Find the amount of empty space within a cylinder containing three solid spheres, where each sphere has a radius of 3 cm. (Volume of a sphere =4/3πr^3)

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

cylinder's height=3×(diameter of sphere)=3×6=18 cm

radius of cylinder=3 cm

volume of cylinder=π r²h=π(3)²×18=162 π cm³

volume of sphere=4/3 π(3)³=36 π cm³

reqd. empty space=162 π-3×36π=54 πcm³

The amount of empty space within a cylinder containing three solid spheres would be 54 πcm³.

What is the volume of a right circular cylinder?

Suppose that the radius of considered right circular cylinder be 'r' units.

And let its height be 'h' units.

Then, its volume is given as:

[tex]V = \pi r^2 h \: \rm unit^3[/tex]

Each sphere has a radius of 3 cm

We can assume the cylinder height to the 3 times the diameter of the sphere.

The cylinder's height = 3 × (the diameter of the sphere)

                                   = 3 × 6 =18 cm

The radius of cylinder = 3 cm

The volume of cylinder = π r²h

                                       = π(3)² × 18

                                       = 162 π cm³

The volume of sphere = 4/3 π(3)³

                                     =36 π cm³

The amount of empty space within a cylinder containing three solid spheres,

= 162 π - 3 × 36π

= 54 πcm³
