The diameters of the two circular ends of the bucket are 44 cm and 24 cm. The height of the bucket is 35 cm. The capacity of the bucket is

Clearly, the given bucket is in the form of frustum of a cone.


And we know



Where, h = height, r1 and r2 are radii (r1 > r2)


For given bucket,


Diameter of top = 44 cm


Radius of top, r1 = 22 cm


[as radius = 1/2 diameter]


Diameter of bottom = 24 cm


Radius of bottom, r2 = 12 cm


[as radius = 1/2 diameter]


height, h = 35 cm


Therefore,




= 32706.67 cm3


As,



32706.67 cm3 = 32.7 L [appx]


So, The volume of bucket is 32.7 L.
