A cone of height 24cm and radius of base 6cm is made up of modelling clay. a child reshaped it inthe form of a sphere. Find the radius of the sphere.

Answer»

Given:\\\\<klux>CONE</klux>:\\h=24cm\\r=6cm\\Sphere:\\R=?\\\\Solution:\\

Volume of cone = Volume of sphere

\frac{1}{3}\pi  r^2h=\frac{4}{3} \pi R^3

It is because no extra clay is USED nor clay is added so the AMOUNT of clay will REMAIN constant and hence volume will be equal.

\frac{1}{3}\pi  *(6)^2*24=\frac{4}{3}\pi  R^3\\\\4R^3=36*24\\R^3=9*24\\R^3=216cm\\R=6cm

Hence, the radius of sphere of sphere is 6 cm.

Hope it helps u.....   :D
