For this, you can work out the volume of the cylinder of sand you need to fill. But you'll also need to know the density of the sand to convert this volume into weight.

At 12 inch per foot that is 3.14x30x30*2/12/4 = 117.75 cubic feet of sand at 100 pounds per cubic foot = 11,775 pounds (5.88 tons). Since a yard is 27 cubic feet that is 117.75/27 = 4.4 yards
depends on what you mean by 5x5, would that be feet or yards If feet then 3.75 bags If yards then 33.75 A 50lb bag of sand is 0,5 cubic feet
You can't do the calculation because 4 yards is a linear measurement and you need a cubic measurement to calculate the weight of a substance. If you meant 4 cu.yds. then that would be 4*27 = 108 cu.ft. Sand (dry) = 1.6 pounds per cu.ft. Sand (wet) = 2.0 pounds per cu.ft. Therefore: 1.6 x 108 = 172.8 pounds = 0.0864 tons (dry) or 2.0 x 108 = 216 pounds = 0.108 tons (wet)
to build a volleyball court you will need about 3 or 4 yards of sand

Clean quartz sand weighs 80-125 pounds per cubic foot depending on degree of compaction and moisture content. A cubic yard is made up from 27 cubic feet. So taking a value of about 100 pounds of sand per cubic foot, 1 cubic yards of sand would weigh 2700 pounds or 1.35 ton [short, US]. Thus 4/1.35 = 2.963 So 4 short, US tons of sand would occupy a volume of 2.963 cubic yards.
The weight of sand can vary based on factors like moisture content and the type of sand. On average, 1 cubic meter of sand weighs around 1.6 to 1.9 tons. Therefore, 4 cubic meters of sand would weigh approximately 6.4 to 7.6 tons.
According to the Georgia (U.S.) '''Agriculture Education website(refer to the GEA link, below; n.b., it's a Powerpoint presentation),one cubic yard of sand = 27 cubic feet,and one cubic foot of sand weighs about 100 pounds,so 4 cubic yards would weigh 10,800 pounds (i.e., 27 x 4 x 100)or 5.4 tons (i.e., 10,800 / 2,000 pounds per ton).'''
Square yards is a measure of area, you need to purchase your sand as a volume not an area. You will need 2000 cubic feet of sand.
For this, you can work out the volume of the cylinder of sand you need to fill. But you'll also need to know the density of the sand to convert this volume into weight.

how many yards are in a ton of wood chips 2000 pounds equals a ton 500 lbs equals one yard 4 yards equals one ton 9000 lbs equals 4.5 tons not 2.5 tons (typo error)
At 12 inch per foot that is 3.14x30x30*2/12/4 = 117.75 cubic feet of sand at 100 pounds per cubic foot = 11,775 pounds (5.88 tons). Since a yard is 27 cubic feet that is 117.75/27 = 4.4 yards
i dont think you phrased your question correctly
