Question 1020783: The crater of a volcano is approximately in the shape of a cone of base 2 square km. If the crater's depth is 1km, what is the volume of the filling materials would be required to fill this cavity? Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi there,
If you consider the volcano
as a pyramid.
Volume = 1/3 Base area x height
Volume = 1/3 x 2 x 1
Volume = 0.67 km^3
This is the quantity of
material required to fill it.
Hope this helps :-)
