Answer:

Solution:

Since the given solid is a combination of a cone, cylinder, and hemisphere, we must sum the volumes of the cone, cylinder, and hemisphere to determine its volume.

Given common radius, r = 7 cm

Height of the cone, h = 4 cm

Height of the cylinder, H = 4 cm

Volume of the solid = Volume of the cone + Volume of the cylinder + Volume of the hemisphere

= (1/3)π r2h +π r2H + (2/3) π r3

= π r2((h/3) + H + (2r/3))

= (22/7)×72×((4/3)+4+(2×7)/3)

= (22×7×((4+12+14)/3)

= 22×7×30/3

= 1540 cm3

Hence the volume of the solid is 1540 cm3. M L Aggarwal - Understanding ICSE Mathematics - Class 10 chapter Mensuration Question 15 Solution image
