A cylindrical tub of radius 12 cm contains water to a depth of 20 cm. A spherical form ball is dropped into the tub and thus the level of water is raised by 6.75 cm. What is the radius of the ball?
Volume of a sphere = (4/3)πr3
Volume of a cylinder = πr2h
Volume of water displaced = Volume of the iron ball
Given, cylindrical tub of radius 12 cm contains water to a depth of 20 cm. A spherical form ball is dropped into the tub and thus the level of water is raised by 6.75 cm
⇒ r3 = 729
⇒ r = 9 cm
