    A hollow spherical ball whose inner radius is 4 cm is fall of water. Half of the water is transferred to a conical cup and it completely filled the cup. If the height of the cup is 2 cm, then the radius of the base of cone, in cm is

    A) 4cm                            

    B)  \[6\frac{1}{2}cm\]

    C) 8cm                   

    D) 16cm

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Volume of water in hollow spherical ball \[=\pi rl.\] \[l=\sqrt{{{h}^{2}}+{{r}^{2}}}\] Half the water \[=\pi rl+\pi {{r}^{2}}=\pi r(l+r)\] Volume of cone \[\frac{1}{3}rd\] Hence, \[=\pi {{r}^{2}}h-\frac{1}{3}\pi {{r}^{2}}h=\frac{2}{3}\pi {{r}^{2}}h=\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{22}{7}\times 6\times 6\times 14\]or \[=1056c{{m}^{3}}.\]or \[=\frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}.\]or \[r=\frac{2}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}\]
