A hollow sphere of internal and external diameters 6 cm and 10 cm respectively is melted into a right circular cone of diameter 8 cm. The height of the cone is
-
- 22.5 cm
- 23.5 cm
- 24.5 cm
- 25.5 cm
- 22.5 cm
Correct Option: C
Volume of material of hollow sphere = | π (r1³ - r2³) | |
3 |
= | π (5³ - 3³) | |
3 |
= | π (125 - 27) | |
3 |
= | π × 98 cu.cm. | |
3 |
Volume of cone = | πr²h | |
3 |
= | π × 4² × h | |
3 |
∴ | π × 16 × h = | × π × 98 | ||
3 | 3 |
⇒4h = 98
⇒ h = | = 24.5 cm. | |
