    B) 7 cm

    C) 14 cm

    D) 28 cm

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Let radius of the sphere \[=r\,cm\] Then, \[\frac{4}{3}\,\pi {{r}^{3}}=21\times 77\times 24\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{r}^{3}}=21\times 77\times 24\times \frac{3}{4}\times \frac{7}{22}\] \[{{r}^{3}}=9261\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[r=21\,cm\]
