Question Detail
A cone of height 9 cm with diameter of its base 18 cm is carved out from a wooden solid sphere of radius 9 cm. The percentage of the wood wasted is :
- 45%
- 56%
- 67%
- 75%
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
We will first subtract the cone volume from wood volume to get the wood wasted.
Then we can calculate its percentage.
\begin{aligned}
\text{Sphere Volume =}\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 \\
\text{Cone Volume =}\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h\\
\text{Volume of wood wasted =}\\
\left(\frac{4}{3}\pi *9*9*9\right)-\left(\frac{1}{3}\pi *9*9*9\right) \\
= \pi *9*9*9 cm^3 \\
\text{Required Percentage =} \\
\frac{\pi *9*9*9}{\frac{4}{3}\pi *9*9*9}*100 \% \\
= \frac{3}{4}*100 \% \\
= 75\%
\end{aligned}
1. Two right circular cylinders of equal volumes have their heights in the ratio 1:2. Find the ratio of their radii.
- \begin{aligned} \sqrt{3}:1 \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} \sqrt{7}:1 \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} \sqrt{2}:1 \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 2:1 \end{aligned}
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Let their heights be h and 2h and radii be r and R respectively then.
\begin{aligned}
\pi r^2h = \pi R^2(2h) \\
=> \frac{r^2}{R^2} = \frac{2h}{h} \\
= \frac{2}{1} \\
=> \frac{r}{R} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{1} \\
=> r:R = \sqrt{2}:1 \\
\end{aligned}
2. A hollow iron pipe is 21 cm long and its external diameter is 8 cm. If the thickness of the pipe is 1 cm and iron weights 8g/cm cube, then find the weight of the pipe.
- 3.696 kg
- 3.686 kg
- 2.696 kg
- 2.686 kg
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
In this type of question, we need to subtract external radius and internal radius to get the answer using the volume formula as the pipe is hollow. Oh! line become a bit complicated, sorry for that, lets solve it.
External radius = 4 cm
Internal radius = 3 cm [because thickness of pipe is 1 cm]
\begin{aligned}
\text{Volume of iron =}\pi r^2h\\
= \frac{22}{7}*[4^2 - 3^2]*21 cm^3\\
= \frac{22}{7}*1*21 cm^3\\
= 462 cm^3 \\
\end{aligned}
Weight of iron = 462*8 = 3696 gm
= 3.696 kg
3. The maximum length of a pencil that can he kept is a rectangular box of dimensions 8 cm x 6 cm x 2 cm, is
- \begin{aligned} 2\sqrt{17} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 2\sqrt{16} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 2\sqrt{26} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 2\sqrt{24} \end{aligned}
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
In this question we need to calculate the diagonal of cuboid,
which is =
\begin{aligned}
\sqrt{l^2+b^2+h^2} \\
= \sqrt{8^2+6^2+2^2} \\
= \sqrt{104} \\
= 2\sqrt{26}
\end{aligned}
4. 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}
5. Find the surface area of a 10cm*4cm*3cm brick.
- 154 cm square
- 156 cm square
- 160 cm square
- 164 cm square
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Surface area of a cuboid = 2(lb+bh+hl) cm square
So,
Surface area of a brick = 2(10*4+4*3+3*10) cm square
= 2(82) cm square = 164 cm square
