Ex 6.3, 23 Prove that the volume of the largest cone that can be inscribed in a sphere of radius R is 8/27 of the volume of the sphere.Cone of largest volume inscribed in the sphere of radius R Let OC = x Radius of cone = BC Height of cone = h = OC + OA Finding OC Ξ” BOC is a right angled triangle Using Pythagoras theorem in βˆ†BOC 〖𝑂𝐡〗^2=〖𝐡𝐢〗^2+〖𝑂𝐢〗^2 R2 =〖𝐡𝐢〗^2+π‘₯^2 BC2 = 𝑅^2 – x2 BC = √(𝑅^2βˆ’π‘₯^2 ) Thus, Radius of cone = BC = √(𝑅^2βˆ’π‘₯^2 ) Height of cone = OC + OA = R + x We need to show Maximum volume of cone = 8/27 Γ— Volume of sphere = 8/27 Γ— 4/3 πœ‹π‘…^3 = 32/81 πœ‹π‘…^3 Let V be the volume of a cone We know that Volume of a cone = 1/3 πœ‹(π‘Ÿπ‘Žπ‘‘π‘–π‘’π‘  )^2 (β„Žπ‘’π‘–π‘”β„Žπ‘‘ ) V = 1/3 πœ‹(√(𝑅^2βˆ’π‘₯^2 ))^2 (𝑅+π‘₯) V = 1/3 πœ‹(𝑅^2βˆ’π‘₯^2 )(𝑅+π‘₯) V = 1/3 πœ‹(𝑅^2 (𝑅+π‘₯)βˆ’π‘₯^2 (𝑅+π‘₯)) V = 1/3 πœ‹(𝑅^(3 )+𝑅^2 π‘₯βˆ’π‘₯^2 π‘…βˆ’π‘₯^3 ) Diff w.r.t 𝒙 𝑑𝑉/𝑑π‘₯=𝑑/𝑑π‘₯ [1/3 πœ‹(𝑅^(3 )+𝑅^2 π‘₯βˆ’π‘₯^2 π‘…βˆ’π‘₯^3 )] 𝑑𝑉/𝑑π‘₯=πœ‹/3 [𝑑/𝑑π‘₯ (𝑅^(3 )+𝑅^2 π‘₯βˆ’π‘₯^2 π‘…βˆ’π‘₯^3 )] 𝑑𝑉/𝑑π‘₯=πœ‹/3 (0+𝑅^2.1βˆ’π‘… Γ—2π‘₯βˆ’3π‘₯^2 ) 𝑑𝑉/𝑑π‘₯=πœ‹/3 (𝑅^2βˆ’2𝑅π‘₯βˆ’3π‘₯^2 ) Putting 𝒅𝑽/𝒅𝒙=𝟎 1/3 πœ‹(𝑅^2βˆ’2𝑅π‘₯βˆ’3π‘₯^2 )=0 𝑅^2βˆ’2𝑅π‘₯βˆ’3π‘₯^2=0 𝑅^2βˆ’3𝑅π‘₯+𝑅π‘₯βˆ’3π‘₯^2=0 R(π‘…βˆ’3π‘₯)+π‘₯(π‘…βˆ’3π‘₯)=0 (𝑅+π‘₯)(π‘…βˆ’3π‘₯)=0 So, x = –R & π‘₯=𝑅/3 Since x cannot be negative π‘₯=𝑅/3 Finding (𝒅^𝟐 𝒗)/(𝒅𝒙^𝟐 ) 𝑑𝑣/𝑑π‘₯=1/3 πœ‹(𝑅^2βˆ’2𝑅π‘₯βˆ’3π‘₯^2 ) (𝑑^2 𝑣)/(𝑑π‘₯^2 )=πœ‹/3 𝑑/𝑑π‘₯ (𝑅^2βˆ’2𝑅π‘₯βˆ’3π‘₯^2 ) (𝑑^2 𝑣)/(𝑑π‘₯^2 )=πœ‹/3 (0βˆ’2π‘…βˆ’6π‘₯) (𝑑^2 𝑣)/(𝑑π‘₯^2 )=(βˆ’πœ‹)/3 (2𝑅+6π‘₯) Putting 𝒙=𝑹/πŸ‘ γ€–(𝑑^2 𝑣)/(𝑑π‘₯^2 )β”‚γ€—_(π‘₯ = 𝑅/3) =(βˆ’πœ‹)/3 (2𝑅+6(𝑅/3)) =(βˆ’πœ‹)/3 (2𝑅+2𝑅) =(βˆ’πœ‹)/3 (4𝑅) =(βˆ’4πœ‹π‘…)/3 < 0 Thus (𝑑^2 𝑣)/(𝑑π‘₯^2 )<0 when π‘₯=𝑅/3 ∴ Volume is Maximum when π‘₯=𝑅/3 Finding maximum volume From (1) Volume of cone = 1/3 πœ‹(𝑅^2βˆ’π‘₯^2 )(𝑅+π‘₯) Putting π‘₯ = 𝑅/3 = 1/3 πœ‹(𝑅^2βˆ’(𝑅/3)^2 )(𝑅+𝑅/3) = 1/3 πœ‹(𝑅^2βˆ’π‘…^2/9)((3𝑅 + 𝑅)/3) = 1/3 πœ‹((9𝑅^2βˆ’ 𝑅^2)/9)(4𝑅/3) = πŸ‘πŸ/πŸ–πŸ 𝝅𝑹^πŸ‘ Hence proved
