I hide until it goes away" www.drzoidberg.co.uk www.upce.org.uk
You used the diameter instead of the radius so your answer is out by a factor of 4 -- Alex "I laugh in the face of danger" "Then I hide until it goes away" www.drzoidberg.co.uk www.upce.org.uk
Pi x radius squared x height Work it out yourself you pikey cnut ;-) And don't forget to use the INNER diameter and height, unless you have developed molecule-thick cylinder walls...
"Cane" just less than half a litre or for the pedants 0.4643275 litres -- Donegal Paul Lambretta Li186 - crashed and bashed Vespa T5 Millenium - Wifey's (technically) www.thepilgrimssc.co.uk www.a4c.co.uk - What are YOU doing?
Are you mad? 1 litre would be a cube 10cm by 10cm by 10cm. If we were talking about a square-based tube, it'd be 65cm by 65cm by 140cm which is just a little more than half a litre, so a cylinder won'tbe that much less. Check your units, sir!
pi * diameter * height 22/7 * 0.65 * 1.4 2.86 litres -- jeremy ['75 RD250A ] | ['02 Fazer 600 in blue] _______________________________________ jeremy at hireserve dot com
Of course I meant to say pi * radius*radius * height 22/7 * 0.65 * 0.65 * 1.4 -- jeremy ['75 RD250A ] | ['02 Fazer 600 in blue] _______________________________________ jeremy at hireserve dot com
