Exercise 10.1

Question 1.

A joker’s cap is in the form of right circular cone whose base radius is 7 cm and height is 24 cm. Find the area of the sheet required to make 10 such caps.

Answer:

Given that, the radius of cone(r) is 7 cm and height(h) is

24 cm.

And, Surface area of cone is - πrl

Also, slant height(l) = √ r² + h²

⇒ l = √ 7² + 24²

⇒ l = √ 49 + 576

⇒ l = √ 625

⇒ l = 25

⇒ Surface area of joker’s cap

= 550cm²

⇒ ∴ the area of the sheet required to make 10 such caps

= 550 × 10 cm²

= 5500 cm²

Question 2.

Answer:

Given that, the radius(r) of cone is 3 cm and height (h) is

4 cm.

And, the available paper sheet is- 1000 cm²

And, Surface area of cone is - πrl

Also, slant height(l) = √ r² + h²

⇒ l = √ 3² + 4²

⇒ l = √ 9 + 16

⇒ l = √ 25

⇒ l = 5

⇒ Surface area of joker’s cap

And, the available paper sheet is- 1000 cm²

⇒ No. of caps that can be manufactured from that paper sheet

= 21.21 cm²

= 21 cm²

Answer:

Given that, height(h) of cylinder is 11 cm and diameter(d) is 7 cm.

⇒ radius(r) of cylinder

And, the volume of cylinder = πr²h

⇒ volume of one rod

⇒ volume of one rod

= 423.5

⇒ the total volume of 50 such rods = 423.5 × 50

= 21,175cm³

Question 8.

(use π = 3.14)

Answer:

Given that, the diameter(d) of cone is 12 cm and heigh(h)t is 8 cm.

⇒ radius(r)

And, Surface area of cone is - πrl

Also, volume of cone

Also, slant height(l) = √ r² + h²

⇒ l = √ 6² + 8²

⇒ l = √ 36 + 64

⇒ l = √ 100

⇒ l = 10

⇒ volume of heap

= 301.44 cm³

⇒ Surface area of cone = 3.14 × 6 × 10

= 188.4 cm²

⇒ ∴ canvas cloth required to cover the heap = 188.4 cm²

Question 9.

Answer:

Given that, curved surface area of a cone is 4070 cm² and diameter(d) is 70 cm.

⇒ radius(r)

Let the slant height be l.

And, curved surface area of a cone = πrl

Exercise 10.2

Question 1.

A toy is in the form of a cone mounted on a hemisphere. The diameter of the base and the height of the cone are 6 cm and 4 cm respectively. Determine the surface area of the toy.

(use π = 3.14)

Answer:

Given that, diameter(d) is 6 cm and height(h) is 4 cm.

⇒ radius(r)

Also, slant height(l) = √ r² + h²

⇒ l = √ 3² + 4²

⇒ l = √ 9 + 16

⇒ l = √ 25

⇒ l = 5

And, surface area of the toy = surface area of the cone + surface area of hemisphere

⇒ Surface area of toy = πrl + 2πr²

= πr(l + 2r)

= 103.71 cm²

Question 2.

A solid is in the form of a right circular cylinder with a hemisphere one end and a cone at the other end. The radius of the common base is 8 cm. and the heights of the cylindrical and conical portion are 10 cm and 6 cm respectively. Find the total surface area of the solid.

(use π = 3.14)

Answer:

The figure is shown below:

Given that, radius(r) is 8 cm, height of cylinder(H) is 10 cm and height of cone(h) is 6cm.

Also, l = √ r² + h²

⇒ l = √ 8² + 6²

⇒ l = √ 64 + 36

⇒ l = √ 100

⇒ l = 10

Now, total surface area of solid = surface area of cone + surface area of cylinder + surface area of sphere

⇒ total surface area of solid = πrl + 2πrH + 2πr² = πr(l + 2H + 2r)

= 3.14 × 8(10 + 2 × 10 + 2 × 8)

= 3.14 × 8 × 46

= 1155.55 cm²

Question 3.

A medicine capsule is in the shape of a cylinder with two hemispheres stuck to each of its ends. The length of the capsule is 14 mm. and the width is 5 mm. Find its surface area.

Answer:

Given that, the length of the capsule is 14 mm and the width is 5 mm.

⇒ Radius(r)

⇒ height of cylinder(h) = total height-2 × radius of hemisphere

= 14-5 = 9mm

⇒ surface area of capsule = surface area of cylinder + 2 × surface

Area of one hemisphere

= 2πrh + 2 × 2πr²

= 2πr(h + 2r)

= 220 mm²

Question 4.

Two cubes each of volume 64cm² are joined end to end together. Find the surface area of the resulting cuboid.

Answer:

Given that, volume of cube is 64 cm³.

Also, volume of cube = a³ (where, a is side)

⇒ a³ = 64

⇒a = 4

⇒ Length(l) of cuboid = 2 × a = 8 cm,

Breadth(b) = height(h) = a = 4 cm

⇒ the total surface area of the resulting cuboid = 2(lb + bh + hl)

⇒ 2 × (8 × 4 + 4 × 4 + 4 × 8)

= 2 × 80

= 160 cm²

Answer:

The figure is shown below:

Given that, diameter(d) of cylinder is 1.4 m and length(h) is 8 m.

⇒ the radius of sphere(r) = radius of cylinder

⇒ surface area of tank = surface area of cylinder + 2(surface

Area of hemisphere)

= 2πrh + 2(2πr²⁾

= 2πr(h + 2r)

= 41.36 m²

⇒ ∴ the cost of painting it on the outside at rate of D20 per m²

= 41.36 × 20

= D827.20

Question 6.

A sphere, a cylinder and a cone have the same radius and same height. Find the ratio of their volumes.

[Hint: Diameter of the sphere is equal to the heights of the cylinder and the cone.]

Answer:

Given that, a sphere, a cylinder and a cone have the same radius(say r) and same height(say h).

⇒ ∵ they have same height,

⇒ diameter of sphere = height of cylinder

⇒ radius of sphere

⇒ h = 2r

Ratio of their volumes = vol. of sphere : vol. of cylinder : vol. of cone

Multiplying the whole by 3, we get-

⇒ Ratio of their volumes = 4:6:2

Answer:

Give that, A hemisphere is cut out from one face of a cubical wooden block such that the diameter of the hemisphere is equal to the length of the cube.

Now, let the side of cube be ‘l’

⇒ radius of hemisphere(r) 

⇒ surface area of remaining solid = surface area of cube- surface area of hemisphere

= 6l² - 2πr²

= sq units 
Question 8.

A wooden article was made by scooping out a hemisphere from each end of a solid cylinder, as shown in the figure. If the height of the cylinder is 10 cm. and its radius of the base is of 3.5 cm, find the total surface area of the article.

Answer:

Given that, radius(r) of base is 3.5 cm and height(h) of cylinder is 10 cm.

⇒ the total surface area of the article = surface area of cylinder +

2(Surface area of hemisphere)

= 2πrh + 2(2πr²)

= 2πr(h + 2r)

= 374 cm²

An iron pillar consists of a cylindrical portion of 2.8 m. height and 20 cm. in diameter and a cone of 42 cm. height surmounting it. Find the weight of the pillar if 1cm³ of iron weighs 7.5 g.

Answer:

Given that, height of cylinder(H) = 2.8m = 280 cm, diameter(d) is 20 cm and height of cone(h) is 42 cm.

⇒ radius(r)

⇒ vol. of pole = vol. of cylinder + vol. of cone

= 92400 cm³

If 1 cm³ of iron weighs 7.5 g.

⇒ the weight of the pillar = 92400 × 7.5

= 693,000 g

= 693 kg (∵ 1kg = 1000g)

The radius of the base of the cone is 7 cm. and its volume is  of the hemisphere. Calculate the height of the cone and the surface area of the toy correct to 2 places of decimal

Answer:

Given that, The radius of the base(r) of the cone is 7 cm and its volume is  of the hemisphere.

∵ circular base of cone is joined with the plane surface of the hemisphere,

⇒ radius of hemisphere = radius of base of cone = 7 cm

Also,vol. of cone = vol. of hemisphere

⇒ h = 3r

⇒h = 3 × 7

⇒h = 21 cm

Also, slant height(l) = √ r² + h²

⇒ l = √ 7² + 21²

⇒ l = √ 490

⇒ l = 22.13

⇒ Slant Height of cone (l) = 22.13 cm

Now, surface area of toy = surface area of cone + surface area of hemisphere

⇒ surface area of toy = πrl + 2πr²

= πr(l + 2r)

= 794.86 cm²

Answer:

Given that, radius of cylinder(r) is 5 cm and height(h) is 9.8 cm. Also, radius of hemisphere(R) is 3.5 cm and height(H) of cone outside the hemisphere is 5 cm.

⇒ vol. of solid = vol. of hemisphere + vol. of cone

= 154 cm³

⇒ vol. of tub = πr²h

= 770 cm³

⇒ the volume of water left in the tub = vol.of tub-vol. of solid

= 770-154

= 616 cm³
