Question Detail
A cistern 6 m long and 4 m wide contains water up to a breadth of 1 m 25 cm. Find the total area of the wet surface.
- 42 m sqaure
- 49 m sqaure
- 52 m sqaure
- 64 m sqaure
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Area of the wet surface =
2[lb+bh+hl] - lb = 2 [bh+hl] + lb
= 2[(4*1.25+6*1.25)]+6*4 = 49 m square
1. A hollow iron pipe is 21 cm long and its external diameter is 8 cm. If the thickness of the pipe is 1 cm and iron weights 8g/cm cube, then find the weight of the pipe.
- 3.696 kg
- 3.686 kg
- 2.696 kg
- 2.686 kg
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
In this type of question, we need to subtract external radius and internal radius to get the answer using the volume formula as the pipe is hollow. Oh! line become a bit complicated, sorry for that, lets solve it.
External radius = 4 cm
Internal radius = 3 cm [because thickness of pipe is 1 cm]
\begin{aligned}
\text{Volume of iron =}\pi r^2h\\
= \frac{22}{7}*[4^2 - 3^2]*21 cm^3\\
= \frac{22}{7}*1*21 cm^3\\
= 462 cm^3 \\
\end{aligned}
Weight of iron = 462*8 = 3696 gm
= 3.696 kg
2. The radii of two cones are in ratio 2:1, their volumes are equal. Find the ratio of their heights.
- 1:4
- 1:3
- 1:2
- 1:5
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Let their radii be 2x, x and their heights be h and H resp.
Then,
\begin{aligned}
\text{Volume of cone =}\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h \\
\frac{\frac{1}{3}*\pi *{(2x)}^2*h}{\frac{1}{3}*\pi *{x}^2*H} \\
=> \frac{h}{H} = \frac{1}{4} \\
=> h:H = 1:4
\end{aligned}
3. The surface area of a sphere is same as the curved surface area of a right circular cylinder whose height and diameter are 12 cm each. The radius of the sphere is:
- 4 cm
- 6 cm
- 8 cm
- 10 cm
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
\begin{aligned}
\text{Curved surface area of sphere =}\\
\frac{4}\pi r^2 \\
\text{Surface area of cylinder =} \\
2\pi rh \\
=> \frac{4}\pi r^2 = 2\pi rh \\
=> r^2 = \frac{6*12}{2} \\
=> r^2 = 36 \\
=> r = 6
\end{aligned}
Note: Diameter of cylinder is 12 so radius is taken as 6.
4. If the volume of two cubes are in the ratio 27:1, the ratio of their edges is:
- 3:1
- 3:2
- 3:5
- 3:7
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Let the edges be a and b of two cubes, then
\begin{aligned}
\frac{a^3}{b^3} = \frac{27}{1} \\
=> \left( \frac{a}{b} \right)^3 = \left( \frac{3}{1} \right)^3 \\
\frac{a}{b}=\frac{3}{1} \\
=> a:b = 3:1
\end{aligned}
5. The maximum length of a pencil that can he kept is a rectangular box of dimensions 8 cm x 6 cm x 2 cm, is
- \begin{aligned} 2\sqrt{17} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 2\sqrt{16} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 2\sqrt{26} \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 2\sqrt{24} \end{aligned}
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
In this question we need to calculate the diagonal of cuboid,
which is =
\begin{aligned}
\sqrt{l^2+b^2+h^2} \\
= \sqrt{8^2+6^2+2^2} \\
= \sqrt{104} \\
= 2\sqrt{26}
\end{aligned}

why we subtract lb from it
-
Admin 11 years ago
Dear Sachin,
As, we got,
2[lb+bh+hl] - lb
Open the bracket by multiplying by 2, we will get2lb + 2bh + 2hl - lb
= 2bh + 2 hl + lb
= 2 [bh + hl] + lbIn this way we got it.

Sachin 11 years ago
Can anyone please explain this formula step by step
2[lb+bh+hl] - lbHow did you got - lb
2 [bh+hl] + lb
How did you got + lb. Once the bracket are open, the sign should - not +
Will really appreciate for your reply
