1. A solid metal sphere of radius 14 cm was melted and recast to form 49 smaller hollow spheres
each of external diameter of 4 cm. Find the internal diameter of each hollow sphere. [4]

2. A hemispherical bowl of internal diameter 12 cm is full of water. It is emptied into an empty

cylindrical glass with an internal diameter of 8 cm. Find the depth of water in the glass. [3]

3. A conical container has an internal diameter of 60 cm and its internal height is 1 m and 15 cm.
When empty, its mass is 8 kg.
(a) Find the total mass in kg if the container is full of oil and the oil weighs 560 kg/cm³.
(b) How many times can the oil in the container fill a hemispherical bowl of diameter 10 cm?
[4]

4. A cylindrical jar of radius 4 cm is partly filled with water. 2 000 identical iron spheres of diameter
0.6 cm are put into the jar so that all spheres are completely immersed. Find the rise in the level of
water, assuming that the water does not overflow. [4]

5. A rectangular block of lead, 4.5 cm by 8 cm by 10 cm, was melted down and recast into solid spheres
of radius 1.5 cm. Calculate the number of complete solid spheres that can be produced.
[4]

6. A test–tube consists of a cylinder with a hemispherical base. The diameter of the hemisphere is 3 cm
and the height of the cylinder is 22 cm, both being internal measurements. A mark is made on the
test–tube when it is half–full. Find the height of this mark above the lowest point of the test–tube.
[5]

7. A quantity of metal weighing 95 kg is melted down and made into a cone of height 0.6 m. If the
3
metal weighs 4.6 g per cm , find to the nearest 0.1 metre, the radius of the base of the cone.
[5]

8. The diameter of a hemispherical bowl is 42 cm. Water flows into it at the rate of 16 km per
hour from a cylindrical pipe that is 1.2 cm in diameter. Find, correct to the nearest second, the time
it will take to fill the bowl. [5]

9. A cylindrical container has a diameter of m. If the container contains water that is sufficient to
3
1
fill up 12 hemispheres of diameter m, find the depth of the water in the container. [4]
