Formula for volume of a circular cylinder?
The volume of a cylinder is represented by this formula:r2Ï€hwhere r = radius of circular baseand h = height of cylinder
How do you find Volume for a cylinder?
Volume of a cylinder = pi*(radius)2*(height) where pi = 22/7
What expression could be used to find the volume of a cylinder with the height of 5cm and a 3cm?
Volume of a cylinder = pi*radius2*height
Can mass be measured in a graduated cylinder?
No. You mesure volume with a graduated cylinder.
How can you prove that the volume of a sphere is equal to the volume of a cylinder provided their radii are equal and the height of the cylinder is equal to the diameter of the sphere?
I'm quite sure this is impossible to prove, because the volume of a sphere is not equal to the volume of a cylinder with the same radius and height equal to the sphere's diameter. This can be shown as: Volume of sphere = (4*pi*r3) / 3. Volume of cylinder = pi*r2*h. Here, the height, h, of the cylinder = d = 2r. So, the volume of the cylinder = pi*r2*2r = 2*pi*r3, which obviously does not equal the volume of the sphere. The volume of half a sphere (with radius r) is equal to the volume of a cylinder(whose height is equal to its radius, r) minus the volume of a cone with the same height and radius. Therefore, the volume of a sphere is just double that. If you follow the nearby link, you can see a nice demonstration of that.
