A cube-shaped container with a side length of 10 cm is filled with water. A solid metal sphere with a radius of 3 cm is then submerged into the container. How much water, in cubic centimeters, will overflow?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Given:
Sphere's radius = 3 cm
By formula:
Sphere's volume = (4/3)πr³
Sphere's volume = (4/3) × π × 3³
= (4/3) × π × 27
= 36π
