Find the area of the circular shaped photo frame whose radius 28 cm. If the cost of decoration is ₹ 3 per sq. cm., find total cost of decoration. |
|
Answer» Radius of the circle = 28 cm Area = πr2 = \(\frac {22}7\) × 28 × 28 = 2464 cm2 Circumference of the photo frame 2πr = 2 x \(\frac {22}7\) × × 28 = 176 cm ∴ Cost of decorative piece at the rate of ₹ 3 per cm is 176 × 3 = ₹ 528 |

The radius of a circular-shaped park is 40 m. A path of width 7 m. is played around outside the park. Find the area of the circular path. |
|
Answer» Given the radius of a park r = 40 m Area of inner circle = πr2 = \(\frac {22}{7} \times 40 \times 40\) = \(\frac{35200}{7}\) = Area of outer circle = πr2 = \(\frac{22}{7} \times 47\times47\) =\(\frac {48,598} {7}\) = 6942.57 sq.m Area of the path = Outer circle area – Inner circle area = 6942.57 – 5028.57 ∴ Area of circular path = 1914 sq.m |
|

Find the path area of circular shaped grassland of radius 42 m where width of the path is 7 m. around and outside the circle. Find the area of path and total cost of flooring, if the cost of flooring ₹ 150 per sq.m. |
|
Answer» Radius of circular floor = 42 m Width around it = 7 m Radius of outer circle = 42 + 7 = 49 m Area of outside path = Area of outer circle – Area of inner circle Area of inner circle = πr2 = \(\frac {22}7\) × 42 × 42 Area of the outer circle = πr2 = \(\frac {22}7\) × 49 × 49 Area of floor = \(\frac {22}7\)(49 × 49 – 42× 42) = \(\frac {22}7\)(2401 – 1764) = \(\frac {22}7\)× 637 = 2002 m2 ∴ Cost of flooring at the rate of ₹ 150 per sq.m is 2002 × 150 = ₹ 300300 |

In fig., an equilateral triangle ABC of side 6 cm has been inscribed in a circle. Find the area of the shaded region. (Take π = 3.14). |
|
Answer» Given, Side of the equilateral triangle = 6 cm And, The area of the equilateral triangle = √3/4(side)2 = √3/4(6)2 = √3/4(36) = 9√3 cm2 Let us mark the center of the circle as O, OA and OB are the radii of the circle. In triangle BOD, sin 60o = BD/ OB √3/2 = 3/ OB OB = 2√3 cm = r Therefore, The area of shaded region = Area of the circle – area of the equilateral triangle = πr2 – 9√3 = 3.14 x (2√3)2 – 9√3 = 3.14 x 12 – 9 x 1.732 = 37.68 – 15.588 = 22.092 cm2 |

In figure, AB is a diameter of the circle, AC = 6 cm and BC = 8 cm. Find the area of the shaded region. (use π = 3.14) |
|
Answer» According to the question, AC = 6 cm and BC = 8 cm A triangle in a semi-circle with hypotenuse as diameter is right angled triangle. Using Pythagoras theorem in right angled triangle ACB, (AB)2 = (AC)2 + (CB)2 (AB)2 = (6)2 + (8)2 ⇒(AB)2 = 36 + 64 ⇒(AB)2 = 100 ⇒(AB)= 10 ∴ Diameter of the circle = 10 cm Thus, Radius of the circle = 5 cm Area of circle = πr2 = π(5)2 = 25π cm2 = 25 × 3.14 cm2 = 78.5 cm2 We know that, Area of the right angled triangle = ( ½ ) × Base × Height = (½) × AC × CB = (½) × 6 × 8 = 24 cm2 Now, Area of the shaded region = Area of the circle – Area of the triangle = (78.5-24)cm2 = 54.5cm2 |
|
| 121759. |

Find the number of integers greater than 7000 that can be formed with the digits 3, 5, 7, 8 and 9 where no digits are repeated. [Hint: Besides 4-digit integers greater than 7000, five digit integers are always greater than 7000.] |
|
Answer» According to the question, Digits that can be used = 3,5,7,8,9 Since, no digits can be repeated, The number of integers is 5P5 = 5! = 120 For a four-digit integer to be greater than 7000, The four-digit integer should begin with 7,8 or 9. The number of such integer = 3 × 4P3 =3 × 4P3 = 3(24) =72 Therefore, the total no of ways = 120+72 = 192 |

Find the number of integers greater than 7000 that can be formed with the digits 3, 5, 7, 8 and 9 where no digits are repeated. |
|
Answer» We have to find the number of integers greater than 7000 with the digits 3,5, 7, 8 and 9. So, with these digits, we can make maximum five-digit numbers because repetition is not allowed. Since all the five-digit numbers are greater than 7000, we have Number of five-digit integers = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120 A four-digit integer is greater than 7000 if thousandth place has any one of 7, 8 and 9. Thus, thousandth place can be filled in 3 ways. The remaining three places can be filled from remaining four digits in 4P3 ways. So, total number of four-digit integers = 3x 4P3 = 3 x 4 x 3 x 2 = 72 Total number of integers = 120 + 72 = 192 |

With the increase in temperature the resistivity of semiconductor is A) Increases B) Decreases C) Remains constant D) Become zero |
|
Answer» The correct option is A) Increases. The resistivity of conductors increases with rise in temperature. As the temperature of the conductor increases, the average speed of the electrons acting as the current carriers increases. This in result increases the number of collisions and the average time of collisions decreases with temperature. |

The stress-strain graphs for materials A and B are shown in Figure.The graphs are drawn to the same scale. 1. Which of the materials has the greater Young’s modulus? 2. Which of the two is the stronger material? |
|
Answer» 1. Material A has greater Young’s modulus as the slope of the graph of material A is greater than material B. Young’s Modulus = Y = Slope = \(\frac {stress}{strain}\) ∴ Material A has greater Young’s Modulus. 2. From the graph it can be approximated that the stress at the fracture point for material A is higher than material B, thus material A is stronger. |

Explain the dependence of evaporation on temperature of liquid. |
|
Answer» 1. If the temperature of the liquid is higher, more is the average kinetic energy. 2. This implies that the number of fast moving molecules is more. 3. Hence the rate of losing such molecules to atmosphere will be higher. 4. Thus, higher is the temperature of the liquid, greater is the rate of evaporation. |
|
| 121792. |
Explain evaporation in terms of kinetic energy of liquid molecules. |
|
Answer» 1. Molecules in a liquid are moving about randomly. 2. The average kinetic energy of the molecules decides the temperature of the liquid. 3. However, all molecules do not move with the same speed. 4. Some with higher kinetic energy may escape from the surface region by overcoming the interatomic forces. 5. This process can take place at any temperature and is termed as evaporation. |

Answer» The degree of hotness of a body is called temperature. All bodies in thermal contact with each other ultimately attain the same temperature. the flow of heat energy from one body to another due to temperature difference between the two is called heat. Two bodies in thermal equilibrium with each other may not have the same amount of heat, but they must have the same temperature. |
