Question Detail

A cylindrical tank of diameter 35 cm is full of water. If 11 litres of water is drawn off, the water level in the tank will drop by:

\begin{aligned} 11\frac{3}{7} cm \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 11\frac{2}{7} cm \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 11\frac{1}{7} cm\end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 11 cm\end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let the drop in the water level be h cm, then,

\begin{aligned}
\text{Volume of cylinder= }\pi r^2h \\
=> \frac{22}{7}*\frac{35}{2}*\frac{35}{2}*h = 11000 \\
=> h = \frac{11000*7*4}{22*35*35}cm\\
= \frac{80}{7}cm\\
= 11\frac{3}{7} cm
\end{aligned}

1. 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

2. How many cubes of 10 cm edge can be put in a cubical box of 1 m edge.

10000 cubes
1000 cubes
100 cubes
50 cubes

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\text{Number of cubes =}\frac{100*100*100}{10*10*10} \\
= 1000
\end{aligned}

Note: 1 m = 100 cm

3. A cylindrical tank of diameter 35 cm is full of water. If 11 litres of water is drawn off, the water level in the tank will drop by:

\begin{aligned} 11\frac{3}{7} cm \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 11\frac{2}{7} cm \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 11\frac{1}{7} cm\end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 11 cm\end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

4. 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

5. 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
