Q1:
A solid is in the shape of a cone standing on a hemisphere with both their radii being equal to $1$ cm and the height of the cone is equal to its radius. Find the volume of the solid in terms of $\pi$.
Solution :
Given:
1. A solid consists of a cone mounted on a hemisphere.
2. The radius of the hemisphere ($r$) = $1$ cm.
3. The radius of the base of the cone ($r$) = $1$ cm.
4. The height of the cone ($h$) = radius of the cone = $1$ cm.
To Find:
The total volume of the solid in terms of $\pi$.
Step 1: Formulae Identification
The total volume of the solid ($V_{total}$) is the sum of the volume of the cone ($V_{cone}$) and the volume of the hemisphere ($V_{hemisphere}$).
Formula for the volume of a cone: $V_{cone} = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h$
Formula for the volume of a hemisphere: $V_{hemisphere} = \frac{2}{3}\pi r^3$
Step 2: Calculating the Volume of the Cone
Substitute $r = 1$ cm and $h = 1$ cm into the formula:
$V_{cone} = \frac{1}{3} \times \pi \times (1)^2 \times 1$
$V_{cone} = \frac{1}{3} \times \pi \times 1 \times 1$
$V_{cone} = \frac{\pi}{3} \text{ cm}^3$
Step 3: Calculating the Volume of the Hemisphere
Substitute $r = 1$ cm into the formula:
$V_{hemisphere} = \frac{2}{3} \times \pi \times (1)^3$
$V_{hemisphere} = \frac{2}{3} \times \pi \times 1$
$V_{hemisphere} = \frac{2\pi}{3} \text{ cm}^3$
Step 4: Calculating the Total Volume
$V_{total} = V_{cone} + V_{hemisphere}$
$V_{total} = \frac{\pi}{3} + \frac{2\pi}{3}$
$V_{total} = \frac{\pi + 2\pi}{3}$
$V_{total} = \frac{3\pi}{3}$
$V_{total} = \pi \text{ cm}^3$
Final Answer: The volume of the solid is $\pi \text{ cm}^3$.
