The capacity of a cylinder would be its volume. V=(pi)(r^2)(h), where V = volume in cubic units, pi = 3.14159 rounded to six significant figures (you can round to a different value; ask your teacher), r is radius, and h is height.
Suppose you want to find the volume of a 15-cm high cylinder with a diameter of 8.00 cm. The radius is half the diameter, or 4.00 cm. V = (3.14159) x (4.00 cm)^2 x (15 cm) = 754 cm^3 (rounded to three significant figures)

How do you find the capacity of the cylinder?
pi*radius2*height
How do you work out the capacity of a cylindar?
The capacity of a cylinder is its volume which is the area of an end times the cylinder's length (height). If the cylinder has radius r and length h, its volume (capacity) is: {pi}r2h
How do you find the diametre given only the height and capacity?
The capacity (or volume) of a cylinder is pi*r2*h where r is the radius of the base and h is the height. Use this equation to find r and then double it to get the diameter.
What is the difference between a cylinder capacity and an engine capacity?
an engine may have more than one cylinder. if a 4 cylinder engine has a displacement of 2.2 L, then each cylinder is 1/4 th of that or 0.55 L per cylinder.
How many liters of water are in a graduated cylinder?
As many as were put into it, subject to the total capacity of the cylinder.
