Solution

The capacity of a right circular cylinder is given by the formula:

V = πr²h

where:

  • V is the volume (or capacity),
  • r is the radius of the base,
  • h is the height,
  • π is a constant approximately equal to 3.14159.

Given that the radius r is 1.5m and the height h is 7m, we can substitute these values into the formula:

V = π * (1.5m)² * 7m V = π * 2.25m² * 7m V = 15.707963267948966 m³

Since 1 cubic meter is equal to 1000 liters, we can convert the volume from cubic meters to liters:

V = 15.707963267948966 m³ * 1000 L/m³ V = 15707.963267948966 L

So, the capacity of the cylinder is approximately 15708 liters.
