  • Question
  • A cylindrical vessel 60 cm in diameter is partially filled with water. A sphere 60 cm in diameter is gently dropped into the vessel. To what further height will water rise in the cylinder?


  • Options
  • A. 15 cm
  • B. 30 cm
  • C. 40 cm
  • D. 25 cm

  • Correct Answer
  • 40 cm 

    Explanation

    Let h and H be the height of water level before and after the dropping of the sphere.
    Then, [? x (30)2 x H ] - [? x (30)2 x h ]
    = 4/3 ? x (30)3
    ? ? x 900 x (H -h) = 4/3 ? x 27000
    ? (H- h) = 40 cm
