Question

Emily has a jag of water, a hollow glass cone, and a hollow glass cylinder to conduct an experiment. If the cone and cylinder both have the same radius and height, which of the following is TRUE?

Answer 1

24

Explanation:

Answer 2

Option H. The cone must be filled with water and emptied into the cylinder three times in order to fill the cylinder with water. Therefore The volume of a cone is one-third the volume of the cylinder

Explanation:

we know that

The volume of the cone is equal to

`Vcone=(1)/(3)\pi r^(2) h`

The volume of the cylinder is equal to

`Vcylinder=\pi r^(2) h`

therefore

In this problem

`Vcylinder=3Vcone`

the volume of the cylinder is three times the volume of the cone

or

`Vcone=(1)/(3)Vcylinder`

The volume of the cone is one-third the volume of the cylinder
