..
volume of the cylinder = pi*r^2*h . r=7
volume of water per cm
=pi*7^2*1
= 154 cu.cm
The increase in height = 2.8 cm
the volume increase= 154*2.8= 431.2 cu. cm.
..
The displaced water is the volume of the 1000 lead shots.
so volume of one shot = 431.2/1000
= 0.431 cu. cm.
..
Volume of lead shot = 0.431
volume = 4/3 *pi*r^3
0.431*3/4*pi= r^3
r^3= 0.1029
r= cube root (0.1029)
r=0.47 cm
