The volume of water completely filled the hemisphere of radius 44cm.

Volume of hemisphere is given by (2/3) * π * r^3.

Hence, volume of water = volume of hemisphere = (2/3) * 3.142 * (44)^3 = 178,432 cm^3 = 178.43 litres.

As 50 litres of water filled up the whole cylinder of radius 44cm, 50,000 cm^3 = Volume of cylinder.

Volume of cylinder is equal to base area of the cylinder multiplied by its vertical height.

Base area of cylinder = π * r^2 = 3.142 * (44)^2 = 6082.912cm^2

Hence the height of the cylinder = 50,000 / 6082.912 = 8.22cm.
