Question

The circumference of the base of a cylindrical vessel is 132 cm and its height is 25 cm. How many litres of water can it hold? (1000 cm³ = I l)

Answer 1

Answer:

554.4 l of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given , circumference of the base of cylindrical vessel = 132 cm

             height = 25 cm

now the formula for  circumference of base of cylindrical vessel =$2 \pi r$

⇒ $2 \pi r = 132$

⇒ $r=\frac{132}{2\pi}$      ( take $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$ )

⇒ r = 84 cm

volume of water ,a cylindrical vessel can hold = $\pi r^{2}h$

                                                       = $\frac{22}{7}\times \left ( 84 \right )^{2}\times 25$

                                                       = $554,400 cm^{3}$

                                                       = 554.4 l          ∵($1000cm^{3} = 1l$)
