A solid metallic spherical ball of radius 4 cm recast into three solid metallic spherical balls whose radii are 2 cm, 3 cm and x cm, find the value of x.
A solid metallic spherical ball of radius 4 cm recast into three solid metallic spherical balls whose radii are 2 cm, 3 cm and x cm, find the value of x. Correct Answer ∛29
As we know,
Volume of sphere = (4/3) × π r3
Radius of bigger ball R = 4
Volume of bigger ball = (4/3) × π × 43
Radius of smaller balls is 2 cm, 3 cm and x cm.
Volume of all three smaller balls = (4/3) × π × (23 + 33 + x3)
According to the question
Volume of bigger ball = Volume of all three smaller balls
⇒ (4/3) × π × 43 = (4/3) × π × (23 + 33 + x3)
⇒ 64 = 8 + 27 + x3
⇒ x3 = 64 – 35 = 29
⇒ x = ∛29
