Question: A soup bowl has a diameter of 10 cm and a height of 15 cm. What is the volume of the soup in the bowl if 0.5 cm of space is left at the top of the can to allow for expansion?

Solution: Acc to the questoin,

Diameter = 10cm; radius = 5 cm.

Height of the container = 15cm.

Height of the occupied soup level = 15 - 0.5 = 14.5 cm.

Volume of the soup = $\pi r^{2} h$ where $\pi$ = 22/7; r=radius and h=height.

Therefore, Volume = 22/7 * $5^{2}$ * 14.5 = 1139.28 $cm^{3}$ [Ans]
