Answer:
[tex]\approx[/tex] 11 litres of water will fit inside the container.
Step-by-step explanation:
As per the given figure, we have a container formed with combination of a right angled cone placed at the top of a right cylinder.
Given:
Height of cylinder, [tex]h_1[/tex] = 15 cm
Diameter of cylinder/ cone, D = 26 cm
Slant height of cone, l = 20 cm
Here, we need to find the volume of container.[tex]\\Volume_{Container} = Volume_{Cylinder}+Volume_{Cone}\\\Rightarrow Volume_{Container} = \pi r_1^2 h_1+\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r_2^2 h_2[/tex]
Here,
[tex]r_1=r_2 = \dfrac{Diameter}{2} = \dfrac{26}{2} =13\ cm[/tex]
To find the Height of Cylinder, we can use the following formula:
[tex]l^2 = r_2^2+h_2^2\\\Rightarrow h_2^2 = 20^2-13^2\\\Rightarrow h_2^2 = 400-169\\\Rightarrow h_2^2 = 231\\\Rightarrow h_2=15.2\ cm \approx 15\ cm[/tex]
Now, putting the values to find the volume of container:
[tex]Volume_{Container} = \pi \times 13^2 \times 15+\dfrac{1}{3}\pi \times 13^2 \times 15\\\Rightarrow Volume_{Container} = \pi \times 13^2 \times 15+\pi \times 13^2 \times 5\\\Rightarrow Volume_{Container} = \pi \times 13^2 \times 20\\\Rightarrow Volume_{Container} = 10613.2 \approx 10613\ cm^3[/tex]
Converting [tex]cm^{3 }[/tex] to litres:
[tex]10613 cm^3 = 10.613\ litres \approx 11\ litres[/tex]
[tex]\approx[/tex] 11 litres of water will fit inside the container.
