Question 16

Mathematics Basic Geometry Hard

A block of 66 by 49 by 12 is melted to form a sphere, then radius of sphere is approx

(A) 20
(B) 23
(C) 21
(D) 22
✓ Correct Answer: Option C Verified Solution

📘 Step-by-Step Solution & Detailed Explanation:

When the block is melted, its volume doesn't change.

Volume of block = \(66 \times 49 \times 12 = 38808\)

\(\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 = 38808 \Rightarrow r^3 = \frac{38808 \times 3 \times 7}{4 \times 22} = 9261\)

\(r = \sqrt[3]{9261} = 21\)

Answer: (C) 21
