Question

The capacity of a soda can be calculated using the formula.

• A. 2πr(r+h)
• B. 2πr
• C. π$r^2$h
• D. All of these

Answer 1

The correct option is C

π$r^2$h

A soda can is a rough example of a cylinder.

The volume of a cylinder is $\pi r^{2}h$.
The capacity of any vessel is its internal volume so, the capacity of a soda can be calculated using the formula $\pi r^{2}h$.

Where,
r = base radius of the can

h = height of the can
