Two mtallic right circular cones hacing heights 4.1 cm and 4.3 cm. The radii of their bases 2.1 cm each have been melted togeter to form a sphere. Find the diameter of the sphere.
Answers
Answer :
Diameter of sphere is 4.2 cm
step by step Explanation
r1 = 2.1 cm , h1 = 4.1 cm
r2 = 2.1 cm , h2 = 4.3 cm
V1 = (1/3) ×pi×r^2×h = (1/3)×3.14×(2.1)^2×4.1 = 18.92 cm^2
V2 = (1/3) ×pi×r^2×h = (1/3)×3.14×(2.1)^2×4.3= 19.83 cm^2
V1+V2 = volume of sphere = 18.92 + 19.83 cm^2 = 38.92 cm^2
=> (4/3)×(pi)×r^3 = 38.92 cm^2
=> (4/3) × 3.14 × r^3 = 38.92
=> r = 2.1 cm
d = 2r = 2(2.1) = 4.2 cm^2
GIVEN :-
- Heights of the two metallic right circular cones are 4.1 cm and 4.3 cm
- Radius of the those two right circular cones is 2.1 cm
- The two metallic right circular cones melted and recast into a sphere.
TO FIND :-
- The diameter of the sphere
SOLUTION :-
Volume of a cone is given by ,
Height of the first cone (h₁) = 4.1 cm
Radius of the first cone (r₁) = 2.1 cm
Now , Let us find the volume of the first right circular cone.
By substituting the values we have ,
Now
Height of the second cone (h₂) = 4.3 cm
Radius of the second cone (r₂) = 2.1 cm
Now , Volume of second cone is ,
The sum of the Volumes of first cone (v₁) and second cone (v₂) becomes the volume of the sphere (vₛ)
Volume of the sphere is given by ,
Now the relation between radius and diameter is given by ,
