Capacity of the container = (pi) x (radius of the round end)2 x (height of the cylinder).
That's the capacity of the container. If the volume of the fluid in it is really what you want,
then you can use the same formula, but instead of the full height of the container, use only
the height of the fluid column, i.e. what we professionals would technically refer to as the "depth".

What is the formula for calculating volume of liquid?
The formula for calculating the volume of fluid to the fluid container in which it is located. For example. If the container is cylindrical. Area x height = volume of liquid
How many fluid ounces is in a cylindrical container?
To calculate the number of fluid ounces in a cylindrical container, you need to know the height and radius of the cylinder. Once you have this information, you can use the formula for the volume of a cylinder (V = π * r^2 * h) and then convert the cubic volume to fluid ounces (1 cubic inch = 0.554 fluid ounces).
Calculate the volume of water within the container when full and then calculate the position of the indicating fluid when the container contains only half of its full capacity?
1/3
How many liquid ounces fit to 1.5x 6x 21 inch container?
To calculate the volume of the container in liquid ounces, you first need to convert the dimensions from inches to fluid ounces. Once you have the volume in cubic inches, you can convert it to fluid ounces using the conversion factor that 1 cubic inch is equal to 0.554 fluid ounces.
Does a fluid have a definite volume and shape?
A fluid has a definite volume, but it does NOT have a definite shape: its shape changes depending on the container it is in.
What Equation you would use to figure out the volume of liquid?
It depends on what information you have. If the liquid is stored in a container of which the dimensions are known, then you must calculate the volume of the container. You can simply search google for the formulae for the volume of a cube, cylinder, sphere etc. If the dimensions are not known, but the weight and density of the fluid is, then the volume can be calculated as: volume = weight (divided by) density
What are the two kinds of fluid?
The two main types of fluid are liquids and gases. Liquids have a definite volume and take the shape of their container, while gases do not have a definite volume or shape and expand to fill their container.
Will adding 3 cups of washer fluid to 1 gallon of water increase the container volume?
No it won't. But it will increase the volume of the liquids in the container, by 3 cups.
The amount of fluid a container can hold is called what?
It is usually called the capacity. It is basically the same thing as the volume.
What happens when a fluid is compressed?
When a fluid is compressed, the volume of the fluid decreases while the pressure and temperature increase. This leads to an increase in the density of the fluid.
Amount a container can hold?
Is called the capacity or the volume of the container. It is usually measured in cubic centimetres or in litres. There are formulae for straightforward shapes but for most irregular shapes the only way to find the capacity is empirically - fill it with a fluid and then measure the volume of the fluid.
Does a liquid have a definite shape and volume at room temperature?
Yes. A liquid has a definite shape and when a liquid is poured into a container, the liquid takes on the shape of the container.
