Solution and Explanation

A solid is in the shape of a cone standing on a hemisphere
Given:
Height (h) of conical part = Radius(r) of conical part = 1 cm
Radius(r) of hemispherical part = Radius of conical part (r) = 1 cm

Volume of solid = Volume of conical part + Volume of hemispherical part
\(=\frac{1}{ 3}\pi 𝑟^2ℎ+\frac{2}{ 3}\pi 𝑟^3\)

\(=\frac{1}{ 3}\pi \times1^2\times1+\frac{2}{ 3}\pi \times1^3\)

\(=\pi \ 𝑐𝑚^3\)
