Solution

First, we need to find the volume of the water in the cone. The formula for the volume of a cone is (1/3)πr²h, where r is the radius and h is the height.

So, the volume of the water in the cone is (1/3)π*(77 cm)²*(21 cm) = 166,924 cubic cm.

Next, we need to find the height of the water in the cylinder. The formula for the volume of a cylinder is πr²h. We know the volume of the water and the radius of the cylinder, so we can solve for the height.

So, 166,924 cubic cm = π*(77 cm)²*h.

Solving for h, we get h = 166,924 cubic cm / (π*(77 cm)²) = 7 cm.

So, the height of the water in the cylinder is 7 cm.
