Given:

A cone with height 3 cm and diameter 5 cm

Required:

To find the volume of the cone.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the cone is given by


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

Here,


\begin{gathered} h=3cm \\ r=(5)/(2) \\ \\ r=2.5cm \end{gathered}

Therefore,


V=(1)/(3)*3.14*(2.5)^2*3
\begin{gathered} V=19.625cm^3 \\ \\ V=19.63cm^3 \end{gathered}

Final Answer:

The volume of the cone is 19.63 cubic centimeter.
