Question

A right cylinder-shaped water ta is used to supply water to a reservoir. If the cylinder has a diameter of 16 feet and a height of 22 feet, what is a reasonable estimate of the maximum amount og water the tank can hold

Answer 1

The tank can hold 4423.36 feet³ of water.

Explanation:

Given that,

Height = 22 feet

Diameter = 16 feet

We need to calculate the maximum amount of water

Using formula of volume

`V=\pi r^2h`

Where, h = height of cylinder

r = radius of cylinder

Put the value into the formula

`V=\pi*(8)^2* 22`

`V= 4423.36\ feet^3`

Hence, The tank can hold 4423.36 feet³ of water.
