Question
A cylindrical water bottle has a diameter of
2 in and a height of 8 in
. What is the volume of the water bottle?
Use =3.14
and round your final answer to the nearest hundredth.
Volume
The volume of a cylinder is calculated using the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
Given that the diameter is 2 inches, the radius (r) is half of the diameter, so r = 2/2 = 1 inch.
The height (h) is given as 8 inches.
Plugging these values into the formula:
V = π(1)^2(8)
V = 3.14 x 1 x 1 x 8
V = 25.12 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the water bottle is 25.12 cubic inches.
