A cylindrical pressure vessel has a height of 9 feet and a diameter of 6 feet. How much gas can the pressure vessel hold when full?

Respuesta :

You do L x W x H and you would get 54 sq in.

Answer:

The vessel can contain 254.34 cubic feet of gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the cylindrical pressure vessel = 9 feet

The diameter is = 6 feet.

So, radius = 3 feet

We need to tell how much gas can the pressure vessel hold when full, this means we have to find the volume of the cylinder. Volume is the measure of the thing that can be contained in an object.

Volume of cylinder is given by:

[tex]\pi r^{2} h[/tex]

=> [tex]3.14\times3\times3\times9[/tex]

V = 254.34 cubic feet.

Therefore, the vessel can contain 254.34 cubic feet of gas.
