No matter what you're finding, use the equation V=πr2h. Then solve algebraically.
V=volume
h=height
r=radius
πr2=area of the base

If the volume of a cylinder is known how do you find the height and diameter of the cylinder?
You cannot determine the height and diameter from just the volume because there is an almost infinite number of combinations of height and diameter that could create a particular volume.
How do you find the height and diameter of a cylinder with just the volume?
You cannot find the height and diameter of a cylinder by knowing the volume only. There are infinite combinations of height and diameter that will result in the same volume. You need to know either the diameter or the height in addition to the volume to calculate the remaining unknown. Volume = pi/4 * d2 * h (note: pi/4 * d2 is the same as pi * r2)
How can you find the volume of sand in a pipe in metric?
A pipe has the shape of a cylinder; just use the formula for the volume of a cylinder. In metric units, you have the advantage that the units are consistent. For example, if the radius and height of the cylinder are measured in decimeters, the volume will be in cubic decimeters (= liters).
Just tell you the proof that volume of cone is equal to three times the volume of cylinder?
Volume of cylinder = PI r^2 h where r = radius and h= height Volume of Cone = (1/3) PI r^2 h where r=radius and h= height Therefore, the volume of a cone is one-third of the volume of a cylinder.
What is the volume of this cylinder that has a radius of 5.5 inches and a height of 8 inches?
Volume = pi*radius2*height Volume = pi*5.5*8 = just over 760 cubic inches

How do you find the mass of a cylinder?
A balance is used to find the mass of anything, an electronic balance or a beam balance. Did you mean the volume of a cylinder? Volume = area of base x height = pi x radius2 x h

How do you find the the height of triangular prism if you already have volume and base?
The volume is equal to the area of the base multiplied by the height. So, to find the height, just divide the volume by the area of the base.
How can you prove that the volume of a sphere is equal to the volume of a cylinder provided their radii are equal and the height of the cylinder is equal to the diameter of the sphere?
I'm quite sure this is impossible to prove, because the volume of a sphere is not equal to the volume of a cylinder with the same radius and height equal to the sphere's diameter. This can be shown as: Volume of sphere = (4*pi*r3) / 3. Volume of cylinder = pi*r2*h. Here, the height, h, of the cylinder = d = 2r. So, the volume of the cylinder = pi*r2*2r = 2*pi*r3, which obviously does not equal the volume of the sphere. The volume of half a sphere (with radius r) is equal to the volume of a cylinder(whose height is equal to its radius, r) minus the volume of a cone with the same height and radius. Therefore, the volume of a sphere is just double that. If you follow the nearby link, you can see a nice demonstration of that.
How do you find the volume of a cylinder with a base of 4.4m2 and height of 3.5m?
find the area of the base and multiply that by the height. The base is a circle so its area is Pi x radius squared. Not sure what the radius is in your question. If you mean the base has area 4.4 meters squared, and that is what I think you do, then just multiply that by 3.5 ie 4.4x 3.5 and that is volume of the cylinder.
Formula to find the height of a cylinder when the volume and diameter are given?
First you have to know that the [ Volume of a cylinder = (pi) x (radius)2 x (height) ].Then you just massage that formula around to solve it for the height.Thusly:Volume = (pi) x (1/2 diameter)2 x (height)Multiply each side by 'height' :(Volume) x (height) = (pi) x (1/2 diameter)2Divide each side by 'volume' :Height = (pi) x (1/2 diameter)2/(volume) .And there you have it ... you know all of the items on the right side.
If you kow just the height of a cylinder then how do you get the volume?
That's not enough information. For the same height, you can have different radii, and therefore, different volumes.
What is the formula for finding the height of a cylinder?
That depends on what you already know about it. Formulas are just relationships between what you do know and what you don't know. I can't tell you what formula to use until you tell me what you know. Example: If you know the volume of the cylinder and its radius, then Height = Volume / pi xradius2 If you know the area of the cylinder and its radius, then Height = Area / 2 x pi x Radius If you know the volume and area of the cylinder, then Height = Area2 / 4 x pi x Volume
