Spherical marbles of diameter 1.4 cm are dropped into beaker containing some water and are fully submerged. The diameter of the beaker is 7 cm. Find how many marbles have been dropped in it if the water rises by 5.6 cm ?
Diameter of marble = 1.4 cm
radius = 1.4/2 = 0.7 cm
volume of 1 marble =
let number of marbles required = n
base diameter of beaker = 7cm
radius = 7/2 = 3.5 cm
height rise in water = 5.6 cm
volume change = volume of n marbles
