Question 1 Report

In the diagram above, a cylinder is summounted by a hemisphere bowl. Calculate the volume of the solid.

Answer Details
To find the volume of the solid, we need to find the volumes of the cylinder and the hemisphere bowl separately, and then add them together. The volume of the cylinder is given by the formula V_cylinder = πr^2h, where r is the radius of the base of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder. Looking at the diagram, we can see that the height of the cylinder is 12 cm and the radius of the base is also 12 cm (since the diameter of the cylinder is 24 cm). Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is: V_cylinder = π(12)^2(12) = 5,408π cm^3 The volume of the hemisphere bowl is given by the formula V_hemisphere = (2/3)πr^3, where r is the radius of the hemisphere. Again looking at the diagram, we can see that the radius of the hemisphere is also 12 cm (since it is the same as the radius of the base of the cylinder). Therefore, the volume of the hemisphere bowl is: V_hemisphere = (2/3)π(12)^3 = 9,216π/3 = 3,072π cm^3 To find the volume of the solid, we add the volume of the cylinder and the volume of the hemisphere bowl together: V_solid = V_cylinder + V_hemisphere = 5,408π + 3,072π = 8,480π cm^3 Therefore, the volume of the solid is 8,480π cm^3. : 198πcm^3 is not correct.
