Answer:
The radius of the spherical ball is 9 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Radius of a cylindrical tube (R) =12 cm
Level of water raised in the cylindrical tube (h) = 6.75 cm
Let ‘r’ be the radius of the spherical ball.
Volume of water raised in the cylindrical tube is equal to the volume of spherical ball.
Volume of water raised in the cylindrical tube = Volume of spherical ball
πR²h = 4/3πr³
R²h = 4/3r³
12² × 6.75 = 4/3 r³
r³ = (12 × 12 × 6.75 × 3) / 4
r³ = (3 × 12 × 6.75 × 3)
r³ = 729
r = ³√729 = 9
r = 9 cm
Hence, The radius of the spherical ball is 9 cm.
