MCQ 521 Mark
On increasing the radii of the base and the height of a cone by $20\%,$ its volume will increase by :
  • A
    $20\%$
  • B
    $40\%$
  • C
    $60\%$
  • $72.8\%$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$72.8\%$
Let the radius and height of the cone be $r$ and $h$ respectively.
Origunal volume $=\frac{1}{3}\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}$
On increasing each by $20\%,$ the new radius and height
become $\text{r}+\frac{1}{5}\text{r}=\frac{6}{5}\text{r}$ and $\text{h}+\frac{1}{5}\text{h}=\frac{6}{5}\text{h}.$
New volume $=\frac{1}{3}\pi\Big(\frac{6}{5}\text{r}\Big)^2\Big(\frac{6}{5}\Big)\text{h}$
$=\frac{1}{3}\pi\Big(\frac{36}{25}\text{r}^2\Big)\Big(\frac{6}{5}\text{h}\Big)$
$=\frac{216}{125}\Big(\frac{1}{3}\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}\Big)$
$=\frac{216}{125} \ ($Original volume$)$
So, change in the volume
$=\frac{216}{125} \ ($Original volume$) - ($Original volume$)$
$=\frac{91}{125} \ ($Original volume$)$
Increase percentage $=\frac{\frac{91}{125}(\text{Original volume})}{\text{Original volume}}\times100$
$=72.8\%$

MCQ 531 Mark
A solid consists of a circular cylinder surmounted by a right circular cone. The height of the cone is $h$. If the total height of the solid is $3$ times the volume of the cone, then the height of the cylinder is :
  • A
    $2\text{h}$
  • B
    $\frac{3\text{h}}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{\text{h}}{2}$
  • $\frac{2\text{h}}{2}$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$\frac{2\text{h}}{2}$

Disclaimer : In the the question, the statement given is incorrect.
Instead of total height of solid being equal to $3$ times the volume of cone,
the volume of the total solid should be equal to $3$ times the volume of the cone.
Let $x$ be the height of cylinder.
Since, volume of the total solid should be equal to $3$ times the volume of the cone,
So,
$\frac{1}{3}\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}+\pi\text{r}^2\text{x}=3\Big(\frac{1}{3}\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{3}\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}-\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}+\pi\text{r}^2\text{x}=0$
$\Rightarrow\pi\text{r}^2\text{x}=\frac{2}{3}\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{2}{3}\text{h}$

    $6\ cm$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$2\ cm$
Radius of the cylinder $=\frac{2}{2}=1\text{ cm}$
$\text{h}=16\text{ cm}$
Since twelve solid spheres of the same size are made by melting a solid metallic cylinder of base diameter $2\ cm$ and height $16\ cm,$
$12\times\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3=\pi\text{R}^2\text{h}$
$\Rightarrow12\times\frac{4}{3}\text{r}^3=\text{R}^2\text{h}$
$\Rightarrow12\times\frac{4}{3}\times\Big(\frac{\text{d}}{2}\Big)^3=(1)^2\times16$
$\Rightarrow16\times\Big(\frac{\text{d}}{2}\Big)^3=(1)^2\times16$
$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac{\text{d}}{2}\Big)^3=1$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{d}^3}{8}=1$
$\Rightarrow\text{d}^3=8$
$\Rightarrow\text{d}=\pm2$
Since the diameter connot be negative $, d = 2\ cm.$

    $1 : 2$
  • B
    $2 : 1$
  • C
    $1 : 4$
  • $4 : 1$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$4 : 1$
Let the radius and height of the culinder be $r $ and $h$ respectively.
Since the radius is halved keeping the height the same,
The new radius is $\frac{\text{r}}{2}.$
$\frac{\text{Volume of the new cylinder}}{\text{Volume of the original cylinder}}$
$=\frac{\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}}{\pi\Big(\frac{\text{r}}{2}\Big)^2\text{h}}$
$=\frac{4}{1}$
So, the ratio is $4 : 1$

  • $21\ cm$
  • B
    $23\ cm$
  • C
    $25\ cm$
  • D
    $19\ cm$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$21\ cm$
Given, dimenions of the cuboid $= 49\ cm \times 33\ cm \times 24\ cm$
$\therefore$ Volume of the cuboid $= 49 \times 33 \times 24 = 38808\ cm^3$
[$\because$ volume of chboid $=$ lenth $\times $ breadth $ \times $ height$]$
Let the radius of the sphere is $r,$ then
Volume of the sphere $=\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3$
$\Big[\because\text{volume of the sphere}=\frac{4}{3}\pi\times(\text{radius})^3\Big]$
According to the question,
Volume of the sphere $=$ Volume of the chboid
$\Rightarrow\ \ \frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3=38808$
$\Rightarrow\ \ 4\times\frac{22}{7}\text{r}^3=38808\times3$
$\Rightarrow\ \ \text{r}^3=\frac{38808\times3\times7}{4\times22}=441\times21$
$\Rightarrow\ \ \text{r}^3=21\times21\times21$
$\therefore\ \ \text{r}=21\text { cm}$
Hence, the radius of the sphere is $21\ cm.$

The diameters of the top and the bottom portions of a bucket are $42\ cm$ and $28\ cm$ respectively. If the height of the bucket is $24\ cm,$ then the cost of painting its outer surface at the rate of $50$ paise/ $\mathrm{cm}^2$ is :
  • A
    $Rs. 1582.50$
  • B
    $Rs. 1724.50$
  • $Rs. 1683$
  • D
    $Rs. 1642$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$Rs. 1683$
Diameter of upper and lower portions of a bucket are $42\ cm$ and $28\ cm$
and height $(h) = 24\ cm$

$\therefore\text{r}_1=\frac{42}{2}=21\text{ cm}$
$\text{r}_2=\frac{28}{2}=21\text{ cm}$
$\text{h}=24\text{ cm}$
$\therefore$ slant height $(l)$
$=\sqrt{\text{h}^2+(\text{r}_1-\text{r}_2)^2}$
$=\sqrt{(24)^2+(7)^2}=\sqrt{576+49}$
$=\sqrt{625}=25\text{ cm}$
Now area of outer surface
$\pi(\text{r}_1+\text{r}_2)\text{l}+\pi\text{r}_2^2$
$=\frac{22}{7}(21+14)\times25+\frac{22}{7}\times(14)^2\text{ cm}^2$
$=\frac{22}{7}\times35\times25+\frac{22}{7}\times14\times14\text{ cm}^2$
Rate of polishing $ = 50$ paisa. per $\mathrm{cm}^2$
$\therefore$ Total cost $=3366\times\frac{50}{100}=\text{Rs}.\ 1683$

Let $r_1$ be its radius
Then volume of the larger cone $\Big(\frac{1}{3}\Big)\pi\text{r}_1^2\text{h}_1$
A cone is cut off from the top of the larger cone, such that volume of smaller cone
$\frac{1}{27}$ of that of larger cone
$\therefore\frac{\text{volume of smaller cone}}{\text{Volume of bigger cone}}=\frac{1}{27}$
$=\frac{\frac{1}{3}\pi\text{r}_2^2\text{h}_2}{\frac{1}{3}\pi\text{r}_1^2\text{h}_1}=\frac{1}{27}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{r}_2^2\text{h}_2}{\text{r}_1^2\text{h}_1}=\frac{1}{27}=\Big(\frac{1}{3}\Big)^3$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{h}_2}{\text{h}_1}=\frac{1}{3}\frac{\text{h}_2}{30}=\frac{1}{3}$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}_2=\frac{30}{3}=10$
Height of smaller cone $= 10\ cm$

  • $126$
  • C
    $21$
  • D
    $130$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$126$

  • B
    $16 : 9$
  • C
    $4 : 3$
  • D
    $16^3: 9^3$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$64 : 27$
Given that the surface areas of the two spheres are in the ratio $16 : 9.$
So, $\frac{4\pi\text{r}^2}{4\pi\text{R}^2}=\frac{16}{9}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{r}^2}{\text{R}^2}=\frac{16}{9}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{r}}{\text{R}}=\frac{4}{3}$
Let the volume of the sphere with radius $r$ and $R$ be $\mathrm{V}_1$ and $\mathrm{V}_2$ respectively.
$\frac{\text{V}_1}{\text{V}_2}=\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3}{\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{R}^3}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{V}_1}{\text{V}_2}=\Big(\frac{\text{r}}{\text{R}}\Big)^3$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{V}_1}{\text{V}_2}=\Big(\frac{4}{3}\Big)^3=\frac{64}{27}$

Given, internal diameter of spherical shell $= 4\ cm$
and exiernal diameter of shell $= 8\ cm$
$\therefore$ Internal radius of spherical shell $\text{r}_1=\frac{4}{2}\text{ cm}=2\text{ cm}$
$[\because\text{diameter}=2\times\text{radius}]$
and external radius of shell, $\text{r}_2=\frac{8}{2}=4\text{cm}$
$[\because\text{diameter}=2\times\text{radius}]$

Now, volume of the spherical shell
$=\frac{4}{3}\pi\big[\text{r}^3_2-\text{r}^3_1\big]$
$\left[\because\right.$ volume of the spherical shell $=\frac{4}{3} \pi\left\{(\text { extermal radius })^3\right. - \text{(internal radius}) \left.\left.{ }^3\right\}\right]$
$\frac{4}{3}\pi(4^3-2^3)$
$\frac{4}{3}\pi(64-8)$
$=\frac{224}{3}\pi\text{ cm}^3$
Let height of cone $= h \ cm$
Diameter of the base of cone $= 8\ cm$
$\therefore$ Radius of the base of cone $=\frac{8}{2}=4\text{ cm}$
$[\because\text{diameter}=2\times\text{radius}]$
According to the question,
Volume of cone $=$ Volume of spherical shell
$\Rightarrow\ \ \frac{1}{3}\pi(4)^2\text{ h}=\frac{224}{3}\pi$
$\Rightarrow\ \text{h}=\frac{224}{16}=14\text{ cm}$
$\Big[\because\text{volume of cone}=\frac{1}{3}\times\pi\times(\text{radius})^2\times(\text{height})\Big]$
Hence, the height of the cone is $14\ cm.$

  • $8\ cm$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$8\ cm$
Radius of cylinder $(r_1) = 8\ cm$
and height $(h_1) = 2\ cm$
$\therefore$ Volume $=\pi\text{r}_1^2=\pi\times(8)^2\times2\text{ cm}^3$

Now Volume of cone $128\pi\ \text{ cm}^3$
Height of cone $(h_2) = 6\ cm$
Let $r_2$ be its radius, then
$\frac{1}{3}\pi\text{r}_2^2\text{h}_2=128\pi$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{3}\pi\text{r}_2^2\times6=128\pi$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}_2^2=\frac{128\pi\times3}{\pi\times6}=64=(8)^2$

The height of a conical tent is $14m$ and its floor area is $346.5 \mathrm{~m}^2$. How much canvas, $1.1$ wide, will be required for it?
  • A
    $490m$
  • $525m$
  • C
    $665m$
  • D
    $860m$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$525m$
Area of the floor of a conical tent $=\pi(\text{r})^2$
$\Rightarrow\pi\text{r}^2=346.5$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}^2=\Big(\frac{3465}{10}\times\frac{7}{22}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}^2=\frac{441}{4}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{21}{2}\text{ cm}$
Slant height of the cone, $\text{l}=\sqrt{\text{r}^2+\text{h}^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{l}=\sqrt{\Big(\frac{21}{2}\Big)^2+14^2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{l}=\sqrt{\frac{1225}{4}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{l}=\frac{32}{2}\text{m}$
Area of the canvas $=$ curved surface area of the conical tent
$\Rightarrow$ Area of the canvas $=\pi\text{r}\text{l}$
$\Rightarrow$ Area of the canvas $=\frac{22}{7}\times\frac{21}{2}\times\frac{35}{2}=577.5\text{m}^2$
Lenght of the canvas $=\frac{\text{Area of the canvas}}{\text{Width of the canvas}}$
