Question

Because of a record corn harvest, excess corn is stored on the ground in a pile. The pile is shaped like a cone. The height of the pile is 25 ft, and the radius of the pile is 1.2 × 10 2 f t. Use the formula V = 1 3 π r 2 h to find the volume. Fill in the blanks provided below to represent your answer using 2 significant figures.
I need help please

Answer 1

Answer:

$V=3141.59\ \text{feet}^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The height of the pile, h = 25 feet

The radius of the pile, $r=1.2\times 10^2\ ft$

We need to find the volume of the pile of cone. The formula for the volume of a cone is given by :

$V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2h\\\\V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi \times (1.2\times 10^2)\times 25\\\\V=3141.59\ \text{feet}^3$

So, the required volume of the pile is $3141.59\ \text{feet}^3$.
