Water weighs 62.4 lbs/cuft
a. 797
b. 888
c. 979
d. 1234

Justification for Q. 86

The weight of a cylinder of water that is 5 feet high and 1 foot in radius can be
calculated as follows:
The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula: V = π * r^2 * h
 MUHAMMAD SHAYAN FIDA (HSE OFFICER ARAMCO)

Where r is the radius and h is the height.

Substituting the given values:
r = 1 foot
h = 5 feet
V = π * (1 ft) ^2 * 5 ft
= π * 5 ft^3
= 15.71 ft^3
Since water weighs 62.4 lbs/ft^3, the weight of this cylinder of water is:
Weight = Volume * Density
= 15.71 ft^3 * 62.4 lbs/ft^3
= 980.3 lbs [1]
Therefore, the weight of a cylinder of water that is 5 feet high and 1 foot in radius is
approximately 980.3 pounds.
