Math, asked by abcDeFgHgas, 1 year ago

Marbles of diameter 1.4 cm are dropped into a beaker containing some water and are fully submerged. The diameter of the beaker is 7 cm. Find how many have been dropped in it, if water rises be 56 cm.

Answer is 15.

Please explain me how to do it, and please also explain the question, with a complete written systematic solution if you can, and be as detailed as possible. If you are solving this let me know, because this might take you a while. Is this question wrong, maybe?

Thank You So Much! I really appreciate the help of whoever contribute!

n *  a = b
where n is the number of marbles, a is the Volume of marbles(sphere) and b is volume of beaker(cylinder)

n = b/a

a = volume of sphere

r = diameter/2 = 1.4/2 = 0.7 cm

= \frac{4}{3} πr³
= \frac{4}{3}  \frac{22}{7} * 0.7³
=1.437 cm³

b = volume of cylinder

r = 7/2 = 3.5 cm
h = 56 cm

= πr²h
= \frac{22}{7} * 3.5² * 56
=2156 cm³

n = b/a

n  = 2156 / 1.437 = 1500 spheres

abcDeFgHgas: A Thousand Thanks To You! You did clear some of my doubts, specially with the formulas.
Your answer is 1500 spheres/marbles but the answer given with the question is 15, so does this mean that the question (or answer given) is incorrect? Can you be completely sure? Thanks a lot again!
keerthika1998lekha: welcome.please mark as best
keerthika1998lekha: the answer is surely 1500 and not 15
abcDeFgHgas: Thank You So Much Ms. Keerthika! As I'm a bit new to brainly, how do I mark an answer as best? I've rated it 5 Stars, does doing that do it?
keerthika1998lekha: firstly to pick and an answer as best you need two answers for a single question.So wait until another one answer.Thnks
