Question
A cylindrical container with a radius of 8 cm is placed on a flat surface. The container is filled with water to a height of 12 cm, as shown in the following diagram.
A heavy ball with a radius of 2.9 cm is dropped into the container. As a result, the height of the water increases to \(h\) cm, as shown in the following diagram.
Find the volume of water in the container.
Find the value of \(h\).

\(\pi \times {8^2} \times 12\) (M1)
Note: Award (M1) for correct substitution into the volume of a cylinder formula.

[2 marks]
\(\frac{4}{3}\pi \times {2.9^3} + 768\pi = \pi \times {8^2}h\) (M1)(M1)(M1)
Note: Award (M1) for correct substitution into the volume of a sphere formula (this may be implied by seeing 102.160…), (M1) for adding their volume of the ball to their part (a), (M1) for equating a volume to the volume of a cylinder with a height of \(h\).
OR
\(\frac{4}{3}\pi \times {2.9^3} = \pi \times {8^2}(h - 12)\) (M1)(M1)(M1)
Note: Award (M1) for correct substitution into the volume of a sphere formula (this may be implied by seeing 102.160…), (M1) for equating to the volume of a cylinder, (M1) for the height of the water level increase, \(h - 12\). Accept \(h\) for \(h - 12\) if adding 12 is implied by their answer.
\((h = ){\text{ }}12.5{\text{ (cm) }}\left( {12.5081 \ldots {\text{ (cm)}}} \right)\) (A1)(ft) (C4)
Note: If 3 sf answer used, answer is 12.5 (12.4944…). Follow through from part (a) if first method is used.
