Practicing Success
A 36 cm long, 22 cm broad, and 49 cm high cuboid is melted and moulded into a solid sphere. What will be the radius of this sphere? [Use π = $\frac{22}{7}$] |
21 cm 7 cm 49 cm 22 cm |
21 cm |
We know that, Volume of cuboid = lbh Volume of sphere = \(\frac{4}{3}\)πr3 We have, Length of the cuboid = 36 cm Breadth = 22 cm Height = 49 cm According to the question, lbh = \(\frac{4}{3}\)πr3 (\(\frac{4}{3}\)) × (\(\frac{22}{7}\)) × r3 = 36 × 22 × 49 = r3 = (27 × 49 × 7) = r = 21 |
