How many barrels of cement slurry are required to fill a 14 inch diameter well that is 1,900 feet deep? 9979 bbls 362 bbls 2031 bbls None of the above
Added by Amy H.
Step 1
The formula for the volume of a cylinder (which is the shape of the well) is V=πr²h, where r is the radius and h is the height. The radius is half of the diameter, so r = 14/2 = 7 inches. But we need to convert this to feet, because the depth of the well is Show more…
