Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

Volume of a cone = \(\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h\)

r = 4\(\frac{1}{2}\) cm; h = 14 cm

Volume of cone = \(\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times \frac{9}{2} \times \frac{9}{2} \times 14\)

= 297 cm\(^3\)

When half- filled, the volume of the water = \(\frac{297}{2} = 148.5 cm^3\)
