A pipe 1 foot in diameter and 6 foot long will hold (pi x 0.52 x 6) cubic feet

Taking pi as 3.1416 we can rewrite the formula as 3.1416 x 0.25 x 6 = 4.7124 cubic feet.

A US gallon = 0.13368056 cubic feet - which would mean that the pipe held 4.7124 / 0.13368056 = 35.25 US gallons

An Imperial gallon = 0.16054365 cubic feet - which would mean that the pipe held 4.7124 / 0.16054365 = 29.35 Imperial gallons

To find the volume of water in the pipe, calculate the volume of a cylinder using the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius of the pipe and h is the length of the pipe (2600 feet). First convert 6 inches to feet (0.5 feet). Then plug in the values and calculate the volume.

A piece of pipe with a 6-inch inner diameter that's 700-ft long has a capacity

of 137.4 cubic feet, or 1,028.16 gallons.

We have no way of knowing how much water is in it. For all we know, it may

even be empty.
