Question

A cylindrical water tank has a diameter of 5.3 meters and a height of 9 meters. What is the maximum volume that the water tank can hold? Use ϖ to approximate the volume to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

Answer:

198.56$m^{3$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of a cylinder, you need to find the area of the cross-section (one of the circles on the side) and multiply it by the length.

Area of the circle = π$r^{2}$ = π x (5.3/2) x (5.3/2) = π x 2.65 x 2.65 = 7.0225π

Volume of the cylinder = 7.0225π x 9 = 63.2025π = 198.56$m^{3$
