We have,
Radius of the cylindrical vessel = 30 cm
Radius of the sphere = 15 cm
Volume of the sphere
Suppose water level rises by h cm in the cylindrical vesel, Then, volume of the cylinder of height h cm and radius 30 cm = (π ×(30)2 × h) cm3
Clearly, volume of the water displaced by the sphere is equal to the volume of the sphere
h = 5 cm
