Question 12 Marks
Twenty$-$seven solid iron spheres, each of radius $r$ and surface area $S$ are melted to form a sphere with surface area $S\ '$. Find the
$i.$ radius $r\ '$ of the new sphere, and
$ii.$ ratio of $S$ and $S\ '$.
Answer
Volume of $27$ solid sphere, each of radius, $r = 27 \times \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 = 36 \pi r^3 $
According to the question,
Volume of sphere of radius $r\ ' =$ Volume of $27$ solid spheres
$\Rightarrow \frac{4}{3} \pi (r\ ')^3 = 36 \pi r^3 $
$ \Rightarrow (r\ ')^3 = 27r^3 = (3r)^3$
$ \Rightarrow r\ ' = 3r$
We have,
$S^{\prime}=4 \pi r^{\prime 2}=4 \pi(3 r)^2=36 \pi r^2 $
$ \therefore \frac{S}{S'} = \frac{4 \pi r^2}{36 \pi r^2} = \frac{1}{9} $
$ \Rightarrow S : S\ ' = 1 : 9.$

Question 22 Marks
Find the volume of a sphere whose surface area is $154 cm^2$.
Answer
Let the radius of the sphere be $r cm.$
Surface area = $154 cm^2$
$\Rightarrow\ 4\pi r^2$ = 154
$\Rightarrow\ 4\times{22\over7}\times r^2=154$
$\Rightarrow\ r^2={154\times7\over4\times22}\Rightarrow {r^2={49\over4} }$
$\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{49\over4}\Rightarrow r={7\over2}$ cm
$\therefore$Volume of the sphere =${4\over3}\pi r^3$
$={4\over3}\times{22\over7}\times({7\over2})^2={539\over3}\ cm^3$
$=179{2\over3}\ cm^3$

Question 42 Marks
The diameter of a metallic ball is $4.2 \ cm $. What is the mass of the ball, if the metal weighs $8.9 g$ per $cm ^3$ ?
Answer
Diameter of metallic ball $= 4.2 cm$
$\therefore$ Radius of metallic ball $\left( r \right)$=$\frac{4.2}{2} = 2.1 cm$
Volume of metallic ball =$\frac{4}{3}\pi {{r}^{3}}$=$\frac{4}{3}\times \frac{22}{7}\times 2.1\times 2.1\times 2.1$
=$\frac{4}{3}\times \frac{22}{7}\times \frac{21}{10}\times \frac{21}{10}\times \frac{21}{10} =38.808 c{{m}^{3}}$
Density of metal $= 8.9 g$ per $c{{m}^{3}}$
DensityxVolume=Mass
$\because$ Mass of $1 c{{m}^{3}} = 8.9 g$
$\therefore$ Mass of $38.808 c{{m}^{3}}4 =\text{ }8.9\times 38.808 = 345.3912 g = 345.39 g$ (approx.)

A hemispherical bowl made of brass has inner diameter $10.5 \ cm$. Find the cost of tin-plating it on the inside at the rate of $₹16$ per $100\text{cm}^{2}$.
Answer
Inner diameter of bowl $= 10.5 cm$
$\therefore $ Inner radius of bowl $\left( r \right)=\frac{10.5}{2} = 5.25 cm$
Now, Inner surface area of bowl = $2\pi {{r}^{2}}$
$=2\times \frac{22}{7}\times 5.25\times 5.25$
$=2\times \frac{22}{7}\times \frac{21}{4}\times \frac{21}{4}$
=$\frac{693}{4}c{{m}^{2}}$
$\because $ Cost of tin-plating per$ 100\text{ }c{{m}^{2}} = ₹ 16$
$\therefore $ Cost of tin-plating per$ 1\text{ }c{{m}^{2}}=\frac{16}{100}$

Question 182 Marks
The height of a cone is $16 \ cm$ and its base radius is $12 \ cm$. Find the curved surface area and the total surface area of the cone (Use $\pi = 3.14).$
Answer
We are given that,
Here, $\mathrm{h}=16 \mathrm{~cm}$ and $\mathrm{r}=12 \mathrm{~cm}$.
So, from $l^2=h^2+r^2$, we have
$l=\sqrt{16^2+12^2} \mathrm{~cm}=20 \mathrm{~cm}$
So, curved surface area $=\pi r l$
$=3.14 \times 12 \times 20 \mathrm{~cm}^2=753.6 \mathrm{~cm}^2$
Further, total surface area $=\pi r l+\pi r^2$
$=(753.6+3.14 \times 12 \times 12) \mathrm{cm}^2$
$=(753.6+452.16) \mathrm{cm}^2$
$=1205.76 \mathrm{~cm}^2$

Question 192 Marks
Hameed has built a cubical water tank with lid for his house, with each other edge $1.5 \ m$ long. He gets the outer surface of the tank excluding the base, covered with square tiles of side $25 \ cm$. Find how much he would spend for the tiles if the cost of tiles is $₹ 360$ per dozen.
Answer
Since Hameed is getting the five outer faces of the tank covered with tiles, he would need to know the surface area of the tank, to decide on the number of tiles required.
Edge of the cubic tank, $a=1.5 m=150 cm$
So, surface area of the tank $=5 \times 150 \times 150 cm^2$.
Area of each square title $=\frac{\text { surface area of the tank }}{\text { area of each title }}=\frac{5 \times 150 \times 150}{25 \times 25}=180$
Cost of 1 dozen tiles, i.e., cost of $12$ tiles $= Rs. 360$
Therefore, cost of one tile $=$ Rs $\frac{360}{12}= Rs. 30$
So the cost of 180 tiles $=180 \times$ Rs. $30= Rs. 5400$

Question 202 Marks
A shot-put is a metallic sphere of radius $4.9 \ cm$ . If the density of the metal is $7.8 g$ per $\mathrm{cm}^3$, find the mass of the shot-put.
Answer
Since the shot-putt is a solid sphere made of metal and its mass is equal to the product of its volume and density, we need to find the volume of the sphere.
Now, volume of the sphere is given by $=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$
$=\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 4.9 \times 4.9 \times 4.9 \mathrm{~cm}^3$
$=493 \mathrm{~cm}^3 \text { (nearly) }$
Further, mass of $1 \mathrm{~cm}^3$ of metal is$ 7.8 g .$
Therefore, mass of the shot-putt will be $=7.8 \times 493 \mathrm{~g}$ $=3845.44 \mathrm{~g}=3.85 \mathrm{~kg}$ (nearly)

Question 212 Marks
The pillars of a temple are cylindrically shaped if each pillar has a circular base of radius $20\ cm$ and height $10 \ m$. How much concrete mixture would be required to build $14$ such pillars?
Answer
Radius of base of cylinder $= 20\ cm$
Height of pillar $= 10\ m = 1000\ cm$
Volume of each cylinder = $\pi {{r}^{2}}h$
$=\frac{22}{7}\times 20\times 20\times 1000\text{ }c{{m}^{3}}$
$=\frac{8800000}{7}\text{ }c{{m}^{3}}$
$=\frac{8.8}{7}{{m}^{3}}\left[ \therefore 1000000c{{m}^{3}}=1{{m}^{3}} \right]$
$\therefore$ Volume of $14$ pillars = volume of each cylinder $\times$ 14
$=\frac{8.8}{7}\times 14c{{m}^{3}}=17.6{{m}^{3}}$
So 14 pillars would need $17.6{{m}^{3}}$ of concrete mixture
