Question

A milk tank is in the form of a cylinder whose radius is 1.5 m and length is 7 m. Find the quantity of milk in litres that can be stored in the tank?

Answer 1

Radius of cylinder = 1.5 m

Length of cylinder = 7 m

Volume of cylinder = πr²h

= `(22/7 xx 1.5 xx 1.5 xx 7)m^3`

= 49.5 m³

1m³ = 1000 L

Required quantity = (49.5 × 1000) L

= 49500 L

Therefore, 49500 L of milk can be stored in the tank.
