Then turn the cylinder on its end!skandol said:
To calculate the volume of a right circular cylinder, you will need to know its height and radius. The formula for calculating the volume of a cylinder is V = πr²h, where V is the volume, r is the radius, and h is the height.
The unit of measurement for cylinder volume is typically cubic units, such as cubic inches, cubic feet, or cubic meters. This unit represents the amount of space inside the cylinder.
Yes, the formula V = πr²h can be used to calculate the volume of any right circular cylinder, regardless of its size. However, make sure to use the appropriate units for the radius and height to get an accurate result.
No, the volume of a cylinder refers to the amount of space inside the cylinder, while its capacity refers to the maximum amount of liquid or gas it can hold. The capacity of a cylinder may be less than its volume if there is empty space inside the cylinder.
To convert the volume of a cylinder into different units, you can use conversion factors. For example, to convert cubic inches to cubic feet, you would divide the volume in cubic inches by 1728, since there are 1728 cubic inches in a cubic foot.
