Question


Metallic spheres of radii 6cm, 8cm and 10cm, respectively are melted to form a single solid sphere. The radius of the resulting sphere(in cm) is 


___
Options:
Answer: Option A
:

Radius of first Sphere = r1=6cm


Radius of second Sphere = r2=8cm


Radius of third Sphere = r3=10cm
Let radius of resulting sphere = r cm 
According to given condition, we have 
Volume of 1st sphere + Volume of 2nd sphere + Volume of 3rd sphere = Volume of resulting sphere  
43.π.(r1)3+43.π.(r2)3+43.π.(r3)3=43.π.r3 


43((r1)3+(r2)3+(r3)3)=43.r3 


(63+83+(10)3)=r3 


( 216 + 512 + 1000 ) = r3 


 r3 = 1728


r = 12 cm
