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 volume of a cylinder if you only know the height?
The volume cannot be determined with only the height known.
What is the volume of a cylinder that has a diameter of 16 ft and height of 10 ft?
The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr2h, where π is pi (3.14159), r is radius, and h is height. To get the radius, you divide the diameter by 2. So the radius is 16ft/2 = 8ft. Now you can plug your known values into the formula: V = πr2h = (3.14159)(8ft)2(10ft) = 2010.6ft3
How do you find the height and radius of a cylinder with only the area of the base?
With the area of the base known, you can back figure to the radius. But unless you know the cylinder's volume, or are told that it's height is equal to the radius or diameter or circumference of the base, there's no way to find the height short of measuring it. To find the radius, you take the area of the base and divide it by pi. The resulting dividend is r2. Find the square root of the dividend, and you have the radius.
What are 2 ways to find the volume of an object?
Derive from measurements of length, breadth, height, radius, diameter etc. Measure the volume of displaced liquid when the object is submerged. If the object is of a material of known density (or specific gravity), weigh it and calculate volume from volume = mass/density.
How do you find the radius of a cone if you have height and volume?
Use the equation for the volume of a cone, replace the known height and volume, and solve the resulting equation for the radius.
If you know the height and volume of a cylinder how do you find the diameter?
You know that for a cylinder: V = (pi)r2h where V is the volume, r is the radius, and h is the height. You also know that diameter = 2r. So, plug in your known values for volume, height, and pi in the first equation to solve for r. Then, multiply r by 2 to find the diameter.
How do you find the volume of a cylinder if you only know the height?
The volume cannot be determined with only the height known.
How do you calculate the depth of liquid when you know the percent of the volume of a horizontal cylinder?
H = D sin ( ((2*pi*V.k)/V.t) - pi/2) + D Here: D = Diameter of the cylinder V.k = The known volume of the liquid V.t = The total volume of the cylinder H = The height of the liquid.

How do you find the radius of a cylinder when height and volume are given?
The volume of a cylinder is given by the equation V=2*pi*r*h V=volume r=radius h=height Since the height and volume are given in this case, rearranging the equation will show that r= V / (2*pi*h). With that equation you can find the radius of any cylinder with known volume and height.
What will be the volume of a cylinder with a length of 15 inches and diameter of 4 inches?
Volume of cylinder is pi x r x r x L Value of pi is roughly 3.1415 and you already know the diameter, so you can find the radius which would be half of the diameter. The length is also known. Can you do the multiplication, as that would give you the volume of the cylinder in cubic inches

What is the height of a cylindrical drum that has a diameter of 3 feet and a volume of 45 cubic feet?
The volume V of a cylinder with diameter d and height h = pi X (d/2)2 X h. Substituting the known values into this formula yields pi X 1.52 X h = 45, or h = 45/(pi X 1.52) = 6 feet, to the justified number of significant digits, or if the integers specified are considered exact, 6.366197724 feet.
How do you find base area of rectangular prism if you know volume and height?
Volume of a rectangular prism = base x height. If volume and height are known, solve for base area by dividing volume by height.
How do you calculate the volume in liters of a cylinder radius 17.5mm and height 420mm?
The formula for calculating the volume of a cylinder is: volume = pi * cylinder radius2 * cylinder height. Using the measurements mentioned in the form of centimetres will give an answer in cm3, which is the same as millilitres, so divide your answer by 1000 to get to a volume in litres.

How is volume determined?
By measuring it in a measuring cylinder or beaker or some container of a known volume.
