A cone of radius 9cm and height 12 cm is full of water. A sphere which exactly
fits and touches the sides of the cone is immersed in it. Find: [4]
(i) the radius of the sphere.
(ii) the fraction of the water that overflows

The radius of the sphere is 4.5 cm
The fraction of the water that overflows is 3:8
Step-by-step explanation:
radius of a conical vessel (R) = 9 cm
height of the conical vessel (H) = 12 cm
volume of the conical vessel =
=
= cm³
let the radius of the sphere be r cm'
in right triangle PO'R
using pythagoras
l² = r²+h²
l = 15 cm
hence
...(1)
in triangle MRO
3(12-r) = 5r
36- 3r = 5r
36 = 8r
r = 4.5 cm
hence, the radius of the sphere is 4.5 cm
volume of sphere =
=
= cm³
volume of water = volume of cone
clearly , volume of water that flows out of cone is same as the volume of the sphere
i.e ,
fraction of water that flows out =
=
=
=
hence , the radius of the sphere is 4.5 cm
the fraction of the water that overflows is 3:8
