  1. A spherical lead ball of radius 10cm is melted and small lead balls of radius 5mm are made. The total number of possible small lead balls is (Take π = 22/7)
    1. 8000
    2. 400
    3. 800
    4. 125
Correct Option: A

Volume of bigger ball =
4
πr³
3

=
4
π × 10 × 10 × 10 cu.cm.
3

Volume of smaller ball =
4
π(0.5)³
3

∴ Possible number of smaller balls =
4
π × 10 × 10 × 10 = 8000
3
4
π × 0.5 × 0.5 × 0.5
