For cylindrical vessel, Let height be H cm Radius (R) = 10 cm For conical vessel, Height (h) = 50 cm Radius (r) = 12 cm Since, contents in conical vessel are emptied into a cylindrical vessel, hence there volume will be same. ∴ Volume of cylinder = Volume of conical vessel Hence, height to which the liquid rises in the cylindrical vessel is 24 cm.
