Question Detail

66 cubic centimetres of silver is drawn into a wire 1 mm in diameter. The length if the wire in meters will be:

76 m
80 m
84 m
88 m

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the length of the wire be h
\begin{aligned}
Radius = \frac{1}{2}mm = \frac{1}{20}cm\\
\pi r^2h = 66 \\
\frac{22}{7}*\frac{1}{20}*\frac{1}{20}*h = 66 \\
=> h = \frac{66*20*20*7}{22} \\
= 8400 cm \\
= 84 m
\end{aligned}

1. The volume of the largest right circular cone that can be cut out of a cube of edge 7 cm is:

\begin{aligned} 79.8 cm^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 79.4 cm^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 89.8 cm^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 89.4 cm^3 \end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Volume of the largest cone = Volume of the cone with diameter of base 7 and height 7 cm

\begin{aligned}
\text{Volume of cone =}\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h \\
= \frac{1}{3}*\frac{22}{7}*3.5*3.5*7 \\
= \frac{269.5}{3}cm^3 \\
= 89.8 cm^3
\end{aligned}

Note: radius is taken as 3.5, as diameter is 7 cm

2. 66 cubic centimetres of silver is drawn into a wire 1 mm in diameter. The length if the wire in meters will be:

76 m
80 m
84 m
88 m

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

3. A hemisphere and a cone have equal bases. If their heights are also equal, then the ratio of their curved surface will be :

\begin{aligned} 2:1 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 1:\sqrt{2} \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \sqrt{2}:1 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \sqrt{3}:1 \end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the radius of hemisphere and cone be R,
Height of hemisphere H = R.
So the height of the cone = height of the hemisphere = R
Slant height of the cone
\begin{aligned}
= \sqrt{R^2+R^2} \\
= \sqrt{2}R \\
\frac{\text{Hemisphere Curved surface area}}{\text{Cone Curved surface area}} = \\
\frac{2\pi R^2}{\pi *R*\sqrt{2}R} \\
= \sqrt{2}:1
\end{aligned}

4. 12 spheres of the same size are made from melting a solid cylinder of 16 cm diameter and 2 cm height. Find the diameter of each sphere.

4 cm
6 cm
8 cm
10 cm

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

In this type of question, just equate the two volumes to get the answer as,
\begin{aligned}
\text{Volume of cylinder =}\pi r^2h\\
\text{Volume of sphere =} \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\
=> 12*\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 = \pi r^2h \\
=> 12*\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 = \pi *8*8*2 \\
=> r^3 = \frac{8*8*2*3}{12*4} \\
=> r^3 = 8 \\
=> r = 2 cm \\
=> \text{Diameter =}2*2 = 4 cm
\end{aligned}
