प्रश्न
A metallic cylinder has a radius of 3 cm and a height of 5 cm. It is made of metal A. To reduce its weight, a conical hole is drilled in the cylinder, as shown and it is completely filled with a lighter metal B. The conical hole has a radius of `3/2` cm and its depth is `8/9` cm. Calculate the ratio of the volume of the metal A to the volume of metal B in the solid.

उत्तर
Volume of metal A = Volume of the cylinder - Volume of the cone
= `π (3)^2 x 5 - 1/3 π (3/2)^2 8/9`
= `π ( 45 - 2/3)`
= `133/3` π cm3
Volume of metal B = Volume of the conical cavity
= `1/3 xx (3/2)^2 . 8/9 = 2/3 π`
Hence, the ratio of the volume of metal A to the volume of metal B.
= `(133/3 π)/(2/3 π)`
= `133/2` or 133 : 2
= 66.5 or 66 : 1
