Selina Solutions Concise Maths Class 10 Chapter 20 Cylinder, Cone and Sphere (Surface Area and Volume) Exercise 20(D)

1. A solid sphere of radius 15 cm is melted and recast into solid right circular cones of radius 2.5 cm and height 8 cm. Calculate the number of cones recast.

Solution:

Given,

Radius of the sphere = R = 15 cm

So, the volume of sphere melted = 4/3 πR2 = 4/3 x π x 15 x 15 x 15

Radius of each cone recasted = r = 2.5 cm

And, height of each cone recasted = h = 8 cm

So, volume of each cone recasted = 1/3 πr2h = 1/3 x π x 2.5 x 2.5 x 8

Thus,

Number of cones recasted = Volume of sphere melted/ Volume of each cone formed

= 270

2. A hollow sphere of internal and external diameters 4 cm and 8 cm respectively is melted into a cone of base diameter 8 cm. Find the height of the cone.

Solution:

Given,

External diameter of the hollow sphere = 8 cm

So, radius (R) = 4 cm

Internal diameter of the hollow sphere = 4 cm

So, radius (r) = 2 cm

Then, the volume of metal used in hollow sphere = 

Also given,

Diameter of cone = 8 cm

Therefore, radius = 4 cm

Let height of the cone = h

Volume = 1//3 πr2h = 1/3 x 22/7 x 4 x 4 x h = 352/21 h …. (ii)

So, according to the question

From (i) and (ii), we have

h = (88 x 56 x 21)/ (21 x 352) = 14 cm

Thus, the height of the cone = 14 cm

3. The radii of the internal and external surfaces of a metallic spherical shell are 3 cm and 5 cm respectively. It is melted and recast into a solid right circular cone of height 32 cm. find the diameter of the base of the cone.

Solution:

Given,

Height of the solid right circular cone = 32 cm

Internal radius metallic spherical shell = 3 cm

External radius spherical shell = 5 cm

Then, the volume of the spherical shell = 4/3 π (53 – 33)

= 4/3 x 22/7 x (125 – 27)

= 4/3 x 22/7 x 98

Volume of solid right circular cone = 1/3 πr2h

= 1/3 x 22/7 x r2 x 32

According to the question,

1/3 x 22/7 x r2 x 32 = 4/3 x 22/7 x 98

r2 = (4 x 98)/ 32

r = 7/2 = 3.5 cm

Therefore, diameter = 2r = 7 cm

4. Total volume of three identical cones is the same as that of a bigger cone whose height is 9 cm and diameter 40 cm. Find the radius of the base of each smaller cone, if height of each is 108 cm.

Solution:

Let the radius of the smaller cone be r cm

Given,

Diameter of bigger cone = 40 cm

So, the radius = 20 cm and height = 9 cm

Volume of larger cone = 1/3 π x (20)2 x 9

And,

The volume of the smaller cone = 1/3 π x r2 x 108

From the question, we have

Volume of larger cone = 3 x Volume of smaller cone

1/3 π x (20)2 x 9 = 3 x (1/3 π x r2 x 108)

r2 = (20)2 x 9/ (108 x 3)

r = 20/6 = 10/3 cm

5. A solid rectangular block of metal 49 cm by 44 cm by 18 cm is melted and formed into a solid sphere. Calculate the radius of the sphere.

Solution:

Volume of rectangular block = 49 x 44 x 18 cm3 = 38808 cm3 …… (i)

Let r be the radius of sphere.

So, the volume = 4/3 πr3 = 4/3 x 22/7 x r3 = 88/21 r3 ….. (ii)

Then, according to the question

88/21 r3 = 38808

r3 = (38808 x 21)/ 88 = 441 x 21

= 9261

r = 21 cm

Therefore, the radius of sphere = 21 cm

6. A hemi-spherical bowl of internal radius 9 cm is full of liquid. This liquid is to be filled into conical shaped small containers each of diameter 3 cm and height 4 cm. How many containers are necessary to empty the bowl?

Solution:

Given,

Radius of hemispherical bowl = 9 cm

Volume = 2/3 πr3 = 2/3 π93 = 2/3 π x 729 = 486 π cm2

Diameter of each cylindrical bottle = 3 cm

So, the radius = 1.5 cm and height = 4 cm

Volume of bottle = 1/3 πr2h = 1/3 π(3/2)2 x 4 = 3 π

Thus,

The number of bottles = 486 π/ 3 π

= 162
