The formula for finding the volume of a cone is V = (1/3)πr^2h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cone.
Given that the diameter of the base is 2 cm, the radius would be 1 cm (half of the diameter).
Plugging in the values:
V = (1/3)π(1^2)(6)
V = (1/3)π(1)(6)
V = (1/3)π(6)
V = 2π(6) = 12π
Using π ≈ 3.14:
V ≈ 12 * 3.14 = 37.68 cubic centimeters
Therefore, the correct answer is:
D. 37.68 cubic centimeters
