 According to the question,1 πr²h = 4 πr³ 3 3 
 ⇒ h = 4r = 4 × 5 = 20 cm.Correct Option: CVolume of sphere = 4 πr³ 3 Volume of cone = 1 πr²h 3 
 According to the question,1 πr²h = 4 πr³ 3 3 
 ⇒ h = 4r = 4 × 5 = 20 cm.

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Volume of sand = Volume of cylindrical vessel = πr²h 
 = π × (18)² × 32 cu.cm.
 Volume of conical heap = π × 18 × 18 × 32⇒ 1 πR²H = × π × 18 × 18 × 32 3 ⇒ 1 × R² × 24 = 18 × 18 × 32 3 ⇒ R² = 18 × 18 × 32 × 3 = 1296 24 
 ⇒ R = √1296 = 36 cm.Correct Option: CVolume of sand = Volume of cylindrical vessel = πr²h 
 = π × (18)² × 32 cu.cm.
 Volume of conical heap = π × 18 × 18 × 32⇒ 1 πR²H = × π × 18 × 18 × 32 3 ⇒ 1 × R² × 24 = 18 × 18 × 32 3 ⇒ R² = 18 × 18 × 32 × 3 = 1296 24 
 ⇒ R = √1296 = 36 cm.
