Question

A hemisphere of load of radius 6 cm is cast into a right circular cone of height 76 cm . The radius of the  base of the  cone is  :


Options:
A .  1.4 cm
B .  2 cm
C .  2.4 cm
D .  4.2 cm
Answer: Option C

Let the radius of the cone be R cm . Then ,

`1/3 pi xx R^2 xx 75 = 2/3 pi xx 6  xx 6 xx 6 xx 6`

`hArr   R^2 = ((2 xx 6 xx 6 xx 6)/(75)) = (144/25)`

`hArr  R^2 = (12/5)^2`

`hArr R = 12/5` cm = 2.4 cm.
