  1. If a metallic cone of radius 30 cm and height 45 cm is melted and recast into metallic spheres of radius 5 cm, find the number of spheres.
    1. 81
    2. 41
    3. 80
    4. 40
Correct Option: A

Volume of metallic cone =
1
πr²h
3

=
1
π × 30 × 30 × 45 cu.cm
3

Volume of a sphere =
1
πR³
3

=
4
π × 5 × 5 × 5
3

∴ Required number of spheres =
1
π × 30 × 30 × 45 = 81

4
π × 5 × 5 × 5
