The radius of cross-section of a solid cylindrical rod of iron is 50 cm. The cylinder is melted down and formed into 6 solid spherical balls of the same radius as that of the cylinder. The length of the rod (in metres) is
-
- 0.8
- 2
- 3
- 4
- 0.8
Correct Option: D
Let Length of rod = x cm
∴ Volume of cylinder = Volume of 6 spheres
| ⇒ πr²h = 6 × | πr³ | |
