|
Answer» Given: Radius (r) = 5 cm To find: Curved surface area and total surface area of hemisphere i. Curved surface area of hemisphere = 2πr2 = 2 x 3.14 x 52 = 2 x 3.14 x 25 = 50 x 3.14 = 157 sq.cm. ii. Total surface area of hemisphere = 3πr2 = 3 x 3.14 x 52 = 235.5 sq.cm. ∴ The curved surface area and total surface area of hemisphere are 157 sq.cm, and 235.5 sq.cm, respectively. |

If the surface area of a sphere is 2826 cm2 then find its volume. (π = 3.14) |
|
Answer» Given: Surface area of sphere = 2826 sq.cm. To find: Volume of sphere i. Surface area of sphere = 4πr2 ∴ 2826 = 4 x 3.14 x r2 2826 = 282600 = 900 ∴ r2 = 2826/4 x 3.14 = 282600/4 x 314 = 900/4 ∴ r2 = 225 ∴ r = √225 … [Taking square root on both sides] = 15 cm ii. Volume of sphere = (4/3) πr3 = (4/3) x 3.14 x 153 = (4/3) x 3.14 x 15 x 15 x 15 = 4 x 3.14 x 5 x 15 x 15 = 14130 cubic cm. ∴ The volume of the sphere is 14130 cubic cm. |

Prepare a list of the different problems of your area which you would like to bring, into the notice of the government through the medium of media. |
|
Answer» The Editor Dainik Bhaskar, Bharatpur. Sir, I am a student of class 7. I would like to draw your attention to the problems prevailing in my area. The most important problem in our area is the bad condition of the roads. There are potholes on roads, where people’s vehicles are stuck and accidents happen. During the rainy season, these roads become even worse. Drains are filled with garbage from which water comes out on the road. Mud and dirt can be seen all around. People throw garbage here and there on the road. Cleaning workers also do not come every day, due to which the mess is visible. The lighting system on the roads is also not good, there are no lamp posts for the arrangement of light and if the lamp posts are there then the bulbs are not in working condition. Because of this, the entire area becomes dark after evening. Children and women feel unsafe to go out at this time. I hope you will publish my letter in your paper and help me draw the government’s attention towards our area and its problems. Thanking You Yours sincerely Lokesh Kumar Sharma Bharatpur |
