You need to know the length and radius (1/2 the diameter) of the cylinder. From there, use this formula: V = radius2x Pi x length
The formula for volume of a cylinder is (pi *r2 )h
The volume of the stone is measured by displacement. Water is put into the measuring cylinder to a noted mark. The stone is placed in the cylinder and the water level will rise. The difference between the two levels is the volume in ml of the stone.
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.

If the area of the base and the height of the cylinder and the cone are the same, then the volume of the cone will always be one third of the volume of the cylinder.
The formula for volume of a cylinder is (pi *r2 )h
The volume of displaced water for a metal cylinder with a volume of 50cm3 is: 13,210 US gallons of water or 11,000 UK gallons of water.
A cylinder with these dimensions has a volume of about 2.61 US gallons of water.
To determine the volume of an irregular object using graduated cylinders, you fill a graduated cylinder with water right to the top, then submerge the object in the water. Measure the water that overflows using a second graduated cylinder, and read the water level in it in cc's or cubic inches. That is the object's volume.
To find the volume of an irregular shape, you need to use the water displacement method. If the object can fit into a graduated cylinder, fill the cylinder with enough water to adequately cover the object, but don't put the object inside the cylinder yet. Record the amount of water in the cylinder. Carefully drop the object into the cylinder. This will cause a rise in the water in the cylinder. Record this second volume. Subtract the first volume from the second volume, and the difference is the volume of the irregular object. For larger objects, use an overflow can.
Water in a glass graduated cylinder adheres to the sides of the cylinder, forming a meniscus which is an upward curve. When reading volume in a cylinder, look at the meniscus at eye level. Read the volume at the bottom of the curve.
Step 1 . calculate the volume of the cylinder step 2 . put the rock in the cylinder and fill it with water to the top step 3. measure the amount of water step 4 subtract the volume of the water from the volume of the cylinder, and you have the volume of the rock.
First put water in measuring cylinder and note the volume of water. Next, put the pebble in it.
If the object in question is water proof, and small enough. You can measure the amount of displaced water when it is placed in a tank full of water, this may not work for a lot of things but it can help when attempting to measure some objects.
To find the volume of water you must put it in a graduated cylinder. Read the measurements.
length x width x height or put water in a graduated cylinder, and measure the volume of water. then place the object in the graduated cylinder and record the new volume of the water. subtract the old volume from the new, and that is the volume of the object.
Use a graduated cylinder and the water displacement method. Pour the sample of water in the graduated cylinder and find its meniscus. That is its volume.
