The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the total number of spherical bullets that can be made from a rectangular block of lead, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the volume of the rectangular block of lead. The dimensions of the rectangular block are given as: - Length = 11 meters - Breadth = 10 meters - Height = 5 meters To find the volume \( V \) of the rectangular block, we use the formula: \[ V = \text{Length} \times \text{Breadth} \times \text{Height} \] Substituting the values: \[ V = 11 \, \text{m} \times 10 \, \text{m} \times 5 \, \text{m} = 550 \, \text{m}^3 \] ### Step 2: Convert the volume from cubic meters to cubic decimeters. Since 1 cubic meter is equal to 1000 cubic decimeters, we convert the volume: \[ V = 550 \, \text{m}^3 \times 1000 \, \text{dm}^3/\text{m}^3 = 550000 \, \text{dm}^3 \] ### Step 3: Calculate the volume of one spherical bullet. The diameter of each bullet is given as 5 decimeters, so the radius \( r \) is: \[ r = \frac{\text{Diameter}}{2} = \frac{5 \, \text{dm}}{2} = 2.5 \, \text{dm} \] The volume \( V_b \) of one spherical bullet is given by the formula: \[ V_b = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \] Substituting the radius: \[ V_b = \frac{4}{3} \pi (2.5 \, \text{dm})^3 \] Calculating \( (2.5)^3 \): \[ (2.5)^3 = 15.625 \, \text{dm}^3 \] Now substituting back: \[ V_b = \frac{4}{3} \pi \times 15.625 \] Using \( \pi \approx 3 \): \[ V_b \approx \frac{4}{3} \times 3 \times 15.625 = 4 \times 15.625 = 62.5 \, \text{dm}^3 \] ### Step 4: Calculate the total number of spherical bullets. To find the total number of bullets \( n \), we divide the total volume of the rectangular block by the volume of one bullet: \[ n = \frac{\text{Total Volume of Block}}{\text{Volume of One Bullet}} = \frac{550000 \, \text{dm}^3}{62.5 \, \text{dm}^3} \] Calculating \( n \): \[ n = \frac{550000}{62.5} = 8800 \] ### Final Answer: The total number of spherical bullets that can be made is **8800**. ---
