To find the height of a right circular cylinder given its volume and the diameter, we can use the formula for the volume of a cylinder:

\[
V = \pi r^2 h
\]

where:
- \( V \) is the volume,
- \( r \) is the radius of the base, and
- \( h \) is the height of the cylinder.

Given:
- Volume \( V = 7693 \, \text{cm}^3 \)
- Diameter = 14 cm, therefore, the radius \( r = \frac{\text{Diameter}}{2} = \frac{14}{2} = 7 \, \text{cm} \)
- Use \( \pi \approx 3.14 \)

Now, we can substitute the known values into the volume formula:

\[
7693 = 3.14 \times (7^2) \times h
\]

Calculating \( 7^2 \):

\[
7^2 = 49
\]

Now, substitute that into the equation:

\[
7693 = 3.14 \times 49 \times h
\]

Calculating \( 3.14 \times 49 \):

\[
3.14 \times 49 = 153.86
\]

Now, we have:

\[
7693 = 153.86 \times h
\]

To solve for \( h \), divide both sides by 153.86:

\[
h = \frac{7693}{153.86} \approx 50.04
\]

Therefore, the height of the cylinder is approximately:

\[
\boxed{50 \, \text{cm}}
\]
