The current volume of the water is 261.66 square inches.
Solution:
The container is in cone shape.
Radius of the container = 5 inch
Height of the container = 20 inch
Volume of the container = [tex]\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{1}{3}\times 3.14 \times 5^2 \times 20[/tex]
Volume of the container = 523.33 square inch
Current volume of the water = Half of the volume of container
[tex]$=\frac{1}{2}\times523.33[/tex]
= 261.66 square inch
The current volume of the water is 261.66 square inches.
