A cylindrical rod whose height is 8 times of its radius is melted and recast into spherical balls of same radius. The number of the balls will be

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let the number of balls be `n`.
Given that cylindrical rod whose height is 8 times of its radius i.e., `h=8r`
Volume of the cylinder `=nxx` Volume of the sphere
`pir^2h=nxx4/3pir^3`
`pir^2xx8r=nxx4/3pir^3`
`n=6`
