Question: 1)​ If a marble of radius 2.1 cm is put into a cylindrical cup full of water of radius 5 cm and
height 6 cm, then how much water flows out of the cylindrical cup?
(a) 38.8 cm3
(b) 55.4 cm3
(c) 19.4 cm3
(d) 471.4 cm3
Solution:

We know that when the marble is put inside the cylindrical cup full of water the volume of water displaced
is equal to the volume of the marble.
So, volume of water that flows out = volume of the marble
Volume of sphere ​ = (4/3)𝝅r3
Given, radius ​ = 2.1 cm
So, volume of marble = (4/3)(22/7)(2.1)3

Question: 2) The difference between the outer and inner radii of a hollow right circular cylinder of
length 14 cm is 1 cm. If the volume of the metal used in making the cylinder is 176 cm3, find the outer
and inner radii of the cylinder.
Solution:
Let r and R be the radii of the inner and outer surfaces of a cylinder.
Given, height of cylinder (h) = 14 cm
Volume of cylinder (V) = 176 cm3
and R - r = 1 cm
∵ V = 176 cm2
𝝅(R2 - r2) h = 176

Question: 4) 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 and the volume of the vessel.
Solution:
Let's create a figure of the vessel according to the given description.
From the figure it's clear that the inner surface area of the vessel includes the curved surface area CSA of the
hemisphere and the cylinder.
Inner surface area of the vessel = CSA of the hemisphere + CSA of the cylinder
We will find the area of the vessel by using formulae;
CSA of the hemisphere​ = 2𝝅r2, where r is the radius of the hemisphere.
CSA of the cylinder ​ = 2𝝅rh, Where r and h are the radius and height of the cylinder respectively.
Height of the cylinder ​ = Total height of the vessel - height of the hemisphere.
Diameter of the hemisphere, d = 14 cm
Radius of the hemisphere, r ​ = 14/2 cm = 7 cm
Height of the hemisphere ​ = radius of the hemisphere, r = 7cm
Radius of the cylinder, r ​ = 7 cm
Height of the cylinder ​ = Total height of the vessel - height of the hemisphere
h = 13 cm - 7 cm = 6 cm
Inner surface area of the vessel ​ = CSA of the hemisphere + CSA of the cylinder
= 2𝝅r2 + 2𝝅rh
= 2𝝅r (r +h)
= 2 × 22/7 × 7cm (7 cm + 6 cm)
=2 × 22 × 13 cm2
= 572 cm2
Thus, the inner surface area of the vessel is 572 cm2.

Question: 5) A solid iron pole consists of a cylinder of height 220 cm and base diameter 24 cm, which
is surmounted by another cylinder of height 60 cm and radius 8 cm. Find the mass of the pole, given
that 1 cm3 of iron has approximately 8 g mass. (Use 𝝅 =3.14)
Solution:
The figure drawn below is to visualize the iron pole.
We can see that,
Volume of the solid iron pole = volume of larger cylinder + volume of smaller cylinder
Mass of iron in the pole = 8 g × volume of the solid iron pole in cm3
We will find the volume of the solid by using formula;
Volume of the cylinder = 𝝅r2h where r and h are the radius and height of the cylinder respectively
Radius of larger cylinder, R = 24 cm/2 = 12 cm
Height of larger cylinder, H = 220 cm
Radius of smaller cylinder, r = 8 cm
Height of smaller cylinder, h = 60 cm
Volume of the solid iron pole = volume of larger cylinder + volume of smaller cylinder
= 𝝅R2H + 𝝅r2h
= 𝝅(12 cm × 12 cm × 220 cm + 8 cm × 8 cm × 60 cm)
=3.14 × (31680 cm3 + 3840 cm3)
= 3.14 × 35520 cm3
= 111532.8 cm3
Mass of 1 cm3 iron is 8 g
Mass of iron in the pole = 8 g × volume of the solid iron pole
= 8 g × 111532.8
= 892262.4 g
= 892262.4/1000 kg
= 892.2624 kg
Thus, the mass of iron in the pole is 892.26 kg.

Question: 6) A river 3 m deep and 40 m wide is flowing at the rate of 2 km per hour. How much water
will fall into the sea in a minute?
Solution:
We have to find the amount of water that will fall into the sea in a minute.
Since the water in the river flows in a cuboidal shape and the volume of the water that falls into the sea is
nothing but the volume of the cuboid.
The volume of the cuboid of length l, breadth b, and height h, = lbh
Water is flowing at the rate of 2 km per hour, but we need to change this into meters per minute so that we
can obtain the length of the flowing water in a minute.
Hence, we can easily find the volume of water that falls into the sea by calculating the volume of the cuboid.
Width of the river, b ​ = 40 m
Depth of the river, h ​ = 3 m
Flowing rate of water = 2 km / h
= 2000 m / 60 min
= 100/3 m/min
Length of the water flowing in 1 minute, I = 100/3 m
The volume of the water that falls into the sea in 1 minute ​ = l × b × h
=100/3 m × 40 m × 3 m
= 4000 m3
Thus, 4000 m3 of water will fall into the sea in a minute

Question: 7) If the radius of the base of a right circular cone is 3r and its height is equal to the radius
of the base, then its volume is

(a) 3

(b) 3

(c) 3𝝅r3
(d) 9𝝅r3
Solution:
The formula of the volume of a cone with base radius 'r' and vertical height 'h' is given as
1 2
Volume of cone = 3
π𝑟 ℎ
Here it is given that the base radius is '3r' and that the vertical height is '3r’
Substituting these values in the above equation we get
1 2
Volume of cone = 3
π(3𝑟) (3r)
= 9𝝅r3

Question: 8) 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 and the volume of the vessel.
Solution:
Let's create a figure of the vessel according to the given description.
From the figure it's clear that the inner surface area of the vessel includes
the curved surface area CSA of the hemisphere and the cylinder.
Inner surface area of the vessel = CSA of the hemisphere + CSA of the cylinder
We will find the area of the vessel by using formulae;
CSA of the hemisphere = 2𝝅r2, where r is the radius of the hemisphere.
CSA of the cylinder = 2𝝅rh
Where r and h are the radius and height of the cylinder respectively.
Height of the cylinder = Total height of the vessel - height of the hemisphere.
Diameter of the hemisphere, d = 14 cm
Radius of the hemisphere, r = 14/2 cm = 7 cm
Height of the hemisphere = radius of the hemisphere, r = 7cm
Radius of the cylinder, r = 7 cm
Height of the cylinder = Total height of the vessel - height of the hemisphere
h = 13 cm - 7 cm = 6 cm
Inner surface area of the vessel = CSA of the hemisphere + CSA of the cylinder
= 2𝝅r2 + 2𝝅rh
= 2𝝅r (r +h)
= 2 × 22/7 × 7cm (7 cm + 6 cm)
=2 × 22 × 13 cm2
= 572 cm2
Thus, the inner surface area of the vessel is 572 cm2.

Question: 9) A medicine capsule is in the shape of a cylinder with two hemispheres stuck to each of its
ends (see Fig.). The length of the entire capsule is 14 mm and the diameter of the capsule is 5 mm.
Find its surface area

Solution:
As the capsule is in the shape of a cylinder with 2 hemispheres stuck to its ends, the diameter of the capsule
is equal to the diameter of its cylindrical part and the diameter of its hemispherical part.
From Fig., it's clear that the capsule has the curved surface of two hemispheres and the curved surface of a
cylinder.
Surface area of the capsule = 2 × CSA of hemispherical part + CSA of cylindrical part
The surface area of the capsule can be found by using formulae;
CSA of the hemisphere = 2𝝅r2, where r is the radius of the hemisphere
CSA of the cylinder = 2𝝅rh, where r and h are the radius and height of the cylinder respectively.
Diameter of the capsule, d = 5 mm
Radius of the hemisphere, r = d/2 = 5/2 mm
Radius of the cylinder, r = 5/2 mm
Length of the cylinder = Length of the capsule - 2 × radius of the
hemisphere
h=14 mm - 2 × 5/2 mm = 9 mm
Surface area of the capsule = 2 × CSA of hemispherical part + CSA of
cylindrical part
=2 × 2𝝅r2 + 2𝝅rh
= 2𝝅r (2r +h)
= [2× 22/7 × 5/2 mm× (2×5/2mm+9mm)]
= 110/7 mm × 14 mm
= 220 mm2
Thus, the surface area of the capsule is 220 mm.2

Question: 10) Tamper-proof tetra-packed milk guarantees both freshness and security. This milk
ensures uncompromised quality, preserving the nutritional values within and making it a reliable
choice for health-conscious individuals. 500 mL milk is packed in a cuboidal container of dimensions
15 cm × 8 cm × 5 cm. These milk packets are then packed in cuboidal cartons of dimensions 30 cm ×
32 cm × 15 cm.
Based on the above given information, answer the following questions :
(i) Find the volume of the cuboidal carton.
(ii) (a) Find the total surface area of a milk packet.
(ii) (b) How many milk packets can be filled in a carton ?
(iii) How much milk can the cup (as shown in the figure) hold ?
Solution:
i. Volume = l × w × h
I is the length,
w is the width, and
h is the height of the cuboid.
Given the dimensions of the cuboidal carton are 30 cm × 32 cm × 15 cm, we can plug these values into the
formula to calculate the volume.
= 30 × 32 × 15
= 14400
∴The volume of the cuboidal carton is 14400 cm3
ii. a. To find the total surface area of the milk packet, which is a cuboidal container, we use the formula for
the surface area of a cuboid:
Total Surface Area (TSA) = 2(lw + Ih + wh) Total Surface Area (TSA)
Where:
●​ I is the length,
●​ w is the width, and
●​ h is the height of the cuboid.
Given the dimensions of the milk packet are 15 cm × 8 cm × 5 cm, we can plug these values into the
formula to calculate the TSA.
The total surface area of the milk packet is 470 cm2.

ii. b. We will compare the volume of one milk packet to the volume of the carton. Each packet is 500 ml or
500 cm3 (since 1 ml = 1 cm3).
We already calculated the volume of the carton to be 14400 cm3.
Now, let's calculate the number of milk packets that can be filled in a carton by dividing the volume of the
carton by the volume of one milk packet.
A carton can hold 28.8 milk packets. However, since you can't have a fraction of a packet, the number of
whole milk packets that can be filled in a carton would be 28.
iii. The cup is shown as a cylinder, and the volume V of a cylinder is calculated using the formula:
V = 𝝅r2h
where r is the radius of the base of the cylinder and hh is the height. From the figure, we can see that the
cup's height is 5 cm.
However, the radius is not provided. If we can assume that the diameter is equal to the height (which is a
common design for many cups), then the radius would be half of the height, which is 2.5 cm.
Let's proceed with this assumption and calculate the volume of the cup. If the assumption is incorrect, we
would need the actual radius to calculate the volume accurately.
Let's calculate the volume with the assumption that radius r = 2.5 cm and height h = 5 cm.
V = 𝝅r2h
22 2
= 7
× 2. 5 × 5
= 3.142 × 6.25 × 5
= 98.18 cm3
The cup can hold approximately 98.18 cm3 of milk, which is roughly 98 ml since 1 cm3 is equivalent to 1
ml.
