Question 11:

The volume and the curved surface area of a cylinder are 1650 cm3 and 660 cm2 respectively. Find the radius and height of the cylinder.

Answer:

Curved surface area of the cylinder = 2πrh  =660 cm2     ... (1)
Volume of the cylinder = πr2h   =1650 cm3                       ... (2)

From (1) and (2), we can calculate the radius (r) and the height of cylinder (h).
We know the volume of the cylinder, i.e. 1650 cm3
∴  1650 = πr2h
     
   h = 1650πr2

Substituting h into (1):
660 = 2πrh

660 = 2πr × 1650πr2
660r = 2(1650)
r = 5 cm

h = 1650πr2     = 1650227×52 = 21 cm.

Hence, the radius and the height of the cylinder are 5 cm and 21 cm, respectively.

Question 12:

The radii of two cylinders are in the ratio 2 : 3 and their heights are in the ratio 5 : 3. Calculate the ratio of their volumes.

Answer:

Here, r1 = Radius of cylinder 1
         h1 = Height of cylinder 1
         r2 = Radius of cylinder 2
         h2 = Height of cylinder 2
         V1 = Volume of cylinder 1
         V2 = Volume of cylinder 2
Ratio of the radii of two cylinders = 2:3
Ratio of the heights of two cylinders = 5:3

Volume of the cylinder =  πr2h
V1/V2 = (πr12h1)/(πr22h2) = (π(2r)25h)/(π(3r)23h
V1/V2 = (π4r25h)/(π9r23h) = 20 / 27
Hence, the ratio of their volumes is 20:27

Question 13:

The ratio between the curved surface area and the total surface area of a right circular cylinder is 1 : 2. Find the volume of the cylinder, if its total surface area is 616 cm2.

Answer:

Let r cm be the radius and h cm be the length of the cylinder. The curved surface area and the total surface area is 1:2.
The total surface area is 616 cm2.
The curved surface area is the half of 616 cm2, i.e. 308 cm2​.

Curved area = 2πrh

       So, h = 3082πr
Total surface area = Curved surface area + Top and bottom area
Top and bottom area = 616 - 308 = 308 cm2 = 2πr2

r2 = 3082×227
r = 7 cm

h = 3082×π×7 = 7cm

Then, the volume of the cylinder can be calculated as follows:

V = 227× 72 × 7 = 1078
Hence, it is obtained that the volume of the cylinder is 1078 cm3.

Question 14:

The curved surface area of a cylinder is 1320 cm2 and its base has diameter 21 cm. Find the volume of the cylinder.

Answer:

r cm = Radius of the cylinder
h cm = Height of the cylinder

Diameter of the cylinder is 21 cm. Thus, the radius is 10.5 cm.
Since the curved surface area has been known, we can calculate h by the equation given below:

The curved surface area of the cylinder = 2πrh
1320 cm2= 2πrh
1320 cm2= 2 x 22 x (10.5 cm) x h
​                       7
h = 20 cm

∴ Volume of the cylinder (V) = πr2h
V = 22(10.5 cm)2(20 cm)
        7
V = 6930 cm3

Question 15:

The ratio between the radius of the base and the height of a cylinder is 2 : 3. Find the total surface area of the cylinder, if its volume is 1617 cm3.

Answer:

Let r cm be the radius and h cm be the height of the cylinder. It is given that the ratio of r and h is 2:3, so h = 1.5r
The volume of the cylinder (V) is 1617 cm3.

So, we can find the radius and the height of the cylinder from the equation given below:
V= πr2h
1617 = πr2h
1617 = πr2(1.5r)
 r3 =343
r = 7 cm and h = 10.5 cm

Total surface area = 2πr2+2πrh

Question 16:

The curved surface area of a cylindrical pillar is 264 m2 and its volume is 924 m3. Find the diameter and the height of the pillar.

Answer:

Here, m= radius of the cylinder
         h m= height of the cylinder

Curved surface area of the cylinder = 2πrh     ... (1)
Volume of the cylinder = πr2h                        ... (2)
            924 = πr2h
            h=924πr2

Then, substitute h into equation (1):
264 = 2πrh
264=2πr924πr2
264r = 2(924)
      r=2×924264
r = 7 m, so d = 14 m

h=924πr2

 h=924227×72=6 m
Hence, the diameter and the height of the cylinder are 14 m and 6 m, respectively.

Question 17:

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

Answer:

Here, V1 = Volume of cylinder 1
         V2 = Volume of cylinder 2
          r1 = Radius of cylinder 1
          r2 = Radius of cylinder 2
          h1 = Height of cylinder 1
          h2 = Height of cylinder 2

Volumes of cylinder 1 and 2 are equal.
Height of cylinder 1 is half the height of cylinder 2.
​V1 = V2
r12h1) = (πr22h2
r12h) = (πr222h
r12r22=21
r1r2=21

Thus, the ratio of their radii is 2 : 1.

Question 18:

The height of a right circular cylinder is 10.5 m. Three times the sum of the areas of its two circular faces is twice the area of the curved surface. Find the volume of the cylinder.

Answer:

It is known that three times the sum of the areas of the two circular faces, of the right circular cylinder, is twice the area of the curved surface.
Hence, it can be written using the following formula:
3 (2πr2) = 2(2πrh)
r2 = 2πrh
3r = 2h
It is known that the height of the cylinder (h) is 10.5 m.
Substituting this number in the equation:
3r = 2(10.5)
r = 7 m

Volume of the cylinder = πr2h
                             = 22 (72) (10.5)
                                7
                             = 1617 m3
Thus, the volume of the cylinder is 1617 m3.

Question 19:

How many cubic metres of earth must be dug-out to sink a well 21 m deep and 6 m diameter?

Answer:

The volume of the earth that must be dug out is similar to the volume of the cylinder which is equal to πr2h.
Height of the well =21 m
Diameter of the well= 6 m
∴ Volume of the earth that must be dug out = (π (32) (21)) m3= 594 m3

Question 20:

The trunk of a tree is cylindrical and its circumference is 176 cm. If the length of the trunk is 3 m, find the volume of the timber that can be obtained from the trunk.

Answer:

Circumference of the tree = 176 cm = 2πr
Length of the trunk, h= 3 m =300 cm
So, the radius (r) can be calculated by:
r=1762×227=28 cm
Thus, the volume (V) of the timber can be calculated using the following formula:
V = πr2(h) =22 (28 )2 (300) cm3 = 739200 cm3 = 0.74 m3

Question 21:

A well is dug 20 m deep and it has a diameter of 7 m. The earth which is so dug out is spread out on a rectangular plot 22 m long and 14 m broad. What is the height of the platform so formed?

Answer:

Height of the well = h m = 20 m
Diameter of the well = d m =7 m
Radius of the well = r m = 3.5 m
Volume of the well = πr2h = 22(3.5)2(20 ) m3= 770 m3
​                                                  7
Volume of the well = Volume of the rectangular plot
Length of the rectangular plot = 22 m
Breadth of the rectangular plot =14 m
Volume of the rectangular plot = 770 m3 = (Length× Breadth ×Height) of the rectangular plot
Height =77022×14=2.5 m

Thus, the height of the platform is 2.5 m.

Question 22:

A well with 14 m diameter is dug 8 m deep. The earth taken out of it has been evenly spread all around it to a width of 21 m to form an embankment. Find the height of the embankment.

Answer:

Diameter of the well = d m = 14 m
Height of the well = h m = 8 m
Radius of the well = r m = 7 m
Volume of the well = πr2 h = π(7 m)2(8 m) = 1232 m3
Volume of the well = Volume of the embankment 

An embankment is a hollow cylinder with thickness. Its inner radius would be equal to the radius of the well, i.e. r = 7 m, and its outer radius is R = 7 + 21 = 28 m.

Volume of the embankment = πh(R2-r2)


To find the height (h), we use the fact that the volume of the embankment is equal to the volume of the well.
1232= πh ((28)2-(7)2)
h=1232227×[(28)2-(7)2]=0.533 m

Hence, the height of the embankment is 0.533 m or 53.3 cm.

Question 23:

A cylindrical container with diameter of base 56 cm contains sufficient water to submerge a rectangular solid of iron with dimensions 32 cm × 22 cm × 14 cm. Find the rise in the level of the water when the solid is completely submerged.

Answer:

Diameter of the cylindrical container = d cm = 56 cm
Radius of the cylindrical container = r cm = 28 cm
Volume of cylindrical container = Volume of the rectangular solid
Length of the rectangular solid = 32 cm
Breadth of the rectangular solid = 22 cm
Height of the rectangular solid = 14 cm
Volume of the rectangular solid = Length x Breadth x Height = 32 cm x 22 cm x 14 cm = 9856 cm3
Volume of the cylindrical container = 9856 cm3 = πr2h
                                                   9856 cm3 = 22(28 cm)2h
​                                                                       7
                                                                h = 4 cm
Thus, when the solid is completely submerged, the water will rise up to 4 cm.

Question 24:

A rectangular sheet of paper 30 cm × 18 cm can be transformed into the curved surface of a right circular cylinder in two ways i.e., either by rolling the paper along its length or by rolling it along its breadth. Find the ratio of the volumes of the two cylinders thus formed.

Answer:

Case 1:
Height = h cm = 30 cm
Diameter = d cm = 18 cm
Radius = r cm = 9 cm
∴ Volume = (πr2h) or (π(9 )2(30 )) = 2430π cm3

Case 2:
Height = h cm = 18 cm
Diameter = d cm = 30 cm,
Radius = r cm = 15 cm
∴ Volume = (πr2h) or (π(15 )2(18 )) = 4050π cm3

Hence, the ratio of the volumes of the two cylinders formed is 3:5.

Question 25:

The rain which falls on a roof 18 m long and 16.5 m wide is allowed to be stored in a cylindrical tank 8 m in diameter. If it rains 10 cm on a day, what is the rise of water level in the tank due to it?

Answer:

Length of the water on a roof = 18 m
Breadth of the water on a roof = 16.5 m
Height of the water on a roof = 10 cm=0.1 m
Volume of the water on a roof = Length × Breadth  × Height = 18 m × 16.5 m × 0.1 m = 29.7 m3
Since water is to be stored in the cylindrical tank, the volume of water on a roof is equal to the volume of a cylindrical tank.
Volume of cylindrical tank = πr2h = 29.7 m3
h=29.7227×(4)2=0.5906 m=59.06 cm
Thus, the rise of water level in the tank is 59.06 cm.

Radius of the ductile metal = 0.5 cm
Volume of the ductile metal = πr2(length) = π(0.5 cm)2(5 cm) = 1.25π cm3
Ductile metal is drawn into a wire of diameter 1 mm.
Radius of the wire = 0.5 mm = 0.05 cm
Length of wire=1.25π cm3π0.05 cm2=500 cm =5 m
Thus, the length of wire is 5 m.

 Volume of the brass = 2.2 dm3 = 2200 cm3

Volume of the brass = Volume of the cylindrical wire
Length of wire =2200 cm3227×0.125 cm2=44800 cm=448 m

Question 29:

The difference between inside and outside surfaces of a cylindrical tube 14 cm long is 88 sq. cm. If the volume of the tube is 176 cubic cm, find the inner and outer radii of the tube.

Answer:

r = Inner radii of the tube
R = Outer radii of the tube
h = Length of the tube

h(R-r) = 88                          ... (1)      
πh(R2-r2) = 176                      ... (2)

Substituting h = 14 cm in equation (1) and (2):

π​(R-r) = 88/28                        ... (1)                                       
π(R-r)(R+r)= 176/14​             ... (2)

Simplifying the second equation by substituting it with the first equation:
R+r=4 cm or R=(4-r) cm
Re-substituting R=4-r into equation (1):
22 (4-r-r) = 88
7                 28
4-2r = 1
r = 1.5 cm
R = 4-1.5 = 2.5 cm

Hence, the inner and the outer radii of the tube are 1.5 and 2.5 cm, respectively.

         R = Outer radius
         t = Thickness = 0.8 cm
        h = Length = 25 cm

R = r + t = 5.2 cm + 0.8 cm = 6 cm
Volume of the metal = π h (R2 - r2)

How many litres of water flow out of a pipe having an area of cross-section of 5 cm2 in one minute, if the speed of water in the pipe is 30 cm/sec?

Answer:

We know:
Area of cross section = 5 cm2
Rate = 30 cm/s and
Time =1 min
So, the volume of water flow is:
Volume = Volumetric rate × Time = (30 cm/s)(5 cm2)(60 s/min) = 9000 cm3 = 9 litres

Thus, 9 litres of water flows out of the pipe.

Question 36:

A solid cylinder has a total surface area of 231 cm2. Its curved surface area is 23 of the total surface area. Find the volume of the cylinder.

Answer:

We know that the total surface area of the cylinder is 231 cm2 and the curved surface area is 2/3 of the total surface area.
So, the curved surface area is:
2/3 × (231 cm2) = 154 cm2

Then, the radius of the cylinder can be calculated in the following manner:
Curved surface area = 2πrh
​154 cm2 = 2πrh         ... (1)
Here, r  cm is the radius of the cylinder and h cm is the length of the cylinder.
2πr2 = (231-154) cm2 = 77 cm2
77 cm2 = 2π​r2
From here, the radius (r) can be calculated in the following manner:

r = 772×227
r = 3.5 cm

Substituting this result into equation (1):
154 cm2 = 2π(3.5 cm)h
h= 154 cm2 / (2x 22 x (3.5cm))
                             7
h = 7 cm

V = π​r2h227 ​x (3.5 cm)2 x (7 cm) = 269.5 cm3

Hence, the volume of the cylinder is 269.5 cm3.

Volume of the hollow cylinder = πh(R2 - r2) = π (16) (102 - (10-0.25)2) = 79 π cm3

Volume of the solid cylinder = Volume of the hollow cylinder
We know that the radius of the solid cylinder is 1 cm.
