Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : 48 Given: Diameter of the each sphere = 3 cm Diameter of the solid metal cylinder = 4 cm Height of the solid metal cylinder = 54 cm Concept used: Volume of spherical ball = 4/3 × π × r3 Volume of cylinder = π × r2 × h Number of small balls (n) = (Volume of cylinder)/(Volume of sphere) Calculation: Let the number of solid spheres be n. Radius of the each sphere = 3/2 cm Radius of the solid metal cylinder = 4/2 = 2 cm Volume of each sphere = (4/3) × π × (3/2)3 ⇒ π × (4/3) × (27/8) ⇒ 9π/2 cm3 Volume the solid metal cylinder = π × (2)2 × 54 = 216π cm3 n = 216π/(9π/2) ⇒ n = 48 ∴ The number of solid spheres is 48. |
