Question
How many lead balls of radii 1 cm each can be made from a sphere of 8 cm radius?
Advertisements
Solution
Volume of sphere = `4/3pir^3`
Volume of sphere = `4/3pi8^3`
= `4/3pi512`
= `682.6667pi`
Volume of lead ball = `4/3pi1^3`
= `1.333333pi`
No. of lead balls that can be made = `(682.6667pi)/(1.333333pi) = 512`
No. of lead balls that can be made = 512
