Question Detail
A cone of height 9 cm with diameter of its base 18 cm is carved out from a wooden solid sphere of radius 9 cm. The percentage of the wood wasted is :
- 45%
- 56%
- 67%
- 75%
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
We will first subtract the cone volume from wood volume to get the wood wasted.
Then we can calculate its percentage.
\begin{aligned}
\text{Sphere Volume =}\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 \\
\text{Cone Volume =}\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h\\
\text{Volume of wood wasted =}\\
\left(\frac{4}{3}\pi *9*9*9\right)-\left(\frac{1}{3}\pi *9*9*9\right) \\
= \pi *9*9*9 cm^3 \\
\text{Required Percentage =} \\
\frac{\pi *9*9*9}{\frac{4}{3}\pi *9*9*9}*100 \% \\
= \frac{3}{4}*100 \% \\
= 75\%
\end{aligned}
1. A metallic sheet is of rectangular shape with dimensions 48 m x 36 m. From each of its corners, a square is cut off so as to make an open box. If the length of the square is 8 m, the volume of the box (in m cube) is:
- 4120 m cube
- 4140 m cube
- 5140 m cube
- 5120 m cube
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
l = (48 - 16)m = 32 m, [because 8+8 = 16]
b = (36 -16)m = 20 m,
h = 8 m.
Volume of the box = (32 x 20 x 8) m cube
= 5120 m cube.
2. 66 cubic centimetres of silver is drawn into a wire 1 mm in diameter. The length if the wire in meters will be:
- 76 m
- 80 m
- 84 m
- 88 m
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Let the length of the wire be h
\begin{aligned}
Radius = \frac{1}{2}mm = \frac{1}{20}cm\\
\pi r^2h = 66 \\
\frac{22}{7}*\frac{1}{20}*\frac{1}{20}*h = 66 \\
=> h = \frac{66*20*20*7}{22} \\
= 8400 cm \\
= 84 m
\end{aligned}
3. The volume of the largest right circular cone that can be cut out of a cube of edge 7 cm is:
- \begin{aligned} 79.8 cm^3 \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 79.4 cm^3 \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 89.8 cm^3 \end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 89.4 cm^3 \end{aligned}
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Volume of the largest cone = Volume of the cone with diameter of base 7 and height 7 cm
\begin{aligned}
\text{Volume of cone =}\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h \\
= \frac{1}{3}*\frac{22}{7}*3.5*3.5*7 \\
= \frac{269.5}{3}cm^3 \\
= 89.8 cm^3
\end{aligned}
Note: radius is taken as 3.5, as diameter is 7 cm
4. 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.
5. 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}
