Question

A circular pan has a diameter of 14 cm and a height of 17 cm how much water will it take to fill the pan

Answer 1

It'll take 2616.946 cm³ to fill the pan.

Explanation:

In order to calculate how much water it will take to fill the pan we need to calculate it's volume. Since the bottom is circular, then the pan have a cylinder format and it's volume can be calculated by:

volume = pi*r²*h

The radius of the circle is the diameter divided by two.

volume = pi*(14/2)²*17

volume = pi*(7)²*17

volume = pi*49*17

volume = 2616.946 cm³

It'll take 2616.946 cm³ to fill the pan.

Answer 2

2617.3cm³

Explanation:

This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes, a cylinder.

The circular pan takes the shape of a cylinder

Given data

Diameter d = 14cm

Radius r= 14/2= 7cm

Height h= 17cm

To find the capacity of water it can hold let us use the formula for the volume of the cylinder

V= πr²h

V= 3.142*(7)²*17

V= 3.142*49*17

V= 2617.3cm³
