Question

The diameter of a cylindrical construction pipe is 6ft. If the pipe is 32 long, what is its volume?
Use the value 3.14 for pie , and round your answer to the nearest whole number.
Be sure to include the correct unit in your answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

$V_{pipe} \approx 904 \: {ft}^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter of the pipe = 6 ft

Therefore, radius (r) = 6/2 = 3 ft

Height of pipe (h) = 32 ft

Since, pipe is cylindrical in shape.

$\therefore \: V_{pipe} =\pi {r}^{2} h \\ \\ \therefore \: V_{pipe} =3.14 {(3)}^{2} (32)\\ \\ \therefore \: V_{pipe} =3.14 {(3)}^{2} (32) \\ \\ \therefore \: V_{pipe} = 904.32 \\ \\ \therefore \: V_{pipe} \approx 904 \: {ft}^{3}$

Hence, the volume of pipe in nearest whole number is 904 cubic feet.
