The base radius ( or diameter) and the height
In order to work out a volume three measurements are needed length, depth and hight. If you supply the last measurement I can tell you the answer.
Density = Mass/Volume, correct. However, with a cylinder, you have to find the volume. In order to find the volume of a cylinder use the equation PiR2 * H where "R" is the radius (Diameter/2) squared.
Density is the ratio of Mass to volume, D= M/V; the two measurements then are mass and volume.
In order to find the volume of the cylinder more information is required as to the actual dimensions of the cylinder. Volume is calculated by knowing the radius and height of the cylinder.
density=mass/volume The density depends upon the mass and volume of the cylinder.
Length the width and depth
In order to find its height, we must know either the volume or the surface area of the cylinder.
Mass is measured by density multiplied by volume. In order to figure out a mass of a rock, one must know its density and its volume measurements.
The simple answer is - you can't ! You need the addition of either the diameter or radius in order to calculate the volume.
If, for example, you were reading the volume of liquid in a burette where you can quite easily get gas bubbles, the bubble will increase the volume of the liquid and your reading will not be accurate. This is especially important when you are doing a titration because if the gas bubble escapes then the total volume of liquid needed for the titration will not corrospond to the reading you would get from the burette.
In order to Calculate the weight of a hollow cylinder, you need to find out the density of the material of the cylinder first. once you have that, you can use the formulas below Find out volume of material as follows: Volume = Pi * (Outer Diameter of Cylinder)2/4 - Pi * (Inner Diameter of Cylinder)2/4 Mass = Density * Volume( from above equation) Note: Remember that units of Density and volume should be matching.
A good place to measure is the diameter of the circular end. That gives you the area of the circular end, and the only other number you need in order to calculate the cylinder's volume is its straight length.
