If a hollow sphere of internal and external diameters 4 cm and 8 cm respectively melted into a cone of base diameter 8 cm, then find the height of the cone.

Answer»

Volume of a sphere = \(\frac{4}{3}\)πr3 

Volume of a right circular cone = \(\frac{1}{3}\)πr2

Given, 

diameter of the internal and external surfaces of a hollow spherical shell are 4 cm and 8 cm respectively. It is melted into a cone of base diameter 8 cm.

⇒ Volume of material in sphere = Volume of the cone

⇒ \(\frac{4}{3}\) x π x (43 - 23) =\(\frac{1}{3}\)π x 4x h 

⇒ h = 14 cm
