  • Question 1
    CBSEENMA10008805

    2 cubes each of volume 64 cm3 are joined end to end. Find the surface area of the resulting cuboid.

    Solution

    Let ‘a’ be the length of a side of a cube. Then
    Volume of one cube = 64 cm3
    ⇒    n3 = 65 cm3
    ⇒    n = 4 cm
    On joining the cubes, a cuboid is formed.
    Then The length of the resulting cuboid (l) = 2
    The breadth of the resulting cuboid (b) = a cm
    The thickness of the resulting cuboid (h) = a cm
    Now,
    Surface area of the resulting cuboid
    = 2(lb + bh + hl)
    = 2 (2a. a + a. a + a. 2a)
    = 2 (2a2 + a2 + 2a2)
    = 2 (5a2) = 10a2 = 10 (4)2
    = 160 cm2.

    Question 2
    CBSEENMA10008806

    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 curved surface area of the vessel.

    Solution

    Let r cm be the radius of the cylinder and h cm be the height of the cylinder, then
    r = 7 cm,
    and    h = (13–7) cm
    = 6 cm.
    Let r1 cm be the radius of the hemisphere, then
    r1 = 7 cm
    Now,
    the inner curved surface area of the vessel
    = C,S.A of hemisphere
    + C,S.A of cylinder
    = (2πr12 + 2 π rh) cm2
    = (2 π r2 + 2 π rh) cm2 [∵ r1 = r]
    = [2 π r (r + h)] cm2

    = (44 x 13) cm2
    = 572 cm2.

    Question 3
    CBSEENMA10008807

    A toy is in the form of a cone of radius 3.5 cm mounted on a hemisphere of same radius. The total height of the toy is 15.5 cm. Find the total surface area of the toy.

    Solution
    Let r cm be the radius, h cm be the height and l cm be the slant height of the cone, then

    r = 3.5 cm,
    h = (15.5 – 3.5) cm = 12 cm.
    Now,   l = square root of straight r squared plus straight h squared end root

space space space space space space space equals space square root of 12.25 plus 144 end root
space space space space space space space equals space square root of 156.25 end root
space space space space space space space equals space 12.5 space cm.

     Let r1 cm be the radius of the hemisphere.
    Then, r1 = 3.5 cm    [∵ r = r1]
    Now,
    The total surface area of the toy
    = CSA of hemisphere
    + CSA of cone
    = 2 π r12 + πrl
    = 2π r2 + πrl    [ ∵ r1= r]
    = π r [2r + l]
    equals space 22 over 7 space straight x space 3.5 space left square bracket 2 space straight x space 3.5 space plus space 12.5 right square bracket

    Question 4
    CBSEENMA10008808

    A cubical block of side 7 cm is surmounted by a hemisphere. What is the greatest diameter the hemisphere can have? Find the surface area of the solid.

    Solution

    Let a be the length of an edge of the cube. Then
    a = 7 cm
    Greatest diameter of the hemisphere
    = Length of an edge of the cube
    = 7 cm
    Now,
    Surface area of the cube
    = 6 (edge)2
    = 6 x 72
    = 6 x 49 = 294 cm2
    Let r be the radius of the hemisphere.
    Then,       r = 7 over 2 space cm
    Now,  
    Curbed surface area of hemisphere
    equals space 2 πr squared
equals space open parentheses 2 space straight x space 22 over 7 straight x 7 over 2 straight x 7 over 2 close parentheses
equals space 77 space cm squared
    And,  Base area = πr squared equals open parentheses 22 over 7 straight x 7 over 2 straight x 7 over 2 close parentheses space cm squared
                                  space space space equals space space 77 over 2 space cm squared
    Total surface area
    = Surface area of the cube + curved surface area of the hemisphere – base area of the hemisphere
    equals space open parentheses 294 space plus space 77 minus 77 over 2 close parentheses space cm squared
equals space open parentheses 294 plus 77 over 2 close parentheses space cm squared equals space left parenthesis 294 plus 38.5 right parenthesis space cm squared
equals space 332.5 space cm squared
