12 spheres of the same size are made from melting a solid cylinder of 16 cm diameter and 2 cm height. The diameter of each sphere is

(a) $\sqrt{3}$ cm

(b) 2 cm

(c) 3 cm

(d) 4 cm

Open in App

Solution

The volume of solid cylinder = 12 × volume of one sphere

The required diameter d = 2 × 2 = 4 cm

Hence, the correct answer is choice (d).
