A 3D modeler is designing a component of a castle in a video game. She places a cone on top of a cylinder so they line up and share the same radius. The cone and the cylinder share the same height. If the volume of the cone is 50 cm3 , what is the volume of the whole object?

Since the cone and the cylinder have the same height and radius, they can be combined into a single shape as a cylinder with a cone on top.

The volume of a cylinder is calculated by the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
The volume of a cone is calculated by the formula V = (1/3)πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.

Since the cone and the cylinder have the same radius and height, their combined volume is V = πr^2h + (1/3)πr^2h.

Substituting the given volume of the cone (50 cm^3), we have 50 = πr^2h/3 + πr^2h.

Notice that πr^2h is common to both terms on the right-hand side, so we can factor it out: 50 = πr^2h * (1/3 + 1).

Combining the two fractions on the right-hand side, we get 50 = πr^2h * (4/3).

To isolate the volume of the whole object, we divide by the combined fraction: V = 50 / (4π / 3).

We can simplify this by multiplying by the reciprocal of the fraction: V = 50 * (3 / 4π).

Simplifying further, V = 150 / 4π cm^3.

The volume of the whole object is approximately 11.96 cm^3.

Apologies for the mistake. Let's correct the solution.

The volume of the cone is given as 50 cm^3. The volume formula for a cone is V = (1/3)πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.

Let's assume the radius of the cone and the cylinder is r, and the height is h.

The volume of the cone is 50 cm^3, so we have the equation:

50 = (1/3)πr^2h

We also know that the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h.

The total volume of the object is the sum of the volumes of the cone and the cylinder:

Total Volume = Volume of Cone + Volume of Cylinder

Total Volume = (1/3)πr^2h + πr^2h

Total Volume = (1/3 + 1)πr^2h

Total Volume = (4/3)πr^2h

Therefore, the volume of the whole object is (4/3)πr^2h.

We cannot determine the exact volume of the whole object without knowing the values of r and h or any other additional information.
