Higher June 2022 Paper 2 Q13
13 Outside a cafe there is a large plastic ice cream cornet.
The cornet is a hemisphere on top of a cone.

The cone and the hemisphere each have radius 24 cm
The cone has perpendicular height 117 cm
| Volume of a cone \(= \dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h\) \(r\) is the radius \(h\) is the perpendicular height | Volume of a hemisphere \(= \dfrac{2}{3}\pi r^3\) \(r\) is the radius |
(a) Work out the total volume of the cornet. [4 marks]
(b) The actual cornets that the cafe sells are similar to the plastic one.
For the actual cornets, the cone and the hemisphere each have radius 2 cm
How many times greater is the volume of the plastic cornet than an actual cornet? [3 marks]

| \(\dfrac{1}{3} \times \pi \times 24^2 \times 117\) or \(\dfrac{2}{3} \times \pi \times 24^3\) | M1 | oe eg \(\dfrac{1}{3}\pi \times 576 \times 117\) or \(\dfrac{2}{3}\pi \times 13\,824\) |
| \(22\,464\pi\) or [70 536, 70 582] or \(9216\pi\) or [28 938, 28 957] | A1 | may be seen in a sum implied by final A1 |
| \(\dfrac{1}{3} \times \pi \times 24^2 \times 117 + \dfrac{2}{3} \times \pi \times 24^3\) or \(22\,464\pi + 9216\pi\) or [70 536, 70 582] + [28 938, 28 957] | M1dep | oe |
| \(31\,680\pi\) or [99 474, 99 539] | A1 |
Additional guidance
| \(\pi\) may be seen as any value in the interval [3.14, 3.142] | |
| Do not allow any misreads of formulae unless recovered eg \(\pi \times 24^2 \times 117\) and \(\dfrac{2}{3} \times \pi \times 24^2\) | M0 |
| Allow dots for multiplication | |
| For A marks allow eg \(22\,464 \times \pi\) or \(\pi \times 31\,680\) | |

| \(\dfrac{1}{3} \times \pi \times 24^2 \times 117 = 4725 \qquad \dfrac{2}{3} \times \pi \times 24^3 = 28\,952\) \(4725 + 28\,952\) (even though 4725 is wrong the method for \(\dfrac{1}{3} \times \pi \times 24^2 \times 117\) is seen) | M1A1 M1 |

| Alts 2, 3 and 4 Allow if an incorrect volume formula from (a) is used in (b) eg Alt 4 (a) \(\dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{2}{3} \times \pi \times 24^3 = 4608\pi\) (b) \(\dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{2}{3} \times \pi \times 2^3 = \dfrac{8}{3}\pi\) \(4608\pi \div \dfrac{8}{3}\pi\) 1728 | M2 A1 |

| Alt 4 Allow \(\dfrac{16}{3}\) rounded to 1dp or better eg allow 5.3 | |
| Alts 2 and 3 2nd M1 – allow consistent omission of \(\pi\) | |
