If the radius of a sphere is increased by 10%, then its volume will increase by: |
10% 11.1% 33.1% 12.1% |
33.1% |
Volume of sphere = \(\frac{4}{3}\)πr³ 10% = \(\frac{1}{10}\) old new Radius 10 : 11 Radius 10 : 11 Radius 10 : 11 ----------------------------------------- 10³ : 11³ 1000 : 1331 Percentage increase in volume = \(\frac{1331 - 1000}{1000}\) × 100% = \(\frac{331}{1000}\) × 100% = 33.1% The correct answer is Option (3) → 33.1% |
