Answer -
Given,
Radius of eachspherical lead shot = r = 4.2/ 2 = 2.1 cm
The dimensions of therectangular lead piece = 66 cm x 42 cm x 21 cm
So, the volume of aspherical lead shot = 4/3 πr3
= 4/3 x 22/7 x 2.13
And, the volume of therectangular lead piece = 66 x 42 x 21
Thus,
The number ofspherical lead shots = Volume of rectangular lead piece/ Volume of a sphericallead shot
= 66 x 42 x 21/ (4/3 x22/7 x 2.13)
= 1500
