The formula to calculate the capacity of a cylinder is:
\[ V = \pi \cdot r^2 \cdot h \]
Where:
Cylinder capacity, also known as tank capacity, is a measure of the internal volume of a cylinder or tank. In other words, this is how much space is inside the cylinder that is available for storage.
Example 1:
Calculation:
\[ V = \pi \cdot (1)^2 \cdot 2 \approx 6.28 \text{ cubic meters} \]
Example 2:
Calculation:
\[ V = \pi \cdot (0.5)^2 \cdot 1.5 \approx 1.18 \text{ cubic meters} \]
