Question

A sphere of diameter 12 cm is dropped in a right circular cylindrical vessel partly fi lled with water. The

diameter of the cylindrical vessel is 24 cm. If the sphere is completely submerged in water, by how much

will the level of water rise in the cylindrical vessel?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter of sphere=12 cm

Radius=6 cm

Diameter of vessel=24cm

Radius=12 cm

Let level of water rise in cylinder be x cm.

By the condition,

Volume of sphere will be equal to volume of cylindrical cylinder

Putting the values ,we get

4/3×Π×6^3 =Π×12^2 ×x

x=(4×6×6×6)/(3×12×12)

x=2 cm

Hope it will help you...
