Answer:
number of cone to be formed = 378cones
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
A solid metallic sphere of diameter 21cm is melted and recast into a number of smaller cones, each of diameter 3.5cm and height 3cm.
To find:
The number of cone formed.
Explanation:
Let the number of cone formed be R.
We have,
The sphere of diameter= 21cm
∴Radius of the sphere=
We know that formula of the volume of sphere:
Volume of sphere=
Volume of sphere=
Volume of sphere=
Volume of sphere= (11×21×21)cm³
Volume of sphere= 4851cm³.
Now,
Given, diameter of cone= 3.5cm
∴Radius of the cone=
Radius of the cone=
- Height of the cone= 3cm
Formula of the volume of cone: [cubic unit]
Volume of the cone=
Volume of the cone=
Volume of the cone=
According to the question:
⇒ R × volume of cone= volume of sphere
⇒ R×
⇒ R=
⇒ R=
⇒ R= (31.5× 16) cone
⇒ R= 504 cone.
Thus,
The number of cone so formed is 504.
