  • Question
  • Find the number of lead balls of diameter 2 cm each, that can be made from a sphere of diameter 16 cm.?


  • Options
  • A. 2048
  • B. 2055
  • C. 2058
  • D. None of the above

  • Correct Answer
  • None of the above 

    Explanation

    Radius of the sphere = 16/2 = 8 cm
    Volume of the sphere = (4/3) x ? x 8 x 8 x 8 cm3
    Radius of each lead ball = 2/2 = 1 cm
    Volume of each lead ball = Volume of sphere / Volume of lead ball
    = (4/3) ? x 1 x 1 x 1 = 4?/3 cm3
    ? Number of lead balls = [(4/3) x ? x 8 x 8 x 8 x 3] / [4 ?]
    = 8 x 8 x 8 = 512
