MCQ
A metallic solid sphere of radius $9\ cm$ is melted to form a solid linder of radius $9\ cm$. The height of the cylin er is :
  • $12\ cm$
  • B
    $18\ cm$
  • C
    $36\ cm$
  • D
    $96\ cm$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$12\ cm$
The metallic solid sphere is melted to from a solid cylinder.
Let the height of the cylinder be $h$.
So, volume of the sphere $=$ volume of the cylinder
$\Rightarrow\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}_1^3=\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{4}{3}\text{r}_1=\text{h}$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=\frac{4}{3}\times9=12\text{ cm}$
