A conical vessel with base radius 10 cm. contains some water in it. The water level in the vessel is 18 cm high. It is pored into another cylindrical vessel with radius 5 cm. Find the water level in the cylindrical vessel.

Answer»

Base radius of conical vessel (R) = 10 cm

And the height (H) = 18 cm

Volume of conical vessel = \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 }\)πR2H

\(\frac { 1 }{ 3 }\) × π × (10)2 × 18

= π ×100 × 6

= 600 π cm3

Let the water lavel in the cylindrical vessel be h.

Radius (r) = 5 cm.

Now according to the problem

Volume of water in the cylindrical vessel = Volume of water in conical vessel

πr2h = 600 π

or r2h = 600

⇒ (5)2h = 600

⇒ 25 h = 600

h = \(\frac { 600 }{ 25 }\)

= 24 cm

Hence the water level in the cylindrical vessel = 24 cm.
