The formula to calculate cross sectional area of a cylinder is pi (a constant value, approximately 3.14) multiplied by the radius of the cylinder (half the diameter, so half the distance from on side of the circle to the other) squared (multiplied again by itself) So if the circular end of the cylinder is 10 centimeters across, then the diameter is 10cm and the radius is 5cm. The cross sectional area would be calculated as: 3.14 x 5cm x 5cm = 78.5cm squared.

How are the formulas for the area of a circle and the volume of a cylinder related?
The volume of a cylinder is the cross-sectional area of the cylinder multiplied by its length. The perpendicular cross-section of a cylinder is a circle.
Cross sectional area of a cylinder?
= area of a circle = pi*r^2 or length x width if the cross section is longitudinal (since the area will be rectangular)
How do you calculate volume in prism?
Volume of prism = area of cross section x length.
How do you calculate cross sectional area?
To calculate Cross Sectional Area: Width x Depth
How do you calculate surface area for spiral wall?
Consider it as cylinder..
How do you calculate the volume of cylinder?
Volume of a cylinder = (area of its cross-section) x (its length) If the end is a circle, then the area of the cross-section = (pi) x (half the diameter)2 = (pi) x (radius)2 Then Volume = pi R2 L
How do you calculate area of cylinder in taper shape?
By definition, a cylinder has two equal circular (or elliptical) faces and a uniform cross section. Therefore, a cylinder cannot be tapered.
How are the formulas for the area of a circle and the volume of a cylinder related?
The volume of a cylinder is the cross-sectional area of the cylinder multiplied by its length. The perpendicular cross-section of a cylinder is a circle.
Given a cylinder with radius 8 in and height 11 in find the area of a cross section that is parallel to its base. Leave your answer in terms of pi.?
The area of a cross section of a cylinder that is parallel to its base is equal to the area of the base. In this case, the base of the cylinder is a circle with a radius of 8 inches. Therefore, the area of the cross section is 64pi square inches.
How do you calculate the cross sectional area of cable?

How do you calculate area of steelrod?
If the steel rod has a circular cross-section - the usual case - you can use the formula for a cylinder. Since the area of the base is quite small, it can be ignored - just calculate length x diameter x pi.

the area of a cross section of a prism with a cross section which is a regular hexagon is 10.4m^2. the volume of the prism is 8.84m^2. calculate the height of the prism?
just not to confuse you, here is the question more clearer: A prism has a cross section that is a regular hexagon The area of the cross section is 10.4m^2. The volume of the prism is 8.84m^2. Calculate the height of the prism.
How do you find the diameter of a cylinder if the volume is 1962.5 and the length is 25?
Volume = Length*Area of cross-section So area of cross section = 1962.5/25 = 78.5 units If the cylinder has diameter d then area of cross section = pi*d2/4 So d2 = 4*Area/pi = 99.95 square units. Then d = sqrt(99.95) = 9.997 units of length.
How do you calculate the cross sectional area of a cube?
You cannot unless you know the angle of the plane which defines the cross section.
How do you calculate volume in prism?
Volume of prism = area of cross section x length.
