How about this plan: We'll explain how to solve the problem,
and then you go ahead and get the answer on your own.
The pipe is a cylinder.
The volume of the cylinder is: (pi) times (radius of the pipe)2 x (length of the pipe)
(Remember that the radius is 1/2 of the diameter.)
With that formula, you can find the volume of any length of pipe. You know the
diameter in inches, so the volume will be in cubic inches.
One gallon is exactly 231 cubic inches. Find what the length of the pipe has to be
in order to have a volume of 231 cubic inches.
Go to it ! You can do it !
Circumference = pi*diameter 2 = pi*diameter Divide both sides of the equation by pi: 2/pi = diameter diameter = 0.6366197724 inches radius is half of the diameter: radius = 0.3183098862 inches
A 55 gallon drum is just a cylinder and, as such, the volume can be determined by the formula ¶r2h (Pi times radius squared times height). According to Wikipedia, standard 55 gallon drums are 22.5 inches in diameter and 33.5 inches high. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/55_gallon_drum The equation is thus 3.14 * 11.25^2 * 33.5. That comes out to 13313 cubic inches or 7.7 cubic feet.
The drum should measure 23 inches diameter 36 inches height These are all external measurements.
Cannot be answered without knowing what unit the diameter is measured in, e.g., inches, feet, etc.
The inches in a diameter = 2 X inches in the radius. Or, inches in a diameter = inches in circumference / pi
The dimensions for a 20 gallon drum is 21.75 inches high, 18.25 inches inside diameter, and 18.75 inches outside diameter. It can accommodate a load of 199 pounds.
Circumference = pi*diameter 2 = pi*diameter Divide both sides of the equation by pi: 2/pi = diameter diameter = 0.6366197724 inches radius is half of the diameter: radius = 0.3183098862 inches

The equation for circumference is C=(Pi)*d or 3.14 times the diameter. Therefore, you answer would be 6.625*3.14=20.8025 inches.
A 100 US gallon sphere will have a diameter of 35.335 inches (just short of 3 feet diameter).
To get the circumference of a circle, the equation is pi * diameter. So, in this case, it is 2.5 * pi (3.14), or roughly 7.85. So, the circumference of the circle is about 7.85 inches.

A 56-gallon propane tank typically measures around 24 inches in diameter and 44 inches in height. It can hold up to 420 pounds of propane when filled to 80% capacity.
I'd say 12 inches. it's a guestimate but I'm sure I am pretty close.
