Question

A vessel, in the form of an inverted cone, is filled with water to brim. Its height is 32 cm and diameter of the base is 25.2 cm. Six equal solid cones are dropped in it, so that they are fully submerged. As a result one fourth of water is volume of each of the solid cone submerged?

Answer 1

On submerging six equal solid cones into it, one-fourth of the water overflows.

Therefore, volume of the equal solid cones submerged

= Volume of water that overflows
