For every inch of water that is added in a 6 foot diameter tank that is 15 foot long. how many gallons would it require to increase an inch at a time.
:
Find the volume of water, in cubic inches, of 1 inch of water in a 6 ft diameter tank
Radius of the tank = 3 ft, change to inches 36 inches
:
Assuming the tank is standing upright, the height makes no difference
:
Vol of water 1 inch high
V =
V = 4071.5 cu/inches
:
Change cu/in to gallons
4071.5 * .000439 = 1.78739 gallons to raise the level 1 inch
