Calculate the volume of the tank(Use 3,14)
To calculate the capacity of the water tank, we need to determine the volume of the tank. The volume of a cylinder (which the water tank resembles) can be calculated using the formula V = πr^2h, where V is the volume, π is a constant (approximated as 3.14), r is the radius of the cylinder's base, and h is the height of the cylinder.
Given that the diameter of the cylinder is 3.5m, the radius (r) can be calculated by dividing the diameter by 2, so r = 3.5m / 2 = 1.75m.
The height (h) of the water tank is given as 5m.
Now we can substitute these values into the formula:
V = πr^2h
V = 3.14 * (1.75m)^2 * 5m
V = 3.14 * 3.0625m^2 * 5m
V = 3.14 * 15.3125m^3
V = 48.084375m^3
Therefore, the capacity of the water tank is approximately 48.08 cubic meters.
