Question 1: What is the least number of solid metallic spheres, each of $6 \ cm$ diameter, that should be melted and recast to form a solid metal cone whose height is $45 \ cm$ and diameter $12 \ cm$?

Radius of Sphere $(r_1) = 3$ cm

Metal cone: Height $( h) = 45$ cm, Radius $( r_2) = 6$ cm

Let the number of cones melted $= n$

Therefore $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi {r_1}^3 \times n =$ $\frac{1}{3}$ $\pi {r_2}^2 h$

$\Rightarrow n =$ $\frac{3}{4}$ $\times$ $\frac{1}{3}$ $\times$ $\frac{{r_2}^2}{{r_1}^3}$ $\times h$

$\Rightarrow n =$ $\frac{3}{4}$ $\times$ $\frac{1}{3}$ $\times$ $\frac{{6}^2}{{3}^3}$ $\times 45$

$\Rightarrow n = 15$

Question 2: A largest sphere is to be carved out of a right circular cylinder of radius $7 \ cm$ and height $14 \ cm$. Find the volume of the sphere. (Answer correct to the nearest integer).

Cylinder: Radius $( r) = 7$ cm, Height $(h) = 14$ cm

Radius of sphere will be $7$ cm

Volume of the largest sphere $=$ $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi r^3 =$ $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi (7)^3 = 1437.33 \ cm^3$

$\\$

Question 3: A right circular cylinder having diameter $12 \ cm$ and height $15 \ cm$ is full of ice-cream. The ice-cream is to be filled in identical cones of height $12 \ cm$ and diameter $6 \ cm$ having a hemi-spherical shape on the top. Find the number of cones required.

Cylinder: Radius $(r) = 6$ cm, Height $(h) = 15$ cm

Volume of ice-cream cone $=$ $\frac{1}{3}$ $\pi r^2 h +$ $\frac{1}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi r^3$

$=$ $\frac{1}{3}$ $\pi \times 3^2 \times 12 +$ $\frac{1}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi \times 3^3$ $= 54\pi$

Volume of cylinder $= \pi r^2 h = \pi (6)^2 \times 15 = 540 \pi$

Therefore the number of ice-cream cones $=$ $\frac{540 \pi}{54 \pi}$ $= 10$

$\\$

Question 4: A solid is in the form of a cone standing on a hemi-sphere with both their radii being equal to $8 \ cm$ and the height of cone is equal to its radius. Find, in terms of $\pi$, the volume of the solid.

Radius $(r) = 8$ cm

Volume $=$ $\frac{1}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi r^3 +$ $\frac{1}{3}$ $\pi r^2 h$

$=$ $\frac{1}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi (8)^3 +$ $\frac{1}{3}$ $\pi (8)^2 \times 8 = 512 \pi \ cm^3$

$\\$

Question 5: The diameter of a sphere is $6 \ cm$. It is melted and drawn into a wire of diameter $0.2 \ cm$. Find the length of the wire.

Sphere: Radius $(r_1)= 3$ cm

Wire (cylinder): Radius $( r_2) = 0.1$ cm, Length $= l$ cm

Volume of sphere $=$ Volume of wire

$\Rightarrow$ $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi (3)^3 = \pi (0.1)^2 \times l$

$\Rightarrow l =$ $\frac{4 \times 3^2}{0.1 \times 0.1}$ $= 3600 \ cm \ or \ 36 \ m$

$\\$

Question 6: Determine the ratio of the volume of a cube to that of a sphere which will exactly fit inside the cube.

Let radius of sphere be $r$. The the side of the cube would be $2r$

Volume of sphere $=$ $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi r^3$

Volume of cube $= ( 2r)^3 = 8r^3$

Hence Ratio $=$ $\frac{8r^3}{\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3}$ $=$ $\frac{6}{\pi}$ $=$ $\frac{21}{11}$

$\\$

Question 7: An iron pole consisting of a cylindrical portion $110 \ cm$ high and of base diameter $12 cm$ is surmounted by a cone $9 \ cm$ high. Find the mass of the pole, given that $1 \ cm^3$ of iron 355 has $8 \ gm$ of mass (approx.) (Take $\pi =$ $\frac{355}{113}$)

Cylinder (Iron Pole): Height $(h_1) = 110$ cm, Radius $(r) = 6$ cm

Cone: Height $(h_2) = 9$ cm

Volume of the structure $= \pi (6)^2 \times 110 +$ $\frac{1}{3}$ $\pi (6)^2 \times 9$ $= 3960\pi + 108 \pi = 4068 \pi$

Density $= 8 \ gm / cm^3$

Therefore Weight $= 4068 \times$ $\frac{355}{113}$ $\times 8 = 102240 \ gm \ or \ 102.24 kg$

$\\$

Question 8: When a metal cube is completely submerged in water contained in a cylindrical vessel with diameter $30 \ cm$, the level of water rises by $1\frac{41}{99} cm$. Find : (i) the length of the edge of the cube, (ii) the total surface area of the cube.

Let side of the cube $= a$

Cylinder: Radius $(r) = 15$ cm

Increase in height $= 1$ $\frac{41}{99}$ $=$ $\frac{140}{99}$ cm

i) Therefore  $\pi ( 15)^2 \times$ $\frac{140}{99}$ $= a^3$

$\Rightarrow a^3 =$ $\frac{22}{7}$ $\times 15^2 \times$ $\frac{140}{99}$ $= 2^3 \times 5^3$

Therefore $a = 2 \times 5 = 10$ cm

ii) Surface are of the cube $6a^2 = 6 \times 10^2 = 600 \ cm^2$

Question 9: In the following diagram a rectangular platform with a semi-circular end on one side is $22 \ meters$ long from one end to the other end. If the length of the half circumference is $11 \ meters$, find the cost of constructing the platform, $1.5 \ meters$ high at the rate of $Rs. 4 \ m^3$.

$\pi r = 11 \Rightarrow r =$ $\frac{7 \times 11}{22}$ $= 3.5$ m

Therefore length of the rectangle $= 22 - 3.5 = 18.5$ m

Volume of rectangle $= 18.5 \times ( 2 \times 3.5) \times 1.5 = 194.25 \ m^3$

Volume of semi circle $=$ $\frac{1}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{22}{7}$ $\times (3.5)^2 \times 1.5 = 28.875 m^3$

Total volume $= 194.25 + 28.875 = 223.125 m^3$

Total cost $= 223.125 \times 4 = 892.5$ Rs.

i) Volume $=$ Cross Section Area $\times$ Length

$= (7 \times 7 +$ $\frac{1}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{22}{7}$ $\times (3.5)^2) \times 80 = ( 49 + 19.25) \times 80 = 5460 \ m^3$

ii) Surface area $= ( \pi (3.5) + 2 \times 7) \times 80 = 25 \times 80 = 2000 \ m^2$

iii) Floor area $= 7 \times 80 = 560 \ m^2$

Water tank: Radius $(r) = 1.4$ m, Height $(h) = 4.2$ m

Pipe: Radius $(r) = 3.5$ cm

Flow of water $= 4$ m/s

Volume of water tank $= \pi \times (.14)^2 \times 4.2 = 29.568 \ m^3$

Time to fill the tank $=$ $\frac{29.568}{\pi (\frac{3.5}{100})^2 \times 4}$ $= 1920$ seconds or $32$ minutes

$\\$

Question 12: Water flows, at 9 km Per hour, through a cylindrical pipe of cross-sectional area $25 cm^2$. If this water is collected into a rectangular cistern of dimensions $7.5 \ m \times 5 \ m \times 4 \ m$: calculate the rise in level in the cistern in 1 hour 15 minutes.

Rate of flow $= 9$ km/hr $=$ $\frac{9000 \ m}{3600 \ s}$ $= 2.5$ m/s

Volume of Cistern $= 7.5 \times 5 \times 4 = 150 \ m^3$

Total volume of flow in $1$ hour $15$ minutes

$=$ $\frac{25}{10000}$ $m^2 \times 2.5$ $\frac{m}{s}$ $\times 4500 s = 28.1250 \ m^3$

Height of water $\Rightarrow 7.5 \times 5 \times h = 28.1250 \Rightarrow h = 0.75 m = 75 \ cm$

Calculate: (a) the total surface area, (b) the total volume of the solid and (c) the density of the material if its total weight is $1.7 \ kg$.

i) Total Surface Area

$= \frac{1}{2} \times 4\pi (5)^2 + 2 \pi (5) \times 12 + \pi (5) (13)$

$= 50\pi + 120 \pi + 65 \pi ($ Since $l = \sqrt{12^2 + 5^2} = 13 )$

$= 230 \pi = 738.57 \ m^2$

ii) Total volume $= \frac{1}{3} \pi (5)^2 \times 12 + \pi (5)^2 \times 12 + \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{4}{3} \pi (5)^2$

$= 100 \pi + 300 \pi + 83.33 \pi = 1519.047 \ cm^3$

iii) Density $=$ $\frac{1.7 \ kg}{1519.047 \ cm^3}$ $=$ $\frac{1.7 \times 1000 \ gm}{1519.047 \ cm^3}$ $= 1.121 \$ $\frac{gm}{cm^3}$

Find the volume of water left in the cylinder, having given that the radius of the cylinder is $3 \ cm$ and its height is $6 \ cm$, the radius of the hemisphere is 2 cm and the height of cone is $4 \ cm$. Give your answer to the nearest cubic centimeter.

Cylinder: Radius $(r) = 3$ cm, Height $(h) = 6$ cm

Volume of cylinder $= \pi (3)^2 \times 6 = 54 \pi$

Volume of solid $=$ $\frac{1}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi (2)^3 +$ $\frac{1}{3}$ $\times \pi (20)^2 \times 4 =$ $\frac{16}{3}$ $\pi +$ $\frac{16}{3}$ $\pi =$ $\frac{32}{3}$ $\pi$

Therefore volume of water left $= 54 \pi -$ $\frac{32}{3}$ $\pi =$ $\frac{130}{3}$ $\pi = 136.19 \ cm^3$

$\\$

Question 15: A metal container in the form of a cylinder is Surmounted by a hemisphere of the same radius. The internal height of the cylinder is $7 \ m$ and the internal radius is $3.5 \ m$ Calculate: (i) the total area of the internal surface excluding the base; (ii) the internal volume of the container in $\ m^3$

i) Total internal surface area

$= 2 \pi (3.5)\times 7 +$ $\frac{1}{2}$ $\times 4 \pi (3.5)^2 = 49 \pi + 24.5 \pi$ $= 73.5 \pi = 231 \ m^2$

ii) Internal volume

$= \pi (3.5)^2 \times 7 +$ $\frac{1}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi (3.5)^3$ $= 85.75 \pi +$ $\frac{85.75}{3}$ $\pi = 114.33 \pi = 359.33 \ m^3$

Question 16: An exhibition tent is in the form of a cylinder surmounted by a cone. The height of the ten above the ground is cylindrical part is $50.85 \ m$ and height of the m. If the diameter of the base is $168 \ m$, find the quantity of canvas required to make the tent. Allow $20\%$ extra for fold and for stitching. Give your answer to the nearest $\ m^2$

Since $l = \sqrt{35^2 + 84^2} = 91$

Total Surface Area $= 2 \pi (84) \times 50 + \pi (84) \times 91 = 8400 \pi + 7644 \pi = 16044 \pi = 50424 \ m^2$

Therefore canvas required $= 50424 \times 1.20 = 60508.8 \ m^2$

$\\$

Question 17: The total surface area of a hollow cylinder, which is open from both sides, is $3575 \ cm^2$; area of the base ring is $357.5 \ cm^2$ and height is $14 \ cm$. Find the thickness of the cylinder.

Total surface area $= 3575 \ cm^2$

Area of the base $= 357.5 \ cm^2$

Height $(h) = 14 \ cm$

$\pi r^2 - \pi x^2 = 357.5$

$\pi ( r-x)(r+x)= 357.5$

$( r-x)(r+x)= 113.75$   … … … … … i)

$2 \pi r ( 14) + 2 \pi x ( 14) + 2 \times 357.5 = 3575$

$28 \pi r + 28 \pi x = 2860$

$28r + 28x = 910$

$(r+x) = 32.5$   … … … … … ii)

Therefore from i) we get $(r-x) = 3.5$   … … … … … iii)

Solving ii) and iii) we get

$2r = 36 \Rightarrow r = 18$

$2x = 29 \Rightarrow x = 14.5$

Hence thickness $= 3.5 \ cm$

Question 18: A test tube consists of a hemisphere and a cylinder of the same radius. The volume of the water required to fill the whole tube is $\frac{5159}{6}$ $cm^3$, and $\frac{4235}{6}$ $cm^3$ of water is required to fill the tube to a level which is $4 \ cm$ below the top of the tube. Find the radius of the tube and the length of its cylindrical part.

$\frac{1}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi r^3 + \pi r^2 h =$ $\frac{5159}{6}$

$\frac{2}{3}$ $\pi r^3 + \pi r^2 h =$ $\frac{5159}{6}$

$4 \pi r^2 + 6 \pi r^2 h = 5159$

$4r^3 + 6 r^2 h = 1641.5$   … … … … … i)

$\frac{2}{3}$ $\pi r^3 + \pi r^2 (h-4) =$ $\frac{4235}{6}$

$4 \pi r^3 + 6 \pi r^2 ( h-4) = 4235$

$4r^3 + 6 r^2 ( h - 4) = 1347.5$   … … … … … ii)

From i) $h =$ $\frac{1641.5 - 4r^3}{6r^2}$

Substituting in ii)

$4r^3 + 6 r^2 ($ $\frac{1641.5 - 4r^3}{6r^2}$ $- 4) = 1347.5$

$4r^3 + ( 1641.5 - 4r^3 - 24r^2) = 1347.5$

$1641.5 - 24 r^2 = 1347.5$

$24r^2 = 294$

$r^2 = 12.25$

$r = 3.5$

Therefore $h =$ $\frac{1641.5 - 4(3.5)^3}{6(3.5)^2}$ $= \frac{1470}{73.5}$ $= 20 \ cm$

The diameter of the base of the cone. which exactly coincides with hemisphere, is $7 \ cm$ and its height is $8 \ cm$. The solid is placed in a cylindrical vessel of internal radius $7 \ cm$ and height $10 \ cm$. How much water, in $\ cm^3$, will be required to fill the vessel completely.

Volume of cylinder $= \pi (7)^2 (10) = 490 \pi$

Volume of solid $=$ $\frac{1}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{4}{3}$ $\pi (3.5)^3 +$ $\frac{1}{3}$ $\pi (3.5)^2 (8) =$ $\frac{343}{12}$ $\pi +$ $\frac{98}{3}$ $\pi =$ $\frac{735}{12}$ $\pi = 61.25 \pi$

Therefore Quantity of water required $= 490 \pi - 61.25 \pi = 1347.5 \ cm^3$

Question 20: A cone and a cylinder have their heights in the ratio $4 :5$ and their diameters are in the ratio $3 : 2$. Find the ratio between their volumes.

Let height of the cone $= 4x$

Therefore the height of the cylinder $= 5x$

Let diameter of the cone $= 3y$

Therefore diameter of the cylinder $= 2y$

Ratio of volumes $=$ $\frac{\frac{1}{3} \pi \Big( \frac{3y}{2} \Big)^2 \times 4x}{\frac{1}{3} \pi \Big( \frac{2y}{2} \Big)^2 \times 5x}$ $=$ $\frac{9y^2 \times 4x}{4y^2 \times 5x}$ $= 9:5$
