39. The outer diameter of a spherical shell is 10 cm and 42.5 - 48.5 45.5 10 4
the inner diameter is 9 cm. Find the volume of the 48.5 - 54.5 51.5 6 8
metal contained in the shell. (Use π = 22 ) [4]
7 54.5 - 60.5 57.5 2 10
SOLUTION :
Now, frequency polygon for both teams are given
Outer diameter = 10 cm below

` Outer radius ^Rh = 10 = 5 cm

2
Inner diameter = 9 cm
Inner radius ^r h = 9 cm
2
Volume of the metal contained in the shell
= 4 πR3 − 4 πr3
3 3

= 4 π ^R3 − r3h
