The (3/4)th part of a conical vessel of internal radius 5 cm and height 24 cm is full of water. The water is emptied into a cylindrical vessel with internal radius 10 cm. Find the height of water in cylindrical vessel.(CBSE 2017)
Radius of cone = r = 5 cm
Height of cone = h = 24 cm
Volume of cone = (1/3)πr2h
= (1/3) × π × 25 × 24
= 200π cm3
3/4th volume of cone = 3/4 × 200π = 150π cm3
∴ Volume of water in cone = 150 cm3
Radius of cylindrical vessel = R =10 cm
Let height of the cylindrical vessel = H (say)
Volume of water = Volume of cylindrical vessel = πr2h
∴ πR2H = 150π
⇒ R2H = 150
⇒ (10)2H = 150
⇒ 100H = 150
⇒ H = 150/100 = 1.5 cm
∴ Height of the cylindrical vessel = 1.5 cm
