MCQ
The number of solid sphere each 6cm in diameter, which can be moulded from a solid cylinder of height 45cm and diameter 4cm without any loss, is:
  • A
    5
  • B
    10
  • C
    7
  • D
    12

Answer

  1. 5

Solution:

Given, diameter of ball = 6cm and diameter of cylinder = 4cm

So, radius of ball, R = 3cm Radius of cylinder, r = 2cm

Let the number of balls be n

So, volume of n balls = volume of a cylinder

$\text{n}\times\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{R}^3=\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}$

$\text{n}\times\frac{4}{3}\times27=4\times45$

$\text{n}=\frac{4\times45}{4\times9}$

$\text{n}=5$
