Describe how the two figures at the right are alike and how they are different. Which box has larger lateral surface area? |
Answer» Similarity between both the figures is that both have the same heights. The difference between the two figures is that one is a cylinder and the other is a cube. Lateral surface area of the cube = 4l2 = 4 (7 cm)2 = 196 cm2 Lateral surface area of the cylinder = 2πrh = 2 x (22/7) x (7/2) x 7 cm2 = 154 cm2 Hence, the cube has larger lateral surface area. |

A piece of ductile metal is in the form of a cylinder of diameter 1 cm and length 5 cm. It is drawn out into a wire of diameter 1 mm. What will be the length of the wire so formed? |
Answer» Given, Diameter of metallic cylinder = 1 cm Radius of cylinder = \(\frac{1}{2}\) cm Length of cylinder = 5 cm Diameter of wire drawn from it = 1 mm = 0.1 cm Let length of wire = h cm so, Length of wire drawn from metal = \(\frac{volume\,of\,metal}{volume\,of\,wire}\) = \(\frac{π\times \frac{1}{4}\times 5}{π\times 0.1^2}\) = 500 cm = 5 m Volume of the cylinder is V = π r2 h = π 5/4 cm3 The wire is drawn into cylinder of radius 0.05cm and length L (1mm = 0.1cm = 2*radius) Therefore L π (0.05cm)2 = π 5/4 cm3 ⇒ L = 500cm |

A rectangular sheet of paper 30 cm × 18 cm can be transformed into the curved surface of a right circular cylinder in two ways i.e., either by rolling the paper along its length or by rolling it along its breadth. Find the ratio of the volumes of the two cylinders thus formed. |
Answer» Given, Dimensions of rectangular sheet = 30 cm× 18 cm Case (i) when paper is rolled along its length: = 2πr = 30 = r = \(\frac{30}{2π}\) cm = height = 18 cm Volume of cylinder thus formed = πr2h = π x (\(\frac{30}{2π}\))2 x 18 cm3 Case (ii) When paper is rolled along its breadth: = 2πr = 18 = r = \(\frac{18}{2π}\) cm = Height = 30 cm Volume of cylinder thus formed = πr2h = π(\(\frac{18}{2π}\))2 x 30 Hence, = \(\frac{volume\,of\,cylinder\,1}{volume\,of\,cylinder\,2}\) = \(\cfrac{[π(\frac{30}{2π})^2\times 18]}{[π(\frac{18}{2π})^2\times 30]}\) = \(\frac{30}{18}\) = \(\frac{5}{3}\) As we roll the sheet, one of the dimensions is the height of the cylinder, the other is circumference of the base circle. Therefore: C1 = 2 π r1 = 18cm ⇒ r1 = 9cm/π h1 = 30cm V1 = π (r1)2 h1 = 81cm*30cm/π C2 = 2 π r2 = 30cm ⇒ r = 15cm/π h2 = 18cm V2 = π (r2)2 h2 = 225cm*18cm/π V1/V2 = (81cm*30cm)/(225cm*18cm) = 0.6 |

Fill in the blanks to make the statement true.The surface area of a cuboid formed by joining two cubes of side a face to face is __________. |
Answer» 10a2 Explanation: Let “a” be the side of two cubes. When the two cubes are joined face to face, the figure obtained should be a cuboid having the same breadth and height. As the combined cube has a length twice of the length of a cube. It means that l = 2a, b = a and h = a Hence, the total surface area of cuboid = 2(lb + bh + hl) = 2(2a × a + a × a + a × 2a) Simplify the above expression, we get = 2[2a2 + a2 + 2a2] = 10a2 |

Answer» (a) Length of edges = Number of edges of base ` xx 3 xx "length of each edge"=4xx3xx5=60 m.` To find the cost of painting the box, we need to find the total surface area. `TSA=6a^(2)=6xx5^(2)=6xx25=150 m^2)` ` :. " Cost of painting "=150xx 5=Rs. 750.` (c ) Volume `=a^(3)=5^(3)=125 m^(3)`. |

Water is pouring into a cubiodal reservoir at the rate of 60 litres per minute. If the volume of reservoir is 108 m3, find the number of hours it will take to fill the reservoir. |
Answer» Volume of cuboidal reservoir = 108 m3 = (108 × 1000) L = 108000 L It is given that water is being poured at the rate of 60 L per minute. That is, (60 × 60) L = 3600 L per hour Required number of hours = 108000/3600 = 30 hours Thus, it will take 30 hours to fill the reservoir. |

WATER IS POURING INTO A CUBOIDAL RESERVOIR AT THE RATE OF 60 LITRES PER MINUTE.IF THE VOLUME OF RESERVOIR IS 108m3. FIND THE NUMBER OF HOURS IT WILL TAKE TO FILL THE RESERVOIR. |
Answer» Rate of flow of water = 60 litres/minute Volume of the tank = 108 m3 1 m3 = 1000 litres 108 m3= 108000 litres Time taken to fill the complete tank = 108000/60 = 1800 minutes = 1800/60 hours = 30 hours The tank will be filled completely in 30 hours. |

Find the area of the sector of a circle of angle `120^(@)`, if the radius of the circle is 21 cm. |
Answer» The area of the sector =`(theta)/(360)(pir^(2))` Here, `theta=120^(@) and r=21 cm` `=(120^(@))/(360^(@))xx(22)/(7)xx21xx21=462cm^(2)` |
