To calculate the volume of the two parts into which the cone is divided by a plane parallel to the base, we need to determine the height at which the plane cuts the cone.
First, we need to find the radius and height of the cone. Since the volume is given in liters, we need to convert it to cubic centimeters (cc) since the formula for the volume of a cone is typically given in cc.
1 liter = 1000 cc
Therefore, the volume of the cone is 5 liters = 5000 cc.
The formula for the volume of a cone is V = (1/3)πr^2h, where V is the volume, r is the radius, and h is the height.
Given that the volume is 5000 cc, we have:
5000 = (1/3)πr^2h
To find the radius, we need more information. If you have the slant height (l) or the height (h) of the cone, we can use different formulas to calculate the radius.
If you can provide the slant height or height of the cone, I can further assist you in calculating the volume of the two parts.
