  • $1386\ cm^2$
  • C
    $2079\ cm^2$
  • D
    $693\ cm^2$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$1386\ cm^2$
Given,
Volume of sphere $=4851=\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3$
$4851=\frac{4}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times\text{r}^3$

Three cubes of metal with edges $3\ cm, 4\ cm$ and $5\ cm$ respectively are melted to form a single cube. The lateral surface area of the new cube formed is.
  • A
    $256\ cm^2$
  • B
    $128\ cm^2$
  • C
    $72\ cm^2$
  • $144\ cm^2$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$144\ cm^2$

Volume of the new cube formed $=$ total volume of the three cubes
Suppose that a cm is the edge of the new cube, then
$a^3=3^3+4^3+5^3=27+64+125=216=6 \mathrm{~cm}$
$\therefore$ Lateral surface area of the new cube $= 4 a^2=4 \times 6 \times 6=144 \mathrm{~cm}^2$

How many lead shots, each $0.3\ cm$ in diameter, can be made from a cuboid of dimension $9\ cm × 11\ cm × 12\ cm?$
  • A
    $7200$
  • B
    $8400$
  • C
    $72000$
  • $84000$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$84000$

Let the number of lead shots be $n.$
Volume of the cuboid $= n\ ×$ volume of each lead shot
$\Rightarrow9\times11\times12=\text{n}\times\frac{4}{3}\pi\Big(\frac{0.3}{2}\Big)^3$
$...\Big(\text{since}\ \text{radius}=\frac{0.3}{2}\text{cm}\Big)$
$\Rightarrow9\times11\times12=\text{n}\times\frac{4}{3}\times\frac{22}{7}\times\frac{27}{8000}$
$\Rightarrow\text{n}=84000$
Thus, there are $84000$ lesd shots.

The mid-value of a class interval is $42$ and the class size is $10.$ The lower and upper limits are:
  • $37-47$
  • B
    $37.5-47.5$
  • C
    $36.5-47.5$
  • D
    $36.5-46.5$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$37-47$

Let the lower limit be $x.$
Here,
Class size $= 10$
$\therefore$ Upper limit $=$ Class size $+$ Lower limit
Upper limit $= (x + 10)$
Mid value of the class interval $= 42$
$\therefore\frac{\text{x}+\text{x}+10}{2}=42$
$\Rightarrow\frac{2\text{x}+10}{2}=42$
$\Rightarrow2\text{x}+10=84$
$\Rightarrow2\text{x}=74$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=37$
Thus, we have:
Lower limit $= 37$
Upper limit $= 37 + 10 = 47$

The total surface area of a cube is $96\ cm^2.$ Find its lateral surface area.
  • $64\ cm^2$
  • B
    $512\ cm^2$
  • C
    $27\ cm^2$
  • D
    $32\ cm^2$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$64\ cm^2$

Total surface area of cube $=6 a ^2$ (let a be a side of cube)
So, $6 a^2=96$
$a^2=\frac{96}{6}=16$
$a=4 cm$
Now, lateral surface area of cube is $4 a^2$
So, $4 a^2=4 \times(4)^2$
$=4 \times 16$
$=64 cm^2$

The number of coins $1.5\ cm$ in diameter and $0.2\ cm$ thick to be melted to form a right circular cylinder of height $10\ cm$ and diameter $4.5\ cm$ is:
  • A
    $540$
  • $450$
  • C
    $380$
  • D

Answer
Correct option: B.
$450$
Let the required number of coins be $n.$
Since the $n$ coins are melted form a right circular cylinder,
$\text{n}\times\pi\times\Big(\frac{1.5}{2}\Big)^2\times0.2=\pi\times\Big(\frac{4.5}{2}\Big)^2\times10$
$\Rightarrow\text{n}\times\Big(\frac{15}{10}\Big)^2\times\frac{2}{10}=\Big(\frac{45}{20}\Big)^2\times10$
$\Rightarrow\text{n}\times\frac{9}{16}\times\frac{2}{10}=\frac{81}{16}\times10$
$\Rightarrow\text{n}=\frac{81\times10\times16\times10}{16\times9\times2}$

$2.2\ dm^3$ of lead is to be drawn into a cylindrical wire $0.50\ cm$ in diameter. The length of the wire is:
  • A
    $110m$
  • $112m$
  • C
    $98m$
  • D
    $124m$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$112m$
We know that $1dm = 10\ cm.$
Given that $2.2\ dm^3$ is drawn into a cylindrical wire.
That is, $(2.2 × 1000) = 2200\ cm^3$ is drawn into a cylindrical wire.
Let the radius of the wire be r and the height be h.
Volume of the cylindrical $= 2200$
$\Rightarrow\pi\text{r}^2\text{h}=2200$
$\Rightarrow\frac{22}{7}\times0.25\times0.25\times\text{h}=2200 ...($Since the diameter $= 0.50\ cm)$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=11200\text{cm}$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=112\text{m}$
So, the length of the wire is $112m.$

  • B
    $75\%$
  • C
    $100\%$
  • $125\%$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$125\%$

$=\frac{27\text{a}^2-12\text{a}^2}{2}$
$=\frac{15\text{a}^2}{2}$
Percentage increase in its surface area
$=\frac{\text{Increase}\ \text{in}\ \text{the}\ \text{surface}\ \text{area}}{\text{original}\ \text{surface}}\times100$

Volume of the wire $ = (2.2 × 10 × 10 × 10)\ cm^3= 2200\ cm^3$
Radius of the wire $= 0.25\ cm =\frac{25}{100}\text{cm}=\frac{1}{4}\text{cm}$
Let the length of wire be $h\ cm.$ Then,
$\pi\times\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{1}{4}\text{h}=2200\Rightarrow\frac{22}{7}\times\frac{1}{16}\times\text{h}=2200$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=(2200\times\frac{7}{22}\times{16})\text{cm}=\Big(\frac{11200}{100}\Big)\text{m}=112\text{m}$

A spherical ball of radius $3\ cm$ is melted and recast into three spherical balls. The radii of two of these balls are $1.5\  cm$ and $2\  cm.$ The radius of the third ball is.
  • A
    $1.5cm$
  • B
    $0.5cm$
  • $2.5cm$
  • D
    $1cm$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$2.5cm$
Volume of a sphere $=\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3$
Volume of a spherical ball $=\frac{4}{3}\pi(3)^3\text{cm}^3$
Volume of three balls $=\frac{4}{3}\pi(1.5)^3+\frac{4}{3}\pi(2)^3+\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3$
$\Rightarrow\frac{4}{3}\pi(3.375+8+\text{r}^3)$ (On recasting this sphere into three spherical balls, Volume Will remain same)
$\Rightarrow\frac{4}{3}\pi(3.375+8+\text{r}^3)​​=\frac{4}{3}\pi(3)^3$
$\Rightarrow11.375+\text{r}^3=27$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}^3=15.626$

The height of a cone of diameter $10\ cm$ and slant height $13\ cm,$ is.
  • A
    $13\text{cm}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{194}\text{cm}$
  • $12\text{cm}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{69}\text{cm}$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$12\text{cm}$

Diameter of cone $= 10\ cm$
Radius of cone $\text{r}=\frac{10}{2\text{cm}}=5\text{cm}$
Slant height of cone, $l = 13\ cm$
Suppose height of the cone is $h$
$⇒ h^2 = l^2− r^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=\sqrt{13^2-5^2}=\sqrt{169-25}=\sqrt{144}$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=12\text{cm}$

A cube whose volume is $\frac18$ cubic centimeter is placed on a cube whose volume is $1\ cm^3$. The two cubes are then placed on top a third cube whose volume is $8\ cm^3$. The heigght of the stacked cubes is:
  • $3.5\ cm$
  • B
    $3\ cm$
  • C
    $7 \ cm$
  • D
    None of these.
Answer
Correct option: A.
$3.5\ cm$

Let,
$V _1, V_2, V_3 \rightarrow$ Volume of the three cubes
$a_1, a_2, a_3 \rightarrow$ Side of the three cubes
We know that,
$a^3=V$
So,
$a _1^3 = V$
$a _1^3 =\frac{1}{8}$
$a _1 =\frac{1}{2} \ cm$
Similarly,
$a _2^3 =1$
$a _2 =1\ cm$
And;
$a _3^3 =8$
$a _2 =2\ cm$
So the height of the resulting structure,
$=\frac{1}{2}+1+2$
$=0.5+1+2$
$=3.5\ cm$
The height of the structure is $3.5\ cm$ .
Hence, the correct choice is $(a)$.

Let $V_1$ be the volume of the cylinder with radius $r_1$ and height $h_1$, then
$V _1=\pi r _1^2 h_1 \ldots( i )$
Now, let $V_2$ be the volume after changing the dimension, then
$\text{r}^2=\text{r}_1,\text{h}_2=2\text{h}_1$

  • $15m$
  • B
    $16m$
  • C
    $10m$
  • D
    $12m$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$15m$

Given, dimensions of a room, $l = 10m, b = 10m, h = 5m$
$\therefore$ Length of the longest pole = Diagonal of a cuboid (room)
$=\sqrt{\text{l}^2+\text{b}^2+\text{h}^2}$
$=\sqrt{(10)^2+(10)^2+(5)^2}$
$=\sqrt{100+100+25}$
