I thought i used this equation (.785)(180ft)^2(20)(7.48 gals) but it never comes close to one of the answers please help if you can it is for my water distrabution class Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The question is water per foot?
diameter = 180 feet
radius = 90 feet
height of water = 1 foot.
Volume V = pi*r^2*h
V= pi*90^2*1
V= 508938 cu.ft.
..
1 cu.ft = 7.48 gallons
508,938 cu.ft = 7.48*508938=190,342 gallons
