    Ironduke is right, no picture is shown. If you want help do the decency of NOT just copying the question out of the book. Make it so people here can understand. Do you assume the ball is completely lowered in the glass? Is the glass completely filled with wine all the way to the rim? The total volume of the martini glass, which I am assuming is a cone, is 1/3*pi*r^2*h. The volume of the sphere is 4/3*pi*r^3. Remember the two r’s may be different. If the ball is put completely into the cone-shaped glass the volume of wine that pours out is equal to the volume of the sphere. But thats only if the glass was filled all the way to the rim.
