Q. Find the volume of a right circular cone that has a height of 2m and a base with a diameter of 11.1m. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic meter.Answer: m3
Find Radius: To find the volume of a cone, we use the formula V=31πr2h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cone. First, we need to find the radius of the base.The diameter of the base is given as 11.1 meters, so the radius r is half of the diameter.r=2diameterr=211.1mr=5.55m
Substitute values: Now that we have the radius, we can substitute the values into the volume formula.V=31πr2hV=31π(5.55m)2(2m)
Calculate area: Next, we calculate the square of the radius and multiply by the height.(5.55m)2=30.8025m2V=31π(30.8025m2)(2m)
Multiply by height: We then multiply the area by the height and divide by 3 to get the volume.V=3π(30.8025m2)(2m)V=3π(61.605m2)
Find volume: Now we multiply by π and divide by 3 to find the volume.V≈3.14159×61.605m2/3V≈193.672m3/3V≈64.557m3
Round answer: Finally, we round the answer to the nearest tenth of a cubic meter. V≈64.6m3
