13.1 Class 10 Question 1.
2 cubes each of volume 64 cm3 are joined end to end. Find the surface area of the resulting cuboid.

Solution:
Volume of one cube = 64 cm3
Let edge of one cube = a
Volume of the cube = (edge)3
a3= 64 ⇒ a = 4 cm
Similarly, edge of the another cube = 4 cm.
Now, both cubes are joined together and a cuboid is formed as shown in the figure.
Now, length of the cuboid (l) = 8 cm
breadth of the cuboid (b) = 4 cm
height of the cuboid (h) = 4 cm
Surface area of the cuboid so formed = 2 (lb + bh + hl)
= 2(8 x 4 + 4 x 4 + 4 x 8)
= 2(32 + 16 + 32) = 160 cm²

Question 2.
A vessel is in the form of a hollow hemisphere mounted by a hollow cylinder. The diameter of the hemisphere is 14 cm and the total height of the vessel is 13 cm. Find the inner surface area of the vessel.

Solution:
Given: diameter of the hemisphere = 14 cm
Radius =14/2= 7 cm
Curved surface area of the hemisphere = 2πr² = 2 x 22/7 x 7 x 7 cm²
= 14 x 22 cm² = 308 cm²
Here, total height of the vessel = 13 cm
Height of the cylinder = Total height – Height of the hemisphere = 13 cm – 7 cm = 6 cm
and radius of the cylinder = radius of the hemisphere = 7 cm
Inner surface area of the cylinder = 2πrh = 2 x 22/7 x 7 x 6
= 2 x 22 x 6 = 264 cm²
Inner surface area of the vessel = Inner surface area of the cylinder + curved surface area of the hemisphere
= 264 cm² + 308 cm² = 572 cm²

Question 1.
A solid is in the shape of a cone standing on a hemisphere with both their radii being equal to 1 cm and the height of the cone is equal to its radius. Find the volume of the solid in terms of n.
 

Solution:
Radius of the hemisphere = 1 cm
Volume of the hemisphere = 2/3 πr³ = 2/3 π(1)³ = 23πcm³
Radius of base of the cone = 1 cm
Height of the cone = 1 cm

Volume of the cone = 1/3πr²h = 1/3πr² x 1 = 1/3π cm³
Total volume of the solid = Volume of the hemisphere + Volume of the cone
= 2/3π cm³ + 1/3π cm³ = π cm³

Question 2.
Rachel, an engineering student, was asked to make a model shaped like a cylinder with two cones attached at its two ends by using a thin aluminium sheet. The diameter of the model is 3 cm and its length is 12 cm. If each cone has a height of 2 cm, find the volume of air contained in the model that Rachel made. (Assume the outer and inner dimensions of the model to be nearly the same.)
 

Solution:
Volume of air contained in the model = Total volume of the solid
Diameter of base of each cone = 3 cm
∴ Radius of base of each cone = 3/2
Height of each cone = 2 cm

Question 3.
A gulab jamun, contains sugar syrup up to about 30% of its volume. Find approximately how much syrup would be found in 45 gulab jamuns, each shaped like a cylinder with two hemispherical ends with length 5 cm and diameter 2.8 cm (see figure).

Solutions:
Volume of one piece of gulab jamun
= Volume of the cylindrical portion + Volume of the two hemispherical ends 1 2 8
Radius of each hemispherical portion = 2.8/2 = 1.4 cm

Volume of both hemispherical ends = 2 x 5.74 cm³ = 11.48 cm³
Height of the cylindrical portion = (total height) - (radius of both hemispherical ends)
= 5 cm -2(1.4) cm = 5 cm - 2.8 cm = 2.2 cm
Radius of the cylindrical portion = 1.4 cm
Volume of the cylindrical portion of gulab jamun = πr²h
= 22/7 x (1.4)² x 2.2cm³
=22x1.4x1.4x2.2/7 cm³ = 13.55 cm³
Total volume of one gulab jamun = Volume of the two hemispherical ends + Volume of the cylindrical portion
= 11.48 cm³ + 13.55 cm³ = 25.03 cm³
Volume of sugar syrup = 30% of volume of gulab jamun
=30/100 x 25.03 cm³ = 7.50 cm³
∴ Volume of sugar syrup in 45 gulab jamuns
= 45 (volume of sugar syrup in one gulab jamun)
= 45 x 7.50 cm³ = 337.5 cm³ = 338 cm³ approx.

Question 4.

Find the volume of wood in the entire stand (see figure).

Solution:
Radius of one conical depression = 0.5 cm
Depth of one conical depression = 1.4 cm

Volume of cuboidal box = l x b x h
= 15 x 10 x 3.5 cm³
= 525 cm³
Remaining volume of box = Volume of cubical box - Volume of four conical depressions
= 525 cm³ - 1.464 cm³ = 523.5 cm³

Solution:

Given: radius of 1st cylinder = 12 cm
and height of 1st cylinder = 220 cm
∴ Volume of 1st cylinder = πr²h
= π(12)² (220) cm³
= 144 x 220π cm³
= 144 x 220 x 3.14 cm³
= 99475.2 cm³ … (i)
Given: radius of 2nd cylinder = 8 cm
and height of 2nd cylinder = 60 cm
∴ Volume of 2nd cylinder = πr²h
= π(8)² (60) cm³ = 64 x 60π cm³
= 64 x 60 x 3.14 cm³
= 12057.6 cm³ … (ii)
Total volume of solid = Volume of 1st cylinder + Volume of 2nd cylinder
= 99475.2 cm³ + 12057.6 cm³ = 111532.8 cm³
Given: mass of 1 cm³ of iron = 8 g
∴ Mass of 111532.8 cm³ of iron = 111532.8 x 8 g
= 892262.4 g = 892.262 kg

Question 7.
A solid consisting of a right circular cone of height 120 cm and radius 60 cm standing on a hemisphere of radius 60 cm is placed upright in a right circular cylinder full of water such that it touches the bottom. Find the volume of water left in the cylinder, if the radius of the cylinder is 60 cm and its height is 180 cm.
 

Solution:
Radius of hemisphere = 60 cm

When solid (hemisphere + conical) is kept in cylindrical solid, then volume of water left in cylinder
= Volume of cylinder - (Volume of hemisphere + Volume of cone)
= [π(60)² x 180 – π(60)² x 80] cm³
= π(60)² [180 – 80]cm³ =π x 3600 x 100 cm³ = 1130400 cm³ = 1.130 m³

Question 8.

Solution:
Volume of water the glass vessel can hold = 345 cm³ (Measured by the child)
Radius of the cylindrical part = 2/2 = 1 cm


Height of the cylindrical part = 8 cm
∴ Volume of the cylindrical part = πr²h
= 3.14 x (1)² x 8 cm³
Diameter of the spherical part Radius = 8.5 cm
∴ Radius = 8.5/2 cm =85/20

Total volume of the glass vessel = Volume of the cylindrical part + Volume of the spherical part
= 25.12 cm³ + 321.39 cm³ = 346.51 cm³
Volume measured by child is 345 cm³, which is not correct. Correct volume is 346.51 cm³.

∴ Volume =4/3 π(4.2)³ …. (i)
∵ Sphere is melted and recast into a cylinder of radius 6 cm and height h.
∴ Volume of the cylinder =πr²h = π(6)² x h … (ii)
According to question,
Volume of the cylinder = Volume of the sphere

Question 2.
Metallic spheres of radii 6 cm, 8 cm and 10 cm, respectively, are melted to form a single solid sphere. Find the radius of the resulting sphere.
 

Solution:
Radius of 1st metallic sphere = 6 cm
∴ Volume of 1st metallic sphere =4/3π(6)³ cm³
Radius of 2nd metallic sphere = 8 cm
∴ Volume of 2nd metallic sphere = 4/3π(8)³ cm³
Radius of 3rd metallic sphere = 10 cm
∴ Volume of 3rd metallic sphere =4/3π(10)³ cm³
Volume of all three metallic spheres =4/3π(6³+8³+10³) cm³
∵ 3 spheres are melted and recast into a new metallic sphere of radius r.
∴ Volume of new metallic sphere = 43πr³

Question 4.
A well of diameter 3 m is dug 14 m deep. The earth taken out of it has been spread evenly all around it in the shape of a circular ring of width 4 m to form an embankment. Find the height of the embankment.
 

Solution:
Given: diameter of the well = 3 m
⇒ Radius =3/2 m
Depth of the well = 14 m
Volume of the earth taken out from the well = πr²h
= π(3/2)² x 14 =πx9x14/4 =63/2πm³
∵ Earth taken out from the well evenly spread to form an embankment having height h and width of embankment around the well is 4 m.
∴ External radius (R) = radius of well + width of the embankment
=32m + 4m =11/2 m
Internal radius =3/2 m = radius of well

Solution:

Let total number of ice cream cones are n.
∴ All ice cream cones are filled from ice cream in the cylinder.
Total volume of n number of ice cream cones = Volume of ice cream in the cylinder
n x π x 54 = π(36)15
⇒ n x 54 = 36 x 15
⇒ n = 36 x 15/54 = 10
