Question 802278: A wafer cone shown contains 56 cubic centimetre of ice-cream filled to the bottom. the diameter of the cone is 4.2 cm and the top of the ice-cream has the shape of a hemisphere. find the height of the cone Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
The radius of both the hemisphere part and the base of the cone part is the same, namely one-half of the diameter of the cone base.
The volume of a hemisphere is one-half the volume of a sphere which is , so . The volume of a cone is one-third the volume of a cylinder with congruent base and height, so .
Solve for . If you are going to calculate a numerical approximation, your least precise measurement is the volume which is given to the nearest whole cc. Therefore, present the height rounded to the nearest whole cm.
