A glass bowl in the shape of a sphere having a radius of 4 cm is filled with water to a depth of 3 cm. If the water flows out through a small hole in the bottom so that the level drops 2 cm,how much water has escaped? \n" ); document.write( "----------- \n" ); document.write( "Find the volume at a level of 3 cm, then subtract the volume at a level of 1 cm. \n" ); document.write( "========= \n" ); document.write( "There's a formula for the volume at a given level. We use it at work. I don't have it here, but I can get it tomorrow from an old CRC book. \n" ); document.write( "You might find it online, too. \n" ); document.write( "======== \n" ); document.write( "I could derive it, or do it by integration, but ... \n" ); document.write( "============================ \n" ); document.write( "h = depth of the liquid, r = raidus = 4 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Vol = \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
