(A) True.
The actual capacity of a vessel is defined as the total volume of the empty space inside it that can be filled with a substance. In the given figure,a hemispherical depression is carved out from the base of the cylinder. Therefore,the volume of the space available inside the vessel is the volume of the cylinder minus the volume of the hemisphere.
