Each cone of the hourglass has a height of 15 millimeters. The total height of the sand within the top portion of the hourglass is 45 millimeters. The radius of both cylinder and cone is 6 millimeters. Sand drips from the top of the hourglass to the bottom at a rate of 10π cubic millimeters per second. How many seconds will it take until all of the sand has dripped to the bottom of the hourglass?

We have to calculate the height of a cylinder : h2 = ( 45 - 2 · 15 )/ 2 = 15 / 2 = 7.5 mm
Volume of the bottom of the hourglass:V = 1/3 r² π h1 + r² π h2 = = 1/3 · 6² · 3.14 · 15 + 6² · 3.14 · 7.5 = = 1/3 · 36 · 3.14 · 15 + 36 · 3.14 · 7.5 = = 565.2 + 847.8 = 1,413 mm³The rate is 10 π mm³/ sec = 31.4 mm³/secTime = 1,413 : 31.4 = 45 sec.Answer: It will take 45 seconds.
