Capacity = 3080 m3
Base diameter = 14 m, thus radius = 7 m.
Volume of cylinder = capacity of cylinder = πr2h. = 3080
22/7 x 72 x h = 3080
h = 3080/(22x7)
h = 20 m
Base diameter = 14 m, thus radius = 7 m.
Volume of cylinder = capacity of cylinder = πr2h. = 3080
22/7 x 72 x h = 3080
h = 3080/(22x7)
h = 20 m
