Question

A cylindrical water tower is 24 feet high and has a diameter of 20 feet. Approximately how many cubic feet of water could the tower hold

Answer 1

The vol. of a cyl. is V = pi*r^2*h.

Here, V = pi*(10 ft)^2*(24 ft) = 7540 gallons (rounded up from 7539.82)

Answer 2

The number of cubic feet of water could the tower holds approximately will be 7539.8 cubic feet.

What is the volume of a right circular cylinder?

Let r be the radius and h be the height of the cylinder.

Then the volume of the cylinder will be

V = π r²h cubic units

A cylindrical water tower is 24 feet high and has a diameter of 20 feet.

The radius of the cylinder will be

d = 2r

20 = 2r

r = 10 feet

The number of cubic feet of water could the tower hold approximately will be

V = π r²h

V = π x 10² x 24

V = π x 100 x 24

V = 7539.8 cubic feet

The number of cubic feet of water could the tower holds approximately will be 7539.8 cubic feet.
