Question

How many balls each of radius 1 cm can be extracted from a Solid sphere of radius 8 cm? 1 512 16 64 8

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

A solid sphere of radius, R = 8 cm

With this sphere, we have to make spherical balls of radius r = 1 cm

Let’s assume that the number of balls made as n

Then, we know that

Volume of the sphere = 4/3 πr3

The volume of the solid sphere = sum of the volumes of n spherical balls.

n x 4/3 πr3 = 4/3 πR3

n x 4/3 π(1)3 = 4/3 π(8)3

n = 83 = 512

Therefore, 512 balls can be made of radius 1 cm each with a solid sphere of radius 8 cm.
