Help Please!!! A cylindrical pressure vessel has a height of 9 feet and a diameter of 6 feet. How much gas can the pressure vessel hold when full? I know the answer is 81pi cubic ft but not sure what formula to use to get that answer. It's not Volume of a cylinder.

It indeed is about the volume of the cyliner : Formula - πr²h => π (3*3) (9) = 81π

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I was doing it wrong 3.14*3^2*9
