The largest sphere is to be carved out of a right circular cylinder of radius $ 7 \mathrm{~cm} $ and height $ 14 \mathrm{~cm} $. Find the volume of the sphere.
Given:
The largest sphere is to be carved out of a right circular cylinder of radius \( 7 \mathrm{~cm} \) and height \( 14 \mathrm{~cm} \).
To do:
We have to find the volume of the sphere.
Solution:
Radius of the right circular cylinder $=7\ cm$
Height of the right circular cylinder $=14\ cm$
Let $r$ be the radius of the largest sphere.
Largest sphere to be carved will have its diameter as the height of the cylinder.
Therefore,
$h=14 \mathrm{~cm}$
$\Rightarrow 2 r=14$
$r=\frac{14}{2}$
$r=7 \mathrm{~cm}$
This implies,
Volume of the sphere $=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$
$=\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 7^{3}$
$=\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 343$
$=\frac{4312}{3}$
$=1437.33 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}$
The volume of the sphere is $1437.33\ cm^3$.
