A cylindrical tub of radius 12 cm contains water to a depth of 20 cm. A spherical ball is dropped into the tub and the level of the water is raised by 6.75 cm. Find the radius of the ball.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts


Increase in volume of water is solely attributed to the volume of the ball
`pir^2/_\h=4/3pir^3`
`12^2(6.75)=4/3r^3`
`r=9cm`
