How do you calculate water capacity in a pipe?
The formula for the volume of cylinder is: cylinder volume = π * radius² * height . For a pipe use its length instead of height: pipe volume = π * radius² * length , where radius = inner diameter/2 . The volume of a pipe is equal to the volume of a liquid inside (if a pipe is fully filled with it).
How much water is in a foot of pipe?
Estimate water content in pipes – weight and volume

How do you calculate the Litres of water in a rectangular tank?
2) calculate volume of rectangular water tank multiply Length, breadth and their height, as Volume = 2m × 1m × 0.5m = 1m3, 3) you get volume of water rectangular tank it can hold 1 cubic metre, multiply the answer by 1000 as 1×1000= 1000 liters, the result 1000 is rectangular water tank capacity in liters.
How do you find the volume of water in a test tube?
You can get a reasonably accurate measure of volume by measuring the internal diameter of the tube and the height of the liquid. The best way to measure the diameter of a test tube is to measure the widest distance between the inside glass or plastic surfaces.

How do you find the volume of a 50 foot pipe?
For a 1-inch pipe that measures 50-feet long: 1 radius = 1 inch ÷ 2 = .5 inch 2 length = 50 × 12 inches = 600 inches 3 volume = π (pi) × radius squared × length 4 volume = 3.14159 × (.5 x .5) × 600 5 volume = 3.14159 × .25 × 600 6 volume = 471.24 in³
