Question

The diameter of a water tank in the shape of a cylinder is 3 m and height 4 m. How many litres of water will the tank hold?

Answer 1

Radius = 1.5 m, Height = 4m

Volume of the cylinder

= Base area × height = πr²h = 3.14 × 1.5 × 1.5 × 4 = 28.26 m³

= 28.26 × 100 × 100 × 100 cm³

= 28260000 cm³ = 28260000/1000 = 28260 liter
