To find the volume of a cone is.
V=pi r^2 h/3.
So if the high(h) is twice the radius(r) the expression is.
V=pi*50^2*100/3.

The correct answer is option a.)
\((2)/(3) \pi x^3\).

The formula for the volume
(\(V\)) of a cone is given by
\(V = (1)/(3) \pi r^2 h\), where \(r\) is the radius of the base and
\(h\) is the height. In this case, the height
(\(h\)) is twice the radius
(\(x\)), so
\(h = 2x\).

Substitute
\(h = 2x\) into the volume formula:


\[V = (1)/(3) \pi r^2 (2x)\]

Simplify further:


\[V = (2)/(3) \pi x^3\]

Thus, the expression representing the volume of the cone is \(\frac{2}{3} \pi x^3\).

Therefore, the correct answer is:

a.
\((2)/(3) \pi x^3\)

This expression accurately represents the volume of the cone in cubic units.
