Question Detail

A cylindrical tank of diameter 35 cm is full of water. If 11 litres of water is drawn off, the water level in the tank will drop by:

\begin{aligned} 11\frac{3}{7} cm \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 11\frac{2}{7} cm \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 11\frac{1}{7} cm\end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 11 cm\end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let the drop in the water level be h cm, then,

\begin{aligned}
\text{Volume of cylinder= }\pi r^2h \\
=> \frac{22}{7}*\frac{35}{2}*\frac{35}{2}*h = 11000 \\
=> h = \frac{11000*7*4}{22*35*35}cm\\
= \frac{80}{7}cm\\
= 11\frac{3}{7} cm
\end{aligned}

1. The slant height of a conical mountain is 2.5 km and the area of its base is 1.54 km square. The height of mountain is :

2.3 km
2.4 km
2.5 km
2.6 km

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the radius of the base be r km. Then,
\begin{aligned}
\pi r^2 = 1.54 \\
r^2 = \frac{1.54*7}{22} = 0.49\\
= 0.7 km \\
\text{Now l=2.5 km, r = 0.7 km} \\
h = \sqrt{2.5^2 - 0.7^2} km \\
=\sqrt{6.25 - 0.49}\\
=\sqrt{5.76} km \\
= 2.4 km
\end{aligned}

2. 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}

3. There are bricks with 24 cm x 12 cm x 8 cm dimensions. Find the total number of bricks required to construct a wall 24 m long, 8 m high and 60 m thick with 10% of wall filled with mortar.

35000
40000
45000
50000

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

So as per question,
\begin{aligned}
\text{Volume of wall} = (2400 * 800 * 60 ) cm^3 \\
\text{Volume of bricks} = \text { 90% of volume of wall } \\
= [ \frac{90}{100} * 2400 * 800 * 60 ] cm^3 \\
\text{ Volume of 1 brick = } (24 * 12 * 8) cm^3 \\
\text{Number of Bricks required} \\
= \frac{ (\frac{90}{100}) * (2400 * 800 * 60)}{24 * 12 * 8} \\
= 45000
\end{aligned}

4. A boat having a length 3 m and breadth 2 m is floating on a lake. The boat sinks by 1 cm when a man gets into it. The mass of the man is :

50 kg
60 kg
70 kg
80 kg

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In this type of question, first we will calculate the volume of water displaces then will multiply with the density of water.
Volume of water displaced = 3*2*0.01 = 0.06 m cube

Mass of Man = Volume of water displaced * Density of water

= 0.06 * 1000 = 60 kg

5. The perimeter of one face of a cube is 20 cm. Its volume will be:

\begin{aligned} 125 cm^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 400 cm^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 250 cm^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 625 cm^3 \end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Edge of cude = 20/4 = 5 cm

Volume = a*a*a = 5*5*5 = 125 cm cube
