Question Detail

The perimeter of one face of a cube is 20 cm. Its volume will be:

\begin{aligned} 125 cm^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 400 cm^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 250 cm^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 625 cm^3 \end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Edge of cude = 20/4 = 5 cm

Volume = a*a*a = 5*5*5 = 125 cm cube

1. 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.

2. If the volume of two cubes are in the ratio 27:1, the ratio of their edges is:

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}

3. The perimeter of one face of a cube is 20 cm. Its volume will be:

\begin{aligned} 125 cm^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 400 cm^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 250 cm^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 625 cm^3 \end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Edge of cude = 20/4 = 5 cm

Volume = a*a*a = 5*5*5 = 125 cm cube

4. 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.

5. A circular well with a diameter of 2 meters, is dug to a depth of 14 meters. What is the volume of the earth dug out.

\begin{aligned} 40 m^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 42 m^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 44 m^3 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 46 m^3 \end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
Volume = \pi r^2h \\
Volume = \left(\frac{22}{7}*1*1*14\right)m^3 \\
= 44 m^3
\end{aligned}
