A cylindrical bucket $28\ cm$ in diameter and $72\ cm$ high is full of water. The water is emptied into a rectangular tank $66\ cm$ long and $28\ cm$ wide. Find the height of the water level in the tank.
AnswerLet $h$ be the height of rectangular tank = volume of cylindrical bucket
$66\times28\times\text{h}=\pi\Big(\frac{28}{2}\Big)^2\times72$
$66\times28\times\text{h}=\frac{22}{7}\times14\times14\times72$
$\text{h}=\frac{22\times2\times14\times72}{66\times28}$
$\text{h}=24\text{cm}$
Hence, the height of rectangular tank is $24\ cm$.

A rectangular tank $15m$ long and $11m$ broad is required to receive entire liquid contents from a fully cylindrical tank of internal diameter $21m$ and length $5m$. Find the least height of the tank that will serve the purpose.
AnswerSuppose height of the rectangular tank is equal to $h$.
Length of the tank $= 15m$
Breadth of the tank $= 11m$
Further,
length of cylindrical tank $= 5m$
Radius of cylindrical tank $=\frac{21}{2}\text{m}$
To find out the least height of the tank, equate the volumes of two tanks.
$15\times11\times\text{h}\times\pi\Big(\frac{21}{2}\Big)^2\times5$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=\frac{22}{7}\times\frac{21}{2}\times\frac{21}{2}\times\frac{5}{15}\times\frac{1}{11}$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=\frac{21}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=10.5$.
Hence, the least height of the tank is equal to $10.5$.

A spherical ball of iron has been melted and made into smaller balls. If the radius of each smaller ball is one-fourth of the radius of the original one, how many such balls can be made?
AnswerLet the radius of larger ball = $r$
Then volume $=\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3$
Now radius of one of the smaller balls $=\frac{\text{r}}{4}$
$\therefore$ Volume of each smaller balls $=\frac{4}{3}\pi\Big(\frac{\text{r}}{4}\Big)^3$
$=\frac{4}{3}\pi\frac{\text{r}^3}{64}=\frac{1}{64}\Big(\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3\Big)$
$\therefore$ Number of balls can be made
$=\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3\div\frac{1}{64}\Big(\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3\Big)$
$=1\div\frac{1}{64}=1\times\frac{64}{1}=64$

$25$ circular plates, each of radius $10.5\ cm$ and thickness $1.6\ cm$, are placed one above the other to form a solid circular cylinder. Find the curved surface area and
the volume of the cylinder so formed.
AnswerWe have $25$ circular plates, each with radius $= 10.5\ cm$ and thickness $= 1.6\ cm.$
These plates are stacked on top of one another.
So, the total height of the arrangement becomes $= 1.6 \times 25 = 40\ cm$
Volume of this arrangement $=\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}=\pi(10.5)^2\times40=13860\text{cm} ^2$
Curved surface area $=2\pi\text{rh}=2\pi\times10.5\times40=2640\text{cm}^2$
Hence, Volume $= 13860\ cm^3$ and $C.S.A$ $= 2640\ cm^2$

A solid metallic sphere of radius $5.6\ cm$ is melted and solid cones each of radius $2.8\ cm$ and height $3.2\ cm$ are made. Find the number of such cones formed.
AnswerLet the number of such cones formed be $n$
Now, volume of solid metallic sphere = volume of n solid cones
$\Rightarrow\frac{4}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times(5.6)^3=\text{n}\times\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times(2.8)^2\times3.2$
$\Rightarrow4\times(5.6)^3=\text{n}\times(2.8)^2\times3.2$
$\Rightarrow\text{n}=28$

$150$ spherical marbles, each of diameter $1.4\ cm$ are dropped in a cylindrical vessel of diameter $7\ cm$ containing some water, which are completely immersed in water. Find the rise in the level of water in the vessel.
AnswerLet the rise in the level of water in the vessel be $h\ cm$.
Now, volume of $150$ spherical maeble = volume of water displace in vessel
$\Rightarrow150\times\frac{4}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times(\frac{1.4}{2})^3=\frac{22}{7}\times(\frac{7}{2})^2\times\text{h}$
$\Rightarrow200\times(0.7)^3=(\frac{7}{2})^2\times\text{h}$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=5.6\text{cm}$

Find the depth of a cylindrical tank of radius $28m$, if its capacity is equal to that of a rectangular tank of size $28m \times 16m \times 11m.$
AnswerLet $x$ be the depth of cylindrical tank.
The radius of tank $r = 28m$.
Since,
The volume of cylindrical tank = volume of rectangular tank
$\pi\text{r}^2\text{x}=28\times16\times11$
$\Rightarrow\frac{22}{7}\times28\times28\times\text{x}=28\times16\times11$
$\text{x}=\frac{28\times16\times11\times7}{22\times28\times28}$
$\text{x}=\frac{16}{8}$
$\text{x}=2\text{m}$
Thus, the depth of cylindrical tank $= 2m$.
