Answer:
about 3.08 L
Explanation:
You want the number of litres in the volume of a cylindrical can 14 cm in diameter and 20 cm high.
Liters
A litre is a cubic decimeter, 1000 cubic centimeters. As such, it is convenient to perform the volume calculation using the dimensions in decimeters:
- 14 cm = 1.4 dm . . . . . . diameter
- 20 cm = 2.0 dm . . . . . height
Volume
The volume of the cylinder is given by the formula ...
V = (π/4)d²h . . . . . . . where d is the diameter and h is the height
V = (π/4)(1.4 dm)²(2.0 dm) ≈ 3.079 dm³ ≈ 3.08 L
The cylindrical can will hold about 3.08 litres.
