Volume of Hemisphere Puzzle












-2












$begingroup$


Here we have 3 hemispheres.
The volumes of which are;
$$V_0 = y$$
$$V_1 = 15x$$
$$V_2 = 10x$$



Find $y$ and come up with a formula for finding $y$ with any values of $V_1$ and $V_2$.



enter image description here





This is my attempt at working it out but what I have at the very end looks very complicated and I wasn't expecting something like that.



$$V_0 = left(frac{2π}{3}right)(r_0)^3 ∴ r_0 = sqrt[3]{frac{3V_0}{2pi}}$$
$$V_1 = left(frac{2π}{3}right)(r_1)^3 ∴ r_1 = sqrt[3]{frac{3V_1}{2pi}}$$
$$V_2 = left(frac{2π}{3}right)(r_2)^3 ∴ r_2 = sqrt[3]{frac{3V_2}{2pi}}$$



Using Pythagoras' theorem we get;
$$ (2r_0)^2 = (r_1+r_2)^2 + (r_1-r_2)^2$$
$$⇒ 4(r_0)^2 = 2(r_1)^2 + 2(r_2)^2$$
$$⇒ 4left(sqrt[3]{frac{3V_0}{2pi}}right)^2 = 2left(sqrt[3]{frac{3V_1}{2pi}}right)^2 + 2left(sqrt[3]{frac{3V_2}{2pi}}right)^2$$
$$⇒ sqrt[3]{frac{3V_0}{2pi}} = left({frac{left({frac{3V_1}{2pi}}right)^{frac{2}{3}} + left({frac{3V_2}{2pi}}right)^{frac{2}{3}}}{2}}right)^{frac{1}{2}}$$
$$⇒ V_0 = left({frac{2pi}{3}}right)left({frac{left({frac{3V_1}{2pi}}right)^{frac{2}{3}} + left({frac{3V_2}{2pi}}right)^{frac{2}{3}}}{2}}right)^{frac{3}{2}}$$

You can use the given relations on $V_1$ and $V_2$ to get their respective radii. Having found the radii in terms of $x$, you need to find the length of the direct common chord between them. Draw the radii from the the centres $C_1$ and $C_2$ to the tangent $T$, note that they are perpendicular. Let them meet the tangent at $T_1$ and $T_2$ respectively. Drop a perpendicular from $C_2$ to $C_1T_1$, let them meet at $X$. Then $C_1C_2X$ is a right angled triangle, $C_2XT_1T_2$ is a rectangle. Now use pythagorus' theorem to find the length of the tangent, which is the same as the diameter of the topmost hemisphere and equate with the area.

$$V_0 = left(frac{2π}{3}right)(r_0)^3 ∴ r_0 = sqrt[3]{frac{3V_0}{2pi}}$$
$$V_1 = left(frac{2π}{3}right)(r_1)^3 ∴ r_1 = sqrt[3]{frac{3V_1}{2pi}}$$
$$V_2 = left(frac{2π}{3}right)(r_2)^3 ∴ r_2 = sqrt[3]{frac{3V_2}{2pi}}$$



Using Pythagoras' theorem we get;
$$(r_1+r_2)^2 = (2r_0)^2 + (r_1-r_2)^2$$
$$⇒(r_0)^2 = r_1r_2$$
$$⇒left({frac{3V_0}{2pi}}right)^{frac{2}{3}} = {frac{3V_1}{2pi}}^{frac{1}{3}}{frac{3V_2}{2pi}}^{frac{1}{3}}$$
$$⇒left({frac{3V_0}{2pi}}right)^2 = {frac{9V_1V_2}{4pi^2}}$$
$$⇒V_0^2 = V_1V_2$$



Now just sub in $V_1$ and $V_2$ respectively.

    $$V_0 = left(frac{2π}{3}right)(r_0)^3 ∴ r_0 = sqrt[3]{frac{3V_0}{2pi}}$$
    $$V_1 = left(frac{2π}{3}right)(r_1)^3 ∴ r_1 = sqrt[3]{frac{3V_1}{2pi}}$$
    $$V_2 = left(frac{2π}{3}right)(r_2)^3 ∴ r_2 = sqrt[3]{frac{3V_2}{2pi}}$$



    Using Pythagoras' theorem we get;
    $$(r_1+r_2)^2 = (2r_0)^2 + (r_1-r_2)^2$$
    $$⇒(r_0)^2 = r_1r_2$$
    $$⇒left({frac{3V_0}{2pi}}right)^{frac{2}{3}} = {frac{3V_1}{2pi}}^{frac{1}{3}}{frac{3V_2}{2pi}}^{frac{1}{3}}$$
    $$⇒left({frac{3V_0}{2pi}}right)^2 = {frac{9V_1V_2}{4pi^2}}$$
    $$⇒V_0^2 = V_1V_2$$

        $$V_0 = left(frac{2π}{3}right)(r_0)^3 ∴ r_0 = sqrt[3]{frac{3V_0}{2pi}}$$
        $$V_1 = left(frac{2π}{3}right)(r_1)^3 ∴ r_1 = sqrt[3]{frac{3V_1}{2pi}}$$
        $$V_2 = left(frac{2π}{3}right)(r_2)^3 ∴ r_2 = sqrt[3]{frac{3V_2}{2pi}}$$



        Using Pythagoras' theorem we get;
        $$(r_1+r_2)^2 = (2r_0)^2 + (r_1-r_2)^2$$
        $$⇒(r_0)^2 = r_1r_2$$
        $$⇒left({frac{3V_0}{2pi}}right)^{frac{2}{3}} = {frac{3V_1}{2pi}}^{frac{1}{3}}{frac{3V_2}{2pi}}^{frac{1}{3}}$$
        $$⇒left({frac{3V_0}{2pi}}right)^2 = {frac{9V_1V_2}{4pi^2}}$$
        $$⇒V_0^2 = V_1V_2$$



        Now just sub in $V_1$ and $V_2$ respectively.
