The diameters of the internal and external surfaces of a hollow spherical shell are 6 cm and 10 cm respectively. If it is melted and recast into a solid cylinder of diameter 14 cm, find the height of the cylinder.

Internal radius of the hollow spherical shell = 6/2 = 3cm


And external radius of that shell = 10/2 = 5cm


Radius of the cylinder = 14/2 = 7


Let height of the cylinder be x cm


According to the question,


Volume of the cylinder = volume of the spherical shell






height of cylinder = cm
