Question

A large grain silo is to be constructed in the shape of a circular cylinder

Answer 1

The total capacity of the cylindrical silo, that is, it's volume, is of about 56,549 cubic feet.

What is the volume of a cylinder?

The volume of a cylinder of radius r and height h is given by:

$V = \pi r^2h$.

In this problem, we have that r = 0.5d = 15 ft, h = 80 ft, hence the volume is given by:

$V = \pi r^2h$

$V = \pi 15^2 \times 80$

V = 56,549 ft³.
