A milk tank is in the form of cylinder whose radius is 1.5 m and length is 7 m. Find the quantity of milk in litres that can be stored in the tank?

Solution:

Given that the milk tank is in the form of a cylinder.

Radius of cylinder = 1.5 m

Length of cylinder h = 7 m

The volume of the cylinder = πr²h = 22/7 × (1.5)² × 7 = 49.5 m³

1 cubic meter = 1000 litres

So, 49.5 cubic meter = 49.5 × 1000

= 49500 litres

Thus, the quantity of milk that can be stored in the tank is 49500 litres.
