We are in dilemma at my job. We need to figure out the formula for how much water can our pipe hold. It's inside diameter is 13/16" and is 50ft. long? |
Inside diameter = 13/16" => radius = 13/32"
Length in inches = 600"
Volume = pi r2 L = 311 cubic inches fairly exactly, or 1.35 US gallons, or 5.10 liters
