How many lead balls, each of radius 1cm, can be made from a sphere of radius 8cm?

Answer»

It is given that

Radius of lead ball = 1cm

Radius of sphere = 8cm

We know that

Number of lead balls = volume of sphere/ volume of one lead ball

So we get

Number of lead balls = (4/3 πR3)/ (4/3 πr3)

By substituting the values

Number of lead balls = (4/3 × (22/7) × 83)/ (4/3 × (22/7) × 13)

On further calculation

Number of lead balls = (4/3 × (22/7) × 512)/ (4/3 × (22/7) × 1)

We get

Number of lead balls = 512

Therefore, 512 lead balls can be made from the sphere.

How many spherical bullets each of 5 cm in diameter can be cast from a rectangular block of metal 11 dm x 1 m x 5 dm?

Answer»

Given,

A metallic block of dimension 11dm x 1m x 5dm

The diameter of each bullet = 5 cm

We know that,

Volume of the sphere = 4/3 πr3

Since, 1 dm = 10-1m = 0.1 m

The volume of the rectangular block = 1.1 x 1 x 0.5 = 0.55 m3

Radius of the bullet = 5/2 = 2.5 cm

Let the number of bullets made from the rectangular block be n.

Then from the question,

The volume of the rectangular block = sum of the volumes of the n spherical bullets

0.55 = n x 4/3 π(2.5)3

Solving for n, we have

n = 8400

Therefore, 8400 can be cast from the rectangular block of metal.

How many balls, each of radius 1cm, can be made from a solid sphere of lead of radius 8cm?

Answer»

Volume of the spherical ball of radius 8 cm = 4/3π x 83c3 

Also, volume of each smaller spherical ball of radius 1cm = 4/3π x 13cm3.

Let n be the number of smaller balls that can be made. Then, the volume of the larger ball is equal to the sum of all the volumes of n smaller balls.

Hence, 4/3π x n = 4/3π x 83

=> n = 83 = 512

Hence, the required number of balls = 512.

Two identical solid hemispheres of equal base radius r cm are stuck together along their bases. The total surface area of the combination is 6πr2.

Answer»

Solution:

False

Curved surface area of a hemisphere = 2 πr2

Here, two identical solid hemispheres of equal radius are stuck together. So, base of both hemispheres is common.

∴ Total surface area of the combination

= 2 πr2 + 2 πr2 = 4πr2

If two solid hemispheres of same base radius r are joined together along their bases, then curved surface area of this new solid is(a) 4πr2 (b) 6πr2 (c) 3πr2 (d) 8πr2

Answer»

The correct option is (a) 4πr2.

Explanation:

Because curved surface area of a hemisphere is 2 w2 and here, we join two solid hemispheres along their bases of radius r, from which we get a solid sphere.

Hence, the curved surface area of new solid = 2 πr2 + 2 πr2 = 4πr2.

A spherical ball of radius 3 cm is melted and recast into three spherical balls. The radii of two of the balls are 1.5 cm and 2 cm. Find the diameter of the third ball.

Answer»

Let radius of the third ball be r. 

Volume of the larger ball = \(\frac{4}{3}πR^3\) 

\(\frac{4}{3}π{3}^3\)

Volume of larger ball = sum of volume of smaller balls

⇒ \(\frac{4}{3}π{3}^3\)\(\frac{4}{3}π(1.5)^3 +{\frac{4}{3}π(2)^3} + {\frac{4}{3}πr^3}\)

⇒ r3 = 27 – 3.375 – 8 

⇒ r = 2.5 cm

A bucket is in the form of a frustum of a cone of height 30 cm with radii of its lower and upper ends as 10 cm and 20 cm respectively. Find the capacity and surface area of the bucket. Also, find the cost of milk which can completely fill the container, at the rate of Rs.25 per litre.

Answer»

Let R and r be the radii of the top and base of the bucket respectively,

Let h be its height.

Then, we have R = 20 cm, r = 10 cm, h = 30 cm

Capacity of the bucket = Volume of the frustum of the cone

= 1/3 π(R2 + r2 + R r )h

= 1/3 π(202 + 102 + 20 x 10 ) x 30

= 3.14 x 10 (400 + 100 + 200)

= 21980 cm3 = 21.98 litres

Now,

Surface area of the bucket = CSA of the bucket + Surface area of the bottom

= π l (R + r) + πr2

We know that,

l = √h2 + (R – r)2

= √[302 + (20 – 10)2] = √(900 + 100)

= √1000 = 31.62 cm

So,

The Surface area of the bucket = (3.14) x 31.62 x (20 + 10) + (3.14) x 102

= 2978.60 + 314

= 3292.60 cm2

Next, given that the cost of 1 litre milk = Rs 25

Thus, the cost of 21.98 litres of milk = Rs (25 x 21.98) = Rs 549.50

A bucket open at the top and made up of a metal sheet is in the form of a frustum of a cone. The depth of the bucket is 24 cm and the diameters of its upper and lower circular ends are 30 cm and 10 cm respectively. Find the cost of metal sheet used in it at the rate of Rs. 10 per 100 .cm3(use π = 3.14)

Answer»

Given, 

h = 24 cm, r’ = 15 cm and r’’ = 5 cm 

Let slant height be l 

Slant height, l = \(\sqrt{(r' - r")^2 + h^2}\)

⇒ l = \(\sqrt{(15 - 5)^2 + 24^2}\)

⇒ l = 26 cm 

Total surface area of the frustum = π(r’ + r’’)l+ πr’’2 

= π(15 + 5)(26) + π (5)2 

= 1711.3 cm

Cost of metal sheet used at the rate of Rs. 10 per 100 cm

\(\frac{1711.3}{100}\times10\)

= Rs 171

31511.

The slant height of the frustum of a cone is 4 cm and the perimeters of its circular ends are 18 cm and 6 cm. Find the curved surface of the frustum. 

Answer»

Given,

Slant height of frustum of cone (l) = 4 cm

Let ratio of the top and bottom circles be r1 and r2

And given perimeters of its circular ends as 18 cm and 6 cm

⟹ 2πr1 = 18 cm; 2πr2 = 6 cm

⟹ πr1= 9 cm and πr2 = 3 cm

We know that,

Curved surface area of frustum of a cone = π(r1 + r2)l

= π(r+ r2)l

= (πr1+πr2)l = (9 + 3) × 4 = (12) × 4 = 48 cm2

Therefore, the curved surface area of the frustum = 48 cm2.

Answer»

Given,

Height of the conical bucket = 45 cm

Radii of the 2 circular ends of the conical bucket are 28 cm and 7 cm

So, r1 = 28 cm r2 = 7 cm

Volume of the conical bucket = 1/3 π(r12 + r22 + rr)h

= 1/3 π(282 + 72 + 28 × 7)45 = 15435π

Therefore, the volume/ capacity of the bucket is 48510 cm3.

31513.

Water is pouring into a conical vessel (as shown in the given figure), at the rate of 1.8 m3 per minute. How long will it take to fill the vessel?

Answer»

From the figure, diameter of the cone 5.2 m

Thus its radius ’r’ = 5.2/2 = 2.6 m

∴ Height of the cone = h = 6.8 m 

Volume of the cone = 1/3 πr2h

= 1/3 x 22/7 x 2.6 x 2.6 x 6.8

= 1011.296/21

= 48.156 m3

Quantity of water that flows per minute

= 1.8 m3

∴ Total time required = Total volume/1.8

= 48.156/1.8 = 26.753

27 minutes

A copper wire 4 mm in diameter is evenly wound about a cylinder whose length is 24 cm and diameter 20 cm so as to cover the surface. Find the length and weight of the wire assuming the specific gravity to be 8.88 gm/cm3. (a) 1100 π cm, 545π2 gm (b) 1200 π cm, 441π2 gm (c) 1200 π cm, 426.24π2 gm (d) 1400 π cm, 426.24π2 gm

Answer»

(c) 1200 π cm, 426.24 π2 gm

One round of wire covers 4 mm = \(\frac4{10}\) cm in thickness of the surface of the cylinder 

Length of the cylinder = 24 cm

∴ Number of rounds to cover 24 cm = \(\frac{24}{\frac4{10}}=\frac{24\times10}{4}=60\) 

Diameter of the cylinder = 20 cm 

⇒ Radius of cylinder = 10 cm 

Length of the wire in completing one round 

= 2πr = 2π x 10 cm = 20 π cm.

∴ Length of the wire in covering the whole surface 

= Length of the wire in completing 60 rounds 

= (20 π × 60) cm = 1200 π cm. 

Radius of copper wire = 2 mm = \(\frac2{10}\) cm 

∴ Volume of wire = \(\big(π\times\frac2{10}\times\frac2{10}\times1200π\big)\)cm3 = 48 π2 cm3

So, weight of wire = (48π2 × 8.88) gm = 426.24 π2 gm.

If a solid right circular cylinder made of iron is heated to increase its radius and height by 1% each, then by how much per cent is the volume of the solid increased?

Answer»

Let r and h be the radius and height of the cylinder respectively. Then, after 1% increase, 

New radius = 1.1 r and new height = 1.1 h 

Original volume = πr2h , 

New volume = π(1.01r)2 (1.01h) =1.030301 πr2h

∴ % increase = \(\bigg(\frac{1.030301πr^2h-πr^2h}{πr^h}\times100\bigg)\)% = \(\bigg(\frac{0.030301πr^2h}{πr^h}\times100\bigg)\)%

= (0.030301 × 100)% = 3.03%

Volume of solid cylinder V= πr2h

If initial radius and height are 100cm each then increased radius and height will be 101cm each.

Initial volume V1=π×100×1002

Increased volume V2= π×101×1012

Percentage increase 

=[ (V2-V1)/V1]×100

=(101^3-100^3)/100^3×100

= 3.0301%

We know that,

Number of days water last in the tank = volume of tank / total requirement

= 1800000/600000

= 3 days

∴ Water in the tank last for 3 days.

The ratio of the total surface area to the lateral surface area of the cylinder is 5 : 3. Find the height of the cylinder if the radius of the cylinder is 12 cm?

Answer»

Let the height and radius of the cylinder be h and r respectively. Then,

\(\frac{\text{Total surface area}}{\text{lateral surface area}}\) = \(\frac{2πrh+2πr^2}{2πrh}\) = \(\frac{2πr(r+h)}{2πrh}\) = \(\frac{r+h}{h}\)

Given, \(\frac{r+h}{h}\) = \(\frac53\) ⇒ \(\frac{12+h}{h}\) = \(\frac53\) ⇒ 36 + 3h = 5h ⇒ 2h = 36 ⇒ h = 18 cm.

The length, breadth and height of a cuboid are in the ratio 3 : 4 : 6 and its volume is 576 cm3. The whole surface area of the cuboid is A. 216 cm2 B. 324 cm2 C. 432 cm2 D. 460 cm2

Answer»

We know that, 

Volume of cuboid = Length × Breadth × Height 

576 = 3x × 4x × 6x 

576 = 72x3

x = \(\sqrt[3]{\frac{576}{72}}\)

= 2 

Therefore, 

Total surface area of cuboid = 2 (lb + bh + hl) 

= 2 (3x × 4x + 4x × 6x + 6x × 3x) 

= 2 (48 + 96 + 72) 

= 432 cm2

An overhead water tanker is in the shape of a cylinder has capacity of 616 litres. The diameter of the tank is 5.6 m. Find the height of the tank.

Answer»

Volume of the cylinder, V = πr2h = 616 

Diameter of the tank = 5.6 m 

Thus its radius, r =d/2 =5.6/2 = 2.8 m

Height = h (say)

∴ πr2h = 616

22/7 × 2.8 × 2.8 × h = 616

h = \(\frac {616\times7}{22\times2.8\times2.8}\) = 25

∴ Height = 25 m

The volume of a cylinder is 308 cm3 . Its height is 8 cm. Find its lateral surface area and total surface area.

Answer»

Volume of the cylinder V = πr2 h = 308 cm 

Height of the cylinder h = 8 cm 

∴ 308 = 22/7 . r2 x 8

r2 = 308 × 7/22 x 1/8

r2 = 12.25

∴ r = √12.25 = 3.5cm

L.S.A. = 2πrh

= 2 × 22/7 × 3.5 × 8 = 176cm2

T.S.A. = 2πr (r + h) 

2 × 22/7 × 3.5 (3.5 + 8)

= 2 × 22 × 0.5 × 11.5 = 253 cm2

How many coins 1.75 cm in diameter and 2 mm thick must be melted to form a cuboid 11 cm x 10 cm x 7 cm? 

Answer»

Given,

Diameter of the coin = 1.75 cm

So, its radius = 1.74/2 = 0.875 cm

Thickness or the height = 2 mm = 0.2 cm

We know that,

Volume of the cylinder (V1) = πr2h

= π 0.8752 × 0.2

And, the volume of the cuboid (V2) = 11 × 10 × 7 cm3

Let the number of coins needed to be melted be n.

So, we have

V2 = V1 × n

11 × 10 × 7 = π 0.8752 × 0.2 x n

11 × 10 × 7 = 22/7 x 0.8752 × 0.2 x n

On solving we get, n = 1600

Therefore, the number of coins required are 1600.

How many coins 1.75 cm in diameter and 2 mm thick must be melted to form a cuboid 11 cm × 10 cm × 7 cm?

Answer»

Volume of cuboid = l × b × h = 11 × 10 × 7 

Diameter of coin = 1.75 cm 

Radius = \(\frac{1.75}2\) cm = 0.875 cm 

Thickness of coin = 2 mm = 0.2 cm 

Volume of coin (cylinder) = πr2h

= (\(\frac{22}7\)) × 0.875 × 0.875 × 0.2 cm

Let number of coins be n 

⇒ n × volume of coins = volume of cuboid 

⇒ n × (22/7) × 0.875 × 0.875 × 0.2 = 11 × 10 × 7

⇒ n = \(\frac{{11} \times{10} \times{7} \times{7}}{{22} \times{0.875} \times{0.875} \times{0.2}}\)

⇒ n = 1600
