Two iron sheets each of diameter 6 cm are immersed in the water contained in a cylindrical vessel of radius 6 cm. The level of the water in the vessel will be raised by
-
- 1 cm
- 2 cm
- 3 cm
- 6 cm
- 1 cm
Correct Option: B
When the two iron sheets are immersed in water, it will displace water equal to its volume. Let the water be raised in the vessel by x cm.
= 2 × | × π × (3)³ = π × (6)² × x | |
3 |
⇒ 72π = 36 px
⇒ x = | = 2 cm | |
36 |
