SOLUTION: A drop of water is spherical and 1/10 in. in diameter. Calculate depth of a hollow cylinder, base is 1/2 in. radius, 1000 drops fill. Vol. of sphere

SOLUTION: A drop of water is spherical and 1/10 in. in diameter. Calculate depth of a hollow cylinder, base is 1/2 in. radius, 1000 drops fill. Vol. of sphere - 4/3 * 22/7 * r^3. Vol.

Question 1104975: A drop of water is spherical and 1/10 in. in diameter. Calculate depth of a hollow cylinder, base is 1/2 in. radius, 1000 drops fill.
Vol. of sphere - 4/3 * 22/7 * r^3.
Vol. of hollow cylinder - pi/144 L(R^2 - r^2)cu. ft.

Note, for the diameter of , the radius will be half this, so .

One drop

, cubic inches

1000 of these drops

, cubic inches

How high, in a cylinder of radius inch?
Let h be how high in this cylinder.
You already calculated the volume value.

You just need to finish, solve for h.
