A circular pond with a radius of 1.5 metres has a 20-inch border around it. 


If the water is 750mm deep, what is the capacity of the pond to 2 decimal places?

Answer:

[tex]V=5.30\ m^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The capacity of the pond is equal to the volume of a cylinder (circular pond)

[tex]V=\pi r^{2} h[/tex]

where

[tex]h=750\ mm=75\ cm=0.75\ m[/tex] ---> to convert mm to m divide by 1,000

[tex]r=1.5\ m[/tex]

assume

[tex]\pi =3.14[/tex]

substitute

[tex]V=(3.14)(1.5)^{2} (0.75)=5.30\ m^3[/tex]
