Step-by-step solution

5 steps
  1. Identify the dimensions of the conical container.

    The base radius of the conical container is rc=21 cmr_c = 21 \text{ cm}.
    The height of the conical container is hc=30 cmh_c = 30 \text{ cm}.

  2. Calculate the volume of water in the conical container.

    The formula for the volume of a cone is Vc=13πrc2hcV_c = \frac{1}{3}\pi r_c^2 h_c.

    Vc=13×π×(21 cm)2×30 cmV_c = \frac{1}{3} \times \pi \times (21 \text{ cm})^2 \times 30 \text{ cm} Vc=13×π×441 cm2×30 cmV_c = \frac{1}{3} \times \pi \times 441 \text{ cm}^2 \times 30 \text{ cm} Vc=π×441 cm2×10 cmV_c = \pi \times 441 \text{ cm}^2 \times 10 \text{ cm} Vc=4410π cm3V_c = 4410\pi \text{ cm}^3
  3. Identify the dimensions of the cylindrical container.

    The radius of the cylindrical container is rcyl=7 cmr_{cyl} = 7 \text{ cm}.
    Let the depth of water in the cylinder be hcylh_{cyl}.

  4. Equate the volume of water from the cone to the volume of water in the cylinder.

    When the water from the cone is emptied into the cylinder, the volume of water remains the same.
    The formula for the volume of water in the cylinder is Vcyl=πrcyl2hcylV_{cyl} = \pi r_{cyl}^2 h_{cyl}.
    So, Vcyl=VcV_{cyl} = V_c.

    πrcyl2hcyl=4410π cm3\pi r_{cyl}^2 h_{cyl} = 4410\pi \text{ cm}^3
  5. Substitute the cylinder's radius and solve for the depth of water (hcylh_{cyl}).

    π×(7 cm)2×hcyl=4410π cm3\pi \times (7 \text{ cm})^2 \times h_{cyl} = 4410\pi \text{ cm}^3 π×49 cm2×hcyl=4410π cm3\pi \times 49 \text{ cm}^2 \times h_{cyl} = 4410\pi \text{ cm}^3

    Divide both sides by π\pi:

    49 cm2×hcyl=4410 cm349 \text{ cm}^2 \times h_{cyl} = 4410 \text{ cm}^3 hcyl=4410 cm349 cm2h_{cyl} = \frac{4410 \text{ cm}^3}{49 \text{ cm}^2} hcyl=90 cmh_{cyl} = 90 \text{ cm}

    The depth of water in the cylinder is 90 cm\textbf{90 cm}.
