Question 12 Marks

66 cubic cm of silver is drawn into a wire 1mm in diameter. Calculate the length of the wire in metres.

Answer

We have,
Radius of wire, $\text{r}=\frac{1}{2}=0.5\text{mm}=0.05\text{cm}$
Let the length of the wire be l.
As,
Volume of the wire $= 66cm^3$
$\Rightarrow\pi\text{r}^2\text{l}=66$
$\Rightarrow\frac{22}{7}\times0.05\times0.05\times\text{l}=66$
$\Rightarrow\text{l}=66\times\frac{7}{22\times0.05\times0.05}$
$\Rightarrow\text{l}=8400\text{cm}=84\text{m}$
So, the length of the wire is 84 m.

The ratio between the radius of the base and the height of a cylinder is $2 : 3$. If the volume of the cylinder is $12936cm^3$, then find the radius of the base of the cylinder.

Answer

Let the radius of the base and the height of the cylinder be r and h, respectively.
We have,
$r : h = 2 : 3$ i.e. $\frac{\text{r}}{\text{h}}=\frac{2}{3}$
or $\text{h}=\frac{3\text{r}}{2}\ ...(\text{i})$
As,
Volume of the cylinder $= 12936cm^3$
$\Rightarrow\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}=12936$
$\Rightarrow\frac{22}{7}\times\text{r}^2\times\frac{3\text{r}}{2}=12936$ $[\text{Using}(\text{i})]$
$\Rightarrow\frac{33}{7}\times\text{r}^3=12936$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}^3=12936\times\frac{7}{33}$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}^3=2744$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}^3\sqrt[3]{2744}$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=\sqrt[3]{2744}$
$\therefore\text{r}=14\text{cm}$
So, the radius of the base of the cylinder is 14cm.

and $\text{h}_2:\text{h}_2=5:3$ or $\frac{\text{h}_1}{\text{h}_2}=\frac{5}{3}\ ....(\text{ii})$
Now,
The ratio of the volumes of the cylinders $=\frac{\text{Volume of the first cylinder}}{\text{Volume of the second cylinder}}$
$=\frac{\pi\text{r}_1^2\text{h}_1}{\pi\text{r}_2^2\text{h}_2}$
$=\Big(\frac{\text{r}_1}{\text{r}_2}\Big)^2\times\frac{\text{h}_1}{\text{h}_2}$

The surface areas of a sphere and a cube are equal. Find the ratio of their volumes.

Answer

Surface area of the sphere $=4\pi\text{r}^2$
Surface area of the cube $=6\text{a}^2$
Therefore
$4\pi\text{r}^2=6\text{a}^2$
$\Rightarrow2\pi\text{r}^2=3\text{a}^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}^2=\frac{3\text{a}^2}{2\pi}$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=\sqrt{\frac{3}{2\pi}\text{a}}$
Ratio of their volumes = $=\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3}{\text{a}^3}=\frac{4\pi\text{r}^3}{3\text{a}^3}$
$=\frac{4\pi}{3\text{a}^3}\times\frac{3\sqrt{3}\text{a}^3}{2\pi\sqrt{2\pi}}\Big[\sqrt{\frac{3}{2\pi}}\text{a}\Big]$
$=\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}\pi}$
$=\frac{2\times\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}\times\frac{\sqrt{22}}{\sqrt{7}}}$
$=\frac{2\times\sqrt{3}\times\sqrt{7}}{\sqrt{2}\times\sqrt{2}\times\sqrt{11}}$

Question 82 Marks

A spherical shell of lead whose external and internal diameters are 24cm and 18cm, is melted and recast into a right circular cylinder 37cm high. Find the diameter of the base of the cylinder.

Answer

External diameter of the shell = 24cm
External radius of the shell = 12cm
Internal diameter of the shell = 18cm
Internal radius of the shell = 9cm
Volume of the shell $=\frac{4}{3}\pi(12^3-9^3)=\frac{4}{3}\pi(1728-729)$
$=\frac{4}{3}\pi\times(999)=4\pi\times(333)\text{cm}^3$
Height of cylinder = 37cm
Let radius of cylinder be rem.
Volume of cylinder $=\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}=37\pi\text{h}^2\text{cm}^3$
Volume of the shell = Volume of cylinder
Or, $4\pi\times(333)=37\pi\text{r}^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}^2=\frac{4\times333}{37}=4\times9$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}\sqrt{4\times9}=\sqrt{36}=6\text{cm}$
So, diameter of the base of the cylinder = 2r = 12cm.

Let the radius of the resulting sphere be R.
As,
Volume of resulting sphere = Volume of three metallic spheres
$\Rightarrow\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{R}^3=\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}_1^3+\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}_2^3+\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}_3^3$
$\Rightarrow\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{R}^3=\frac{4}{3}\pi\big(\text{r}_1^3+\text{r}_2^3+\text{r}_3^3\big)$
$\Rightarrow\text{R}^3=\text{r}_1^3+\text{r}_2^3+\text{r}_3^3$
$\Rightarrow\text{R}^3=6^3+8^3+10^3$
$\Rightarrow\text{R}^3=216+512+1000$
$\Rightarrow\text{R}^3=1728$
$\Rightarrow\text{R}=\sqrt[3]{1728}$

The height of the cone, h = 20cm
Let the radius of the sphere be R.
As,
Volume of sphere = Volume of cone
$\Rightarrow\frac{3}{4}\pi\text{R}^3=\frac{1}{3}\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}$
$\Rightarrow\text{R}^3=\frac{\pi\text{r}^2\times3}{3\times4\pi}$
$\Rightarrow\text{R}^3=\frac{\text{r}^2\text{h}}{4}$
$\Rightarrow\text{R}^3=\frac{5\times5\times20}{4}$
$\Rightarrow\text{R}^3=125$
$\Rightarrow\text{R}=\sqrt[3]{125}$
$\Rightarrow\text{R}=5\text{cm}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}=\sqrt[3]{\frac{8}{27}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}=\frac{2}{3}\ ...(1)$
Now,
The ratio of the surface areas of the cubes $=\frac{\text{Surface area of the first cube}}{\text{Surface area of the second cube}}$
$=\frac{6\text{a}^2}{6\text{b}^2}$
$=\Big(\frac{\text{a}}{\text{b}}\Big)^2$

Answer

We have,
The radius of the copper rod, $\text{R}=\frac{2}{2}=1\text{cm},$
The height of the copper rod, H = 10cm and
The height of the wire, h = 10m = 1000cm
Let the radius of the wire be r.
As,
Volume of the wire = Volume of the rod
$\Rightarrow\pi\text{r}^3\text{h}=\pi\text{R}^2\text{H}$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}^2\text{h}=\text{R}^2\text{H}$
$\Rightarrow\text{r} ^2\times1000=1\times10$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}^2=\frac{1}{100}$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{100}}$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=\frac{1}{10}$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=0.1\text{cm}$
$\Rightarrow$ The diameter of the wire = 2r = 2 × 0.1 = 0.2cm
$\therefore$ The thickness of the wire = 0.2cm
So, the thickness of the wire is 0.2cm or 2mm.

Question 292 Marks

Two cubes, each of volume $64cm^3,$ are joined end to end. Find the total surface area of the resulting cuboid.

Answer

Volume of the cube $= a^3$
Therefore,
$a^3 = 64$
$\Rightarrow a^3 = (4)^3$
$\Rightarrow a = 4cm$
Each side of the cube = 4cm
Then,
Length of the cuboid ⇒ (2 × 4)cm = 8cm
Breadth of the cuboid = 4cm
Height of the cuboid = 4cm
Total surface area of the cuboid = 2(lb+bh+lh)
$=2[(8 \times 4) + (4 \times 4) + (8 \times 4)]cm^2$
$=(2 \times 80)cm^2$
$= 160cm^2$

Question 302 Marks

The radius of the base and the height of a solid right circular cylinder are in the ratio $2 : 3$ and its volume is $1617cm^3$. Find the total surface area of the cylinder. $\Big[\text{Take}\ \pi=\frac{22}{7}.\Big]$

Answer

Let the radius of the cylinder be 2x cm and its height be 3x cm.
Then. volume of the cylinder $=\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}$
$=\frac{22}{7}\times(2\text{x})^2\times3\text{x}$
Therefore
$\frac{22}{7}\times(2\text{x})^2\times3\text{x}=1617$
$\Rightarrow\frac{22}{7}\times4\text{x}^2\times3\text{x}=1617$
$\Rightarrow\frac{22}{7}\times12\text{x}^3=1617$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^3=\Big(1617\times\frac{7}{22}\times12\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^3\Big(\frac{7}{2}\times\frac{7}{2}\times\frac{7}{2}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}^3=\Big(\frac{7}{2}\Big)^3$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{7}{2}$
Now, $\text{r}=7\text{cm}$ and $\text{h}=\frac{21}{2}\text{cm}$
Hence, the total surface area of the cylinder.
$(2\pi\text{rh}+2\pi\text{r})^2$
$=2\pi\text{r}(\text{h}+\text{r})$
$=2\times\frac{22}{7}\times7\times\Big(\frac{21}{2}+7\Big)\text{cm}^2$
$=\Big(2\times\frac{22}{7}\times7\times\frac{35}{2}\Big)\text{cm}^2$
$=770\text{cm}^2$

Question 312 Marks

The volume of a right circular cylinder with its height equal to the radius is$25\frac{1}{7}\text{cm}^3$ Find the height of the cylinder.

Answer

We have,
Height = Base radius i.e. h = r
As,
Volume of the cylinder $25\frac{1}{7}\text{cm}^3$
$\Rightarrow\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}=\frac{176}{7}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{22}{7}\times\text{h}^2\times\text{h}=\frac{176}{7}$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}^3=\frac{176\times7}{7\times22}$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}^3=8$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=\sqrt[3]{8}$
$\therefore\text{h}=2\text{cm}$
So, the height of the cylinder is 2cm.
