Geometry

A glass with a bottom and a top inside radius of 5 cm and 7.5 cm respectively, and a height of 5 inches, was filled with water until the brim. A solid spherical ball was dropped inside resulting in the water overflowing and spilling, creating a wet area on the table. If the ball has a radius of 4 cm, find (a) the volume of the spilled water (assuming the glass remained full to the brim) and (b) the area of the wet area assuming that the spilled water was evenly distributed on the table at 1 mm thickness.

A 12-pack box of soda cans has dimensions 4.875 inches by 5.125 inches by 15.5 inches. A single can of soda is approximately a cylinder with a diameter of 2.5 inches and a height of 4.875 inches. What percent of the full box volume is not taken up by the cans, and thus 'wasted space'?

Show your calculations, including units as appropriate.
