Cylinder Volume Calculator

 A cylinder is a closed solid geometric figure which has generally equal circular bases on its top and bottom and has curved surface on the sides. Volume of a cylinder is calculated by taking the radius of the circular base and the height of the figure. Cylinder volume calculator is a fun tool useful in finding the volume of any cylinder given its radius and height.



Example 1: Find the volume of the cylinder where radius of the base is 5cm and the height is 8cm.

Volume of the cylinder, V = π * r² * h

Given radius of the cylinder, r = 5cm

Height of the cylinder, h = 8cm

Substituting the radius and the height in the above volume formula, we get

 Volume, V = π * (5cm) ² * (8cm)   π * 25cm² * 8cm

 Volume, V = 3.142 * 25cm² * 8cm

 Volume of the cylinder, V = 628.3cm³


 
Example 2: Find the volume of the cylinder where radius of the base is 4mand the height is 12m.

Volume of the cylinder, V = π * r² * h

Given radius of the cylinder, r = 4m

Height of the cylinder, h = 12m

Substituting the radius and the height in the above volume formula, we get

 Volume, V = π * (4m) ² * (12m)   π * 16m² * 12m

 Volume, V = 3.142 * 16m² * 12m

 Volume of the cylinder, V = 603.2m³
