  • Question
  • A hemispherical basin of 150 cm diameter holds water 120 times as much as a cylindrical tube. If the height of the tube is 15 cm, then the diameter of the tube is?


  • Options
  • A. 27 cm
  • B. 24 cm
  • C. 25 cm
  • D. 26 cm

  • Correct Answer
  • 25 cm 

    Explanation

    Given, diameter = 150 cm
    ? r = 150/2 cm
    According to the question,
    2/3? (150/2)3 = 120 ?r2 x 15
    ? (2/3) x 150 x 150 x 150 / 8 = 120 x 15 x r2
    ? r2 = (150 x 150 x 150) / (12 x 120 x 5)
    ? r2 = 625/4
    ? r = ?625/4 = 25/2
    ? Diameter = 2r = 2 x 25/2 = 25 cm
