Question Detail

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

1. 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

2. 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}

3. 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.

4. Two right circular cylinders of equal volumes have their heights in the ratio 1:2. Find the ratio of their radii.

\begin{aligned} \sqrt{3}:1 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \sqrt{7}:1 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \sqrt{2}:1 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 2:1 \end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let their heights be h and 2h and radii be r and R respectively then.

\begin{aligned}
\pi r^2h = \pi R^2(2h) \\
=> \frac{r^2}{R^2} = \frac{2h}{h} \\
= \frac{2}{1} \\
=> \frac{r}{R} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{1} \\
=> r:R = \sqrt{2}:1 \\
\end{aligned}

5. 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
