EXPLANATION

The radius of a cone is given by the following relationship:


\text{Volume}=(1)/(3)\cdot\pi\cdot r^2\cdot h

We have Volume=V= 2,110.08 cm^3 and the height is h=14cm

Replacing terms:


2,110.08=(1)/(3)\cdot\pi\cdot r^2\cdot14

Multiplying both sides by 3:


2,110.08\cdot3=\pi\cdot r^2\cdot14

Dividing both sides by 14*pi:


(2,110.08\cdot3)/(14\cdot\pi)=r^2

Applying the square root to both sides:


\sqrt[]{(2,110.08\cdot3)/(14\cdot\pi)}=r

Switching sides:


r=\sqrt[]{(2,110.08\cdot3)/(14\cdot3.14)}

Simplifying:


r=\sqrt[]{144}

Simplifying:


r=12

The answer is r=12 centimeters
