Question : A hollow spherical shell is made of a metal of density 2.5 g/cm³. If the external and the internal radii of the given sphere are 35 cm and 14 cm, respectively, find the mass of the shell. [Use $\pi=\frac{22}{7}$]

Option 1: 398567 g

Option 2: 324120 g

Option 3: 440040 g

Option 4: 420420 g

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 420420 g


Solution : R = outer Radius
r = inner radius
​​​ Volume of the hollow sphere = $\frac{4}{3}\pi$(R3 – r3) = $\frac{4}{3}\pi$(353 – 143)
⇒ $\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Density}}$  = $\frac{4}{3}$ × $\frac{22}{7}$ × (42875 – 2744)
⇒ Mass = 2.5 × $\frac{4}{3}$
