Answer:

3.48cm³ (approximated)

Explanation:

The maximum water that bowl can hold = The volume of the bowl


\boxed{ \mathsf{volume \: of \: bowl = (2)/(3) * \pi \: r {}^(3) }}

Radius is half of diameter.

Given -

  • Diameter = 10cm .

From the given data we can derive that the radius of the hemispherical bowl is 5cm (10/2)

Putting the known values into the formula to get the value of the volume of bowl :


\mathsf{volume = (2)/(3) * \: 3.14 \: * {5}^(3) }

= 3.48888cm³

= 3.48cm³
