Question

Water is flowing into a conical drinking cup with an altitude of 8 inches and a radius of 5 inches, as shown in the figure.

Answer 1

`V=435.41\ \text{inches}^3`

Explanation:

Given that,

Water is flowing into a conical drinking cup.

The radius of cup, r = 5 inches

The height of the cup, h = 8 inches

Let us assume to find the volume of water coming. The formula for the volume of a cone is given by :

`V=(1)/(3)\pi r^2 h\\\\=(1)/(3)* 3.14* 52* 8\\\\=435.41\ \text{inches}^3`

So, the volume of water flowing is
`435.41\ \text{inches}^3`.
