The volume of the greatest sphere that can be cut off from a cylindrical $\log$ of wood of base radius $1\ cm$ and height $5\ cm$ is :
  • $\frac{4}{3}\pi$
  • B
    $\frac{10}{3}\pi$
  • C
    $5\pi$
  • D
    $\frac{20}{3}\pi$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\frac{4}{3}\pi$
Radius of cylindrical $\log (r) = 1\ cm$
and height $(h) = 5\ cm$
The radius of the greatest sphere cut off from the cylindrical $\log$ will be $=$ radius of
the $\log = 1\ cm$
$\therefore$ Volume $=\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3$
$=\frac{4}{3}\pi(1)^3=\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{ cm}^3$

MCQ 1531 Mark
The area of the base of a rectangular tank is $6500 \mathrm{~cm}^2$ and the volume of water contained in it is $2.6 \mathrm{~m}^3$. The depth of water in the tank is :
  • A
    $3.5m$
  • $4m$
  • C
    $5m$
  • D
    $8m$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$4m$
Area of the base of the rectangular tank
$=6500\text{cm}^2$
$=\frac{(6500)}{100^2}\text{m}^2$
Let the depth of the water be $h$ metres.
So, $\frac{(6500)}{(100^2)}\times\text{h}=2.6$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=4\text{m}$
Hence, the depth of the water is $4m.$

  • A
    $12\ cm$
  • $24\ cm$
  • C
    $30\ cm$
  • D
    $36\ cm$
Answer

$24\ cm$
Let radii of $3$ metallic spheres are $r_1=6 \mathrm{~cm}$
$\mathrm{r}_2=8 \mathrm{~cm}$
$\mathrm{r}_3=10 \mathrm{~cm}$
Volume of first sphere $=\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}_1^3=\frac{4}{3}\pi(6)^3$
$=\frac{4}{3}\times216\pi\text{ cm}^3$
$=\frac{864}{3}\pi\text{cm}^3$
Volume of secound sphere
$=\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}_2^3=\frac{4}{3}\pi\times(8)^3\text{ cm}^3$
$=\frac{4}{3}\times512\pi=\frac{2048}{3}\pi\text{ cm}^3$
Volume of third sphere
$=\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}_3^3=\frac{4}{3}\pi(10)^3\text{ cm}^3$
$=\frac{4}{3}\pi\times1000=\frac{4000}{3}\pi\text{ cm}^3$
$\therefore$ Sum of volume of the $3$ sphere
$=\frac{864}{3}\pi+\frac{2048}{3}\pi+\frac{4000}{3}\pi$
$=\frac{864+2048+4000}{3}\pi=\frac{6912}{3}\pi\ \text{cm}^3$
Let $R$ be its radius, then
$\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{R}^3=\frac{6912\pi}{3}$
$\text{R}^3=\frac{6912\pi}{3}\times\frac{3}{4\pi}$
$=1728=(12)^3$
$\therefore R = 12\ cm$
$\therefore$ Diameter of the new sphere $= 2R $
$= 2 \times 12 = 24\ cm$

The diameter of a sphere is $6\ cm$. It is melted and drawn in to a wire of diameter $2\ mm$. The length of the wire is :
  • A
    $12m$
  • B
    $18m$
  • $36m$
  • D
    $66m$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$36m$
Diameter of sphere $= 6\ cm$
$\therefore$ Radius $(r) =\frac{6}{2}=3\text{ cm}$
Volume $=\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3=\frac{4}{3}\pi\times(3)^3\text{ cm}^3$
$=\frac{4}{3}\pi\times3\times3\times3=36\pi\text{ cm}^3$
Diameter of wire $= 2mm$
$\therefore$ Radius $(r) =\frac{2}{2}=1\text{ mm}=\frac{1}{10}\text{ cm}$
let $h$ be its length, then
$\pi\text{r}_2^2\text{h}=36\pi$
$\Rightarrow\pi\times\Big(\frac{1}{10}\Big)^2\text{h}=36\pi$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\pi}{100}\text{h}=36\pi$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=\frac{36\pi\times100}{\pi}=3600\text{ cm}$
$\therefore$ height or lenght of wire $= 3600\ cm$
$=\frac{3600}{100}=36\text{m}$

MCQ 1601 Mark
A hollow sphere of internal and external diameters $4\ cm$ and $8\ cm$ respectively is melted into a cone of base diameter $8\ cm$. The height of the cone is :
  • A
    $12\ cm$
  • $14\ cm$
  • C
    $15\ cm$
  • D
    $18\ cm$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$14\ cm$
Internal diameter of a hollow sphere $= 4\ cm$
and external diameter $= 8\ cm$
$\therefore$ Internal radius (r) $=\Big(\frac{4}{2}\Big)=2\text{ cm}$
and external radius $(R) =\Big(\frac{8}{2}\Big)=4\text{ cm}$
$\therefore$ Volume of metal used $=\Big(\frac{4}{3}\Big)\pi(\text{R}^3-\text{r}^3)$
$=\frac{4}{3}\pi(4^3-2^3)=\frac{4}{3}\pi(64-8)\text{cm}^3$
$=56\times\frac{4}{3}\pi=\frac{224}{3}\pi\ \text{ cm}^3$
$\therefore$ Volume of cone $=\frac{224}{3}\pi\ \text{ cm}^3$
Diameter of cone $= 8\ cm$
$\therefore$ Radius ($r_1$) $=\frac{8}{2}=4\text{ cm}$
$\therefore\frac{1}{3}\pi\text{r}_1^2\text{h}_1=\frac{224}{3}\pi$
$\Rightarrow\frac{1}{3}\pi(4)^2\text{h}_1=\frac{224}{3}\pi$
$\Rightarrow\frac{16}{3}\pi\text{h}_1=\frac{224}{3}\pi$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}_1=\frac{224\pi}{3}\times\frac{3}{16}\pi=14$
$\therefore$ Height of cone $= 14\ cm$

A sphere of diameter $18\ cm$ is dropped into a cylindrical vessel of diameter $36\ cm,$ partly filled with water. If the sphere is completely submerged, then the water level rises by :
  • $3\ cm$
  • B
    $4\ cm$
  • C
    $5\ cm$
  • D
    $6\ cm$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$3\ cm$
Let the rise in the water level be $h$.
Radii of the sphere and cylindrical vessel are :
$\text{r}=\frac{18}{2}=9\text{ cm}$ and $\text{R}=\frac{36}{2}=18\text{ cm}$
Volume of the water level risen $=$ volume of the sphere
$\Rightarrow\pi\text{R}^2\text{h}=\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=\frac{4\times9\times9\times9}{3\times18\times18}$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=3\text{ cm}$
Hence, the water level rises by $3\ cm.$

(c) : Let the radius and the height of the cylinder are $r$ and $h$ respectively.
So, radius of the cone is $r$ and height of the cone is $3 h$.
$\therefore \quad$ Volume of the cylinder $=\pi r^2 h$
Volume of the cone $=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 3 h=\pi r^2 h$
So, required ratio $=\frac{\pi r^2 h}{\pi r^2 h}=1: 1$

The total surface area of a cube is $32 \frac{2}{3} m ^2$. The volume of the cube (in $m ^3$ ) is
  • $12 \frac{19}{27}$
  • B
    $19 \frac{12}{27}$
  • C
    $12 \frac{7}{27}$
  • D
    None of these
Answer
Correct option: A.
$12 \frac{19}{27}$
(a) : Let the side of the cube be $x m$.
$\therefore$ Total surface area $=6 x^2 m ^2$
$\Rightarrow \quad 6 x^2=32 \frac{2}{3} \Rightarrow 6 x^2=\frac{98}{3}$
$\Rightarrow x^2=\frac{98}{3} \times \frac{1}{6}=\frac{49}{9} \Rightarrow x=\frac{7}{3} m$.
$\therefore \quad$ Volume of the cube $=x^3 m ^3$
$
=\left(\frac{7}{3}\right)^3 m ^3=\frac{343}{27} m ^3=12 \frac{19}{27} m ^3 \text {. }
