The pipe will have an outside diameter of 1.5+.25+.25 = 2". A pipe with an outside diameter of 2" has an outside circumference of 2"*Pi. 2"*3.142 ~= 6.284" or about 6 1/4"
Since the circumference of a circle is equal to its diameter times pi, the o.d. of a pipe is equal to its exterior circumference divided by pi.
The diameter of a pipe is its width across an open end of the pipe. The inside diameter is the width measuring on the inside of the pipe; the outside diameter is the width measuring on the outside.______________________________________________________________________________________________________For a pipe of circular cross section, its nominal diameter is the diameter of the cross section.The inner diameter is the measuring on the inside of the pipeThe outside diameter is the measuring on the outside of the pipe.
diameter times 3.14159
They can measure the circumference of the pipe and divide it by pi or 3.14 to get an approximate answer
The pipe will have an outside diameter of 1.5+.25+.25 = 2". A pipe with an outside diameter of 2" has an outside circumference of 2"*Pi. 2"*3.142 ~= 6.284" or about 6 1/4"
The answer depends on what the "36 inch" measures: inside circumference, radius, diameter?
Since the circumference of a circle is equal to its diameter times pi, the o.d. of a pipe is equal to its exterior circumference divided by pi.
the answer for the area is 615.8 and the answer for the circumference is 88 inches when you round!!!!
The formula for working out the circumference of a circle (like a pipe) is diameter times pi. (You should find pi on your calculator, if not, it is 3.14159265) Since you know the circumference, you divide the circumference (5inch) by pi (3.14159265), and you get the diameter, i.e. the size pipe. While the above formulas are correct, using this equation example will not tell you what size pipe you have. There are a number of factors involved in determining the correct answer. There are many different materials that pipe is made out of and some of these affect the dimensions of the pipe. As an example, the actual outside diameter of 1" copper pipe and 1" steel pipe are not the same. If you are talking about steel pipe, it is important to understand that all pipe 12 inch and under is referred to as "nominal" pipe size. In this case, the outside diameter of 12 inch pipe is actually 12.75 inches. For the original question asked above, the 5 inch circumference would equal 1-9/16" outside diameter which would be the equivalent of 1-1/4" pipe (nominal).
The circumference of 12-inch pipe is: 37.7 inches. (C = d x Pi)Since 12 inch pipe is a nominal size and its outside diameter is 12.75 inches, the circumference of 12 inch pipe actually is : 40.035 inches
The diameter of a pipe is its width across an open end of the pipe. The inside diameter is the width measuring on the inside of the pipe; the outside diameter is the width measuring on the outside.______________________________________________________________________________________________________For a pipe of circular cross section, its nominal diameter is the diameter of the cross section.The inner diameter is the measuring on the inside of the pipeThe outside diameter is the measuring on the outside of the pipe.

circumference = 2*pi*radius or pi*diameter
Circumference divided by pi equals diameter. Pi X Diameter=Circumference.
take the outside diameter and subtract the thickness twice.
