The rain water from a roof 22 m × 20 m drains into a cylindrical vessel having a diameter of 2 m and height 3.5 m. If the vessel is just full, then the rainfall (in cm) is:
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:
Volume of vessel = Volume of roof
π × r2 × h = 22 × 20 × x   (where x is rainfall in cm)
$$\eqalign{ & \Rightarrow \frac{{22}}{7} \times \frac{{100 \times 100 \times 350}}{{22 \times 20 \times 100 \times 100}} = {\text{x}} \cr & \Rightarrow {\text{x}} = 2.5{\text{ cm}} \cr} $$

The base of a right prism is an equilateral triangle. If the lateral surface area and volume are 120 cm2, 40√3 cm3 respectively then the side of base of the prism is
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option A
Solution:
Lateral surface area of prism = 120
Base perimeter × height = 120
3 × (side) × height = 120
(Perimeter of equilateral Δ = 3 × side)
Side × height = $$\frac{{120}}{3}$$  = 40 . . . . . (i)
Volume of prism = 40√3
Area of base × height = 40√3
$$\frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{4}$$ (side)2 × height = 40√3
(side)2 × height = $$ = \frac{{40\sqrt 3 \times 4}}{{\sqrt 3 }}$$   = 160 . . . . . (ii)
Dividing equation (ii) by equation (i)
$$\frac{{{{\left( {{\text{side}}} \right)}^2} \times {\text{height}}}}{{{\text{side}} \times {\text{height}}}} = \frac{{160}}{{40}}$$
side = 4 cm

A solid cube is cut into three cuboids of same volumes. What is the ratio of the surface area of the cube to the sum of the surface areas of any two of the cuboids so formed?
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option A
Solution:
Let the side of cube is 3 m
Mensuration 3D mcq question image
Surface are of cube = 6 × 32 = 54
Surface are of one cuboid = 2($$l$$b + bh + h$$l$$)
= 2(1 × 3 + 3 × 3 + 3 × 1)
= 2(3 + 9 + 3)
= 30
Cube : 2 Cuboid = 54 : 2 × 30 = 9 : 10

A ball of lead 4 cm in diameter is covered with gold. If the volume of the gold and lead are equal, then the thickness of gold (given $$\root 3 \of 2 $$  = 1.259) is approximately
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
Mensuration 3D mcq question image
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Volume of lead}} = \frac{4}{3}\pi {r^3} \cr & {\text{Volume of gold}} = \frac{4}{3}\pi {R^3} - \frac{4}{3}\pi {r^3} \cr & {\text{According to the question,}} \cr & \frac{4}{3}\pi {R^3} - \frac{4}{3}\pi {r^3} = \frac{4}{3}\pi {r^3} \cr & \frac{4}{3}\pi {R^3} = \frac{8}{3}\pi {r^3} \cr & {R^3} = 2{r^3} \cr & {R^3} = 2{\left( 2 \right)^3} \cr & R = \root 3 \of 2 \times 2 \cr & R = 1.259 \times 2 \cr & R = 2.518 \cr & \therefore {\text{Thickness}} = R - r \cr & = 2.518 - 2 \cr & = 0.518{\text{ cm}} \cr} $$

The volume of a right circular cone is 1232 cm3 and its vertical height is 24 cm. Its curved surface area is
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Volume of a cone}} = \frac{1}{3}\pi {r^2}h \cr & \frac{1}{3}\pi {r^2}\left( {24} \right) = 1232{\text{ c}}{{\text{m}}^2} \cr & {r^2} = \frac{{1232 \times 3 \times 7}}{{24 \times 22}} \cr & {r^2} = 7 \times 7 \cr & r = \sqrt {7 \times 7} \cr & r = 7{\text{ cm}} \cr & l = \sqrt {{r^2} + {h^2}} \cr & = \sqrt {{7^2} + {{24}^2}} \cr & = \sqrt {625} \cr & = 25 \cr & {\text{Curved surface area}} = \pi rl \cr & = \frac{{22}}{7} \times 7 \times 25 \cr & = 550{\text{ c}}{{\text{m}}^2} \cr} $$

Answer & Solution
Answer: Option C
Solution:

A hollow cylindrical tube 20 cm long is made of iron and its external and internal diameters are 8 cm and 6 cm respectively. The volume of iron used in making the tube is $$\left( {\pi = \frac{{22}}{7}} \right)$$
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option C
Solution:
External radius R = 4 cm
Internal radius r = 3 cm
Volume of iron used = πR2h - πr2h
= πh(R2 - r2)
= πh(R + r)(R - r)
= $$\frac{{22}}{7}$$ × 20 × (4 + 3) × (4 - 3)
= $$\frac{{22}}{7}$$ × 20 × 7 × 1
= 440 cm3

Answer & Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Volume of sphere}} = \frac{4}{3}\pi {r^3} \cr & = \frac{4}{3}\pi {\left( 9 \right)^3} \cr & = 972\pi {\text{ c}}{{\text{m}}^3} \cr & {\text{Volume of cone}} = \frac{1}{3}\pi {r^2}h \cr & = \frac{1}{3}\pi {\left( 9 \right)^2}9 \cr & = 243\pi {\text{ c}}{{\text{m}}^3} \cr & \Rightarrow \% {\text{ of wasted wood}} \cr & = \frac{{\left( {972 - 243} \right)\pi }}{{972\pi }} \times 100 \cr & = 75\% \cr} $$

If the number of vertices, edges and faces of a rectangular parallelopiped are denoted by v, e and f respectively, the value of (v - e + f) is
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
We know that
A parallelopiped has vertices (v) = 8
edge (e) = 12
face (f) = 6
Put into equation (v - e + f)
⇒ 8 - 12 + 6
⇒ 2
