Question

Transcribed Image Text:Take a uniform ball of radius R = 2, and drill a cylindrically-shaped hole of radius
r = a through its center. What remains is sort of a bulgy ring.
Calculate the exact radius a of the cylindrical hole so that the volume of the bulgy ring is equal to
the volume that was drilled out. That is, the bulgy ring is half the volume of the original ball.
