NCERT Solutions For Class 9 Maths Chapter 11 Surface Area and Volume - 2025-26

• Exercise 11.1: This exercise explains the surface area and volume of a cylinder. This section helps the students to understand how to find the surface area of a right circular cylinder. We need to split the cylinder into two parts: the middle part and the bottom part.

The curved surface area of cylinder= 2πrh

Total surface area of cylinder = πr2(r+h)

• Exercise 11.2: This exercise explains the surface area and volume of a cone.

This section explains about the cone which has a triangle shape and circle shape. By combining these two areas, Class 9 Surfaces Area and Volumes, the formula of the cone is derived as below,

Curved Surface Area of a Cone = ½  × l ×2πr = πrl

Total Surface Area of a Cone = πrl + πr2 = πr (l + r)

• Exercise 11.3: This exercise includes the conversion of one solid from one shape to another. This covers the volume of a cylinder. 

Volume of a Cylinder = πr2h

• Exercise 11.4: This exercise contains word problems that are based on the surface area and volume of 3D shapes. This understands the difference between cylinder and cone. From that, they derived a formula for the volume of a cone is ⅓ πr2h.

Exercise (11.1)

1. Diameter of the base of a cone is $\text{10}\text{.5 cm}$ and its slant height is $\text{10 cm}$. Find its curved surface area. $\left[ \text{Assume }\pi=\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: We are given the following:

The slant height $\left( \text{l} \right)$ of the cone $\text{= 10 cm}$

The diameter of the base of cone $\text{= 10}\text{.5 cm}$

So, the radius $\left( \text{r} \right)$ of the base of cone $\text{= }\dfrac{\text{10}\text{.5}}{\text{2}}\text{ cm = 5}\text{.25 cm}$

The curved surface area of cone, $\text{A =  }\pi\text{ rl}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{ }\times\text{ 5}\text{.25 }\times\text{ 10} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \text{22 }\times\text{ 0}\text{.75 }\times\text{ 10} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 165 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Therefore, the curved surface area of the cone is $\text{165 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$.

2. Find the total surface area of a cone, if its slant height is $\text{21 m}$and diameter of its base is $\text{24 m}$. $\left[ \text{Assume }\pi=\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: We are given the following:

The slant height $\left( \text{l} \right)$ of the cone $\text{= 21 m}$

The diameter of the base of cone $\text{= 24 m}$

So, the radius $\left( \text{r} \right)$ of the base of cone $\text{= }\dfrac{\text{24}}{\text{2}}\text{ m = 12 m}$

The total surface area of cone, $\text{A =  }\pi\text{ r}\left( \text{l + r} \right)$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  12  }\times\text{  }\left( \text{21 + 12} \right) \right)\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  12  }\times\text{  33} \right)\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 1244}\text{.57 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Therefore, the total surface area of the cone is $\text{1244}\text{.57 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$.

3. Curved surface area of a cone is $\text{308 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$ and its slant height is $\text{14 cm}$. Find

(i) Radius of the base and

Ans: It is given that the slant height $\left( \text{l} \right)$ of the cone $\text{= 14 cm}$

The curved surface area of the cone $\text{= 308 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Let us assume the radius of base of the cone be $\text{r}$.

We know that curved surface area of the cone $\text{=  }\pi\text{ rl}$

$\therefore \text{ }\pi\text{ rl = 308 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \left( \dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  r  }\times\text{  14} \right)\text{ cm = 308 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{r = }\dfrac{\text{308}}{\text{44}}\text{ cm}$

$\Rightarrow \text{r = 7 cm}$

Hence, the radius of the base is $\text{7 cm}$.

(ii) Total surface area of the cone. $\left[ \text{Assume }\pi=\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: The total surface area of the cone is the sum of its curved surface area and the area of the base.

Total surface area of cone, $\text{A =  }\pi\text{ rl +  }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left[ \text{308 + }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{7} \right)}^{\text{2}}} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left[ \text{308 + 154} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 462 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Hence, the total surface area of the cone is $\text{462 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$.

4. A conical tent is $\text{10 m}$ high and the radius of its base is $\text{24 m}$. Find

(i) slant height of the tent

Ans:

From the figure we can say that $\text{ABC}$ is a conical tent.

It is given that the height $\left( \text{h} \right)$ of conical tent $\text{= 10 m}$

The radius $\left( \text{r} \right)$ of conical tent $\text{= 24 m}$

Let us assume the slant height as $\text{l}$.

In $\text{ }\Delta\text{ ABD}$, we will use Pythagorean Theorem.

$\therefore \text{A}{{\text{B}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = AD}{{\text{ }}^{\text{2}}}\text{ + B}{{\text{D}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow {{\text{l}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = }{{\text{h}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ + }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}$

\[\Rightarrow {{\text{l}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = }{{\left( \text{10 m} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{ + }{{\left( \text{24 m} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\]

$\Rightarrow {{\text{l}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 676 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{l = 26 m}$

The slant height of the tent is $\text{26 m}$.

(ii) cost of canvas required to make the tent, if cost of $\text{1 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$ canvas is $\text{Rs}\text{. 70}$. $\left[ \text{Assume }\pi=\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: The curved surface area of the tent, $\text{A =  }\pi\text{ rl}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  24  }\times\text{  26} \right)\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \dfrac{13728}{7} \right)\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

It is given that the cost of $\text{1 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$ of canvas $\text{= Rs}\text{. 70}$

So, the cost of $\dfrac{13728}{7}\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$ canvas $\text{= Rs}\text{. }\left( \dfrac{\text{13728}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  70} \right)\text{ = Rs}\text{. 137280}$

Hence, the cost of canvas required to make the tent is $\text{Rs}\text{. 137280}$.

5. What length of tarpaulin $\text{3 m}$ wide will be required to make conical tent of height $\text{8 m}$ and base radius $\text{6 m}$? Assume that the extra length of material that will be required for stitching margins and wastage in cutting is approximately $\text{20 cm}$. $\left[ \text{Use  }\pi\text{  = 3}\text{.14} \right]$

Ans: We are given the following:

The base radius $\left( \text{r} \right)$ of tent $\text{= 6 m}$

The height $\left( \text{h} \right)$ of tent $\text{= 8 m}$

So the slant height of the tent, $\text{l = }\sqrt{{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ + }{{\text{h}}^{\text{2}}}}$ 

$\Rightarrow \text{l = }\left( \sqrt{{{\text{6}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ + }{{\text{8}}^{\text{2}}}} \right)\text{ m}$

$\Rightarrow \text{l = }\left( \sqrt{\text{100}} \right)\text{ m}$

$\Rightarrow \text{l = 10 m}$

The curved surface area of the tent, $\text{A =  }\pi\text{ rl}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \text{3}\text{.14  }\times\text{  6  }\times\text{  10} \right)\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 188}\text{.4 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

It is give the width of tarpaulin $\text{= 3 m}$

Let us assume the length of the tarpaulin sheet required be $\text{x}$.

It is given that there will be a wastage of $\text{20 cm}$.

So, the new length of the sheet $\text{=}\left( \text{x - 0}\text{.2} \right)\text{ m}$

We know that the area of the rectangular sheet required will be the same as curved surface area of the tent.

$\therefore \left[ \left( \text{x - 0}\text{.2} \right)\text{  }\times\text{  3} \right]\text{ m = 188}\text{.4 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{x - 0}\text{.2 m = 62}\text{.8 m}$

$\Rightarrow \text{x = 63 m}$

The length of tarpaulin sheet required is $\text{63 m}$.

6. The slant height and base diameter of a conical tomb are $\text{25 m}$ and $\text{14 m}$ respectively. Find the cost of white-washing its curved surface at the rate of $\text{Rs}\text{. 210}$ per $\text{100 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$. $\left[ \text{Assume }\pi=\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: We are given the following:

The base radius $\left( \text{r} \right)$ of tomb $\text{= 7 m}$

The slant height $\left( \text{l} \right)$ of tomb $\text{= 25 m}$

The curved surface area of the conical tomb, $\text{A =  }\pi\text{ rl}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \dfrac{22}{7}\text{  }\times\text{  7  }\times\text{  25} \right)\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 550 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

It is given that the cost of white-washing $\text{1 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$ area $\text{= Rs}\text{. 210}$

So, the cost of white-washing $550\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$ area $\text{= Rs}\text{. }\left( \dfrac{\text{210}}{\text{100}}\text{  }\times\text{  550} \right)\text{ = Rs}\text{. 1155}$

Hence, the cost of white-washing the curved surface area of a conical tomb is $\text{Rs}\text{. 1155}$.

7. A joker’s cap is in the form of right circular cone of base radius $\text{7 cm}$ and the height $\text{24 cm}$. Find the area of sheet required to make $\text{10}$ such caps. $\left[ \text{Assume }\pi=\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: We are given the following:

The base radius $\left( \text{r} \right)$ of conical cap $\text{= 7 cm}$

The height $\left( \text{h} \right)$ of conical cap $\text{= 24 cm}$

So the slant height of the tent, $\text{l = }\sqrt{{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ + }{{\text{h}}^{\text{2}}}}$ 

$\Rightarrow \text{l = }\left( \sqrt{{{\text{7}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ + 2}{{\text{4}}^{\text{2}}}} \right)\text{ cm}$

$\Rightarrow \text{l = }\left( \sqrt{625} \right)\text{ cm}$

$\Rightarrow \text{l = 25 cm}$

The curved surface area of one conical cap, $\text{A =  }\pi\text{ rl}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \dfrac{22}{7}\text{  }\times\text{  7  }\times\text{  25} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 550 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

So, the curved surface area of $\text{10}$ conical caps $\text{= }\left( \text{550  }\times\text{  10} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 5500 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Therefore, the total area of sheet required is $\text{5500 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$.

8. A bus stop is barricaded from the remaining part of the road, by using $\text{50}$ hollow cones made of recycled cardboard. Each cone has a base diameter of $\text{40 cm}$ and height $\text{1 m}$. If the outer side of each of the cones is to be painted and the cost of painting is $\text{Rs}\text{. 12}$ per ${{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$, what will be the cost of painting all these cones? 

$\left[ \text{Use  }\pi\text{  = 3}\text{.14 and take }\sqrt{\text{1}\text{.02}}\text{=1}\text{.02} \right]$

Ans: We are given the following:

The base radius $\left( \text{r} \right)$ of cone $\text{= }\dfrac{\text{40}}{\text{2}}\text{ = 20 cm = 0}\text{.2 m}$

The height $\left( \text{h} \right)$ of cone $\text{= 1 m}$

So the slant height of the cone, $\text{l = }\sqrt{{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ + }{{\text{h}}^{\text{2}}}}$ 

$\Rightarrow \text{l = }\left( \sqrt{{{\left( \text{0}\text{.2} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{ + }{{\left( \text{1} \right)}^{\text{2}}}} \right)\text{ m}$

$\Rightarrow \text{l = }\left( \sqrt{1.04} \right)\text{ m}$

$\Rightarrow \text{l = 1}\text{.02 m}$

The curved surface area of one cone, $\text{A =  }\pi\text{ rl}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \text{3}\text{.14  }\times\text{  0}\text{.2  }\times\text{  1}\text{.02} \right)\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 0}\text{.64056 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

So, the curved surface area of $\text{50}$ cones $\text{= }\left( \text{50  }\times\text{  0}\text{.64056} \right)\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 32}\text{.028 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

It is given that the cost of painting $\text{1 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$ area $\text{= Rs}\text{. 12}$

So, the cost of painting $32.028\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$ area $\text{= Rs}\text{. }\left( \text{32}\text{.028  }\times\text{  12} \right)\text{ = Rs}\text{. 384}\text{.336}$

We can also write the cost approximately as $\text{Rs}\text{. 384}\text{.34}$.

Therefore, the cost of painting all the hollow cones is $\text{Rs}\text{. 384}\text{.34}$.

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \text{88  }\times\text{  0}\text{.8  }\times\text{  5}\text{.6} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 394}\text{.24 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \text{4  }\times\text{  44  }\times\text{  14} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 2464 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left[ \text{4  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{7} \right)}^{\text{2}}} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \text{88  }\times\text{  7} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 616 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Hence, the surface area of the sphere is $\text{616 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$.

The required ratio $\text{R = }\dfrac{\text{4 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}_{\text{1}}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{4 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{R = }{{\left( \dfrac{{{\text{r}}_{\text{1}}}}{{{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{R = }{{\left( \dfrac{\text{7}}{\text{14}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{R = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{4}}$

Hence, the ratio of the surface areas of the balloon in both case is $\text{1 : 4}$.

Ans: Given the radius of inner hemispherical bowl $\text{r = }\dfrac{\text{10}\text{.5}}{\text{2}}\text{ = 5}\text{.25 cm}$

The surface area of the hemispherical bowl $\text{A = 2 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left[ \text{2  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{5}\text{.25} \right)}^{\text{2}}} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 173}\text{.25 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

It is given that the cost of tin-plating $\text{100 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$ area $\text{= Rs}\text{. 16}$

So, the cost of tin-plating $173.25\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$ area $\text{= Rs}\text{. }\left( \dfrac{\text{16}}{\text{100}}\text{  }\times\text{  173}\text{.25} \right)\text{ = Rs}\text{. 27}\text{.72}$

6. Find the radius of a sphere whose surface area is $\text{154 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$. $\left[ \text{Assume }\pi=\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: Let us assume the radius of sphere be $\text{r}$.

We are given the surface area of the sphere, $\text{A = 154 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$.

$\therefore \text{4 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 154 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow {{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = }\left( \dfrac{\text{154  }\times\text{  7}}{\text{2  }\times\text{  22}} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{r = }\left( \dfrac{\text{7}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{ cm}$

$\Rightarrow \text{r = 3}\text{.5 cm}$

Therefore, the radius of the sphere is $\text{3}\text{.5 cm}$.

7. The diameter of the moon is approximately one-fourth of the diameter of the earth. Find the ratio of their surface area.

Ans: Let us assume the diameter of earth is $\text{d}$.

So, the diameter of the moon will be $\dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{4}}$.

The radius of the earth ${{\text{r}}_{\text{1}}}\text{ = }\dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{2}}$

The radius of the moon ${{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}\text{ = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{2}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{2}}\text{ = }\dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{8}}$

The ratio of surface area of moon and earth $\text{R = }\dfrac{\text{4 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{4 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}_{\text{1}}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{R = }\dfrac{\text{4 }\pi\text{ }{{\left( \dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{8}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}}{\text{4 }\pi\text{ }{{\left( \dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{2}} \right)}^{\text{2}}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{R = }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{64}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{R = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{16}}$

Therefore, the ratio of surface area of moon and earth is $\text{1 : 16}$.

8. A hemispherical bowl is made of steel, $\text{0}\text{.25 cm}$ thick. The inner radius of the bowl is $\text{5 cm}$. Find the outer curved surface area of the bowl. $\left[ \text{Assume }\pi=\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: Given the inner radius $\text{= 5 cm}$

The thickness of the bowl $\text{= 0}\text{.25 cm}$

So, the outer radius of the hemispherical bowl is $\text{r = }\left( \text{5 + 0}\text{.25} \right)\text{ cm = 5}\text{.25 cm}$

The outer curved surface area of the hemispherical bowl $\text{A = 2 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A =}\left[ \text{ 2  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{2}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{5}\text{.25} \right)}^{\text{2}}} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 173}\text{.25 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Therefore, the outer curved surface area of the hemispherical bowl is $\text{173}\text{.25 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$.

9. A right circular cylinder just encloses a sphere of radius $\text{r}$ (see figure). Find 

(i) surface area of the sphere, 

Ans: The surface area of the sphere is $\text{4 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}$.

(ii) curved surface area of the cylinder, 

Ans:

Given the radius of cylinder $\text{= r}$

The height of cylinder $\text{= r + r = 2r}$

The curved surface area of cylinder $\text{A = 2 }\pi\text{ rh}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 2 }\pi\text{ r }\left( \text{2r} \right)$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 4 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}$

Therefore the curved surface area of cylinder is  $\text{4 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}$.

(iii) ratio of the areas obtained in (i) and (ii).

Ans: The ratio of surface area of the sphere and curved surface area of cylinder  $\text{R = }\dfrac{\text{4 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}}{\text{4 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}}$

$\text{R = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{1}}$

Therefore, the required ratio is $\text{1 : 1}$.

The height of the cone $\text{h = 7 cm}$

The volume of the cone $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{h}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left[ \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{6} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{  }\times\text{  7} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left( \text{12  }\times\text{  22} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 264 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

The volume of the right circular cone is $\text{264 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$.

Ans: It is given the radius of cone $\text{r = 3}\text{.5 cm}$

The height of the cone $\text{h = 12 cm}$

The volume of the cone $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{h}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left[ \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{3}\text{.5} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{  }\times\text{  12} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left( \text{1}\text{.75  }\times\text{  88} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 154 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

The volume of the right circular cone is $\text{154 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$.

2. $\left[ \text{Assume }\pi\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$ Find the capacity in litres of a conical vessel with

(i) Radius $\text{7 cm}$, slant height $\text{25 cm}$

Ans: It is given the radius of cone $\text{r = 7 cm}$

The slant height of the cone $\text{l = 25 cm}$

So, the height of the cone $\text{h = }\sqrt{{{\text{l}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ - }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{h = }\sqrt{\text{2}{{\text{5}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ - }{{\text{7}}^{\text{2}}}}\text{ cm}$

$\Rightarrow \text{h = 24 cm}$

The volume of the cone $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{h}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left[ \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{7} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{  }\times\text{  24} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left( \text{154  }\times\text{  8} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 1232 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

We know that $\text{1000 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ = 1 litre}$

So, the capacity of the conical vessel $\text{= }\dfrac{\text{1232}}{\text{1000}}\text{ = 1}\text{.232 litres}$

Therefore, the capacity of the conical vessel is $\text{1}\text{.232 litres}$.

(ii) height $\text{12 cm}$, slant height $\text{13 cm}$ $\left[ \text{Assume  }\pi\text{  =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: It is given the height of cone $\text{h = 12 cm}$

The slant height of the cone $\text{l = 13 cm}$

So, the radius of the cone $\text{r = }\sqrt{{{\text{l}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ - }{{\text{h}}^{\text{2}}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{r = }\sqrt{\text{1}{{\text{3}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ - 1}{{\text{2}}^{\text{2}}}}\text{ cm}$

$\Rightarrow \text{r = 5 cm}$

The volume of the cone $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{h}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left[ \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{5} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{  }\times\text{  12} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left( \text{4  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  25} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\dfrac{2200}{7}\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

We know that $\text{1000 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ = 1 litre}$

So, the capacity of the conical vessel $\text{= }\dfrac{\text{2200}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{1000}}\text{ = 0}\text{.314 litres}$

Therefore, the capacity of the conical vessel is $\text{0}\text{.314 litres}$.

3. The height of a cone is $\text{15 cm}$. It its volume is $\text{1570 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$, find the diameter of its base. $\left[ \text{Use  }\pi\text{  = 3}\text{.14} \right]$

Ans: It is given the height of cone $\text{h = 12 cm}$

Let us assume the radius of the cone be $\text{r}$.

The volume of the cone is $\text{V = 1570 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

We know the formula for the volume of the cone $\text{= }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{h}$

$\therefore \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{h = 1570 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{r} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{  }\times\text{  12} \right]\text{ cm = 1570 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow {{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 100 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

\[\Rightarrow \text{r = 10 cm}\]

Diameter of base \[\text{= 2r = 20 cm}\]

Therefore, the diameter of the cone is  \[\text{20 cm}\].

4. If the volume of right circular cone of height $\text{9 cm}$ is $\text{48 }\pi\text{  c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$, find the diameter of its base.

Ans: It is given the height of cone $\text{h = 9 cm}$

Let us assume the radius of the cone be $\text{r}$.

The volume of the cone is $\text{V = 48 }\pi\text{  c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

We know the formula for the volume of the cone $\text{= }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{h}$

$\therefore \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{h = 48 }\pi\text{  c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{   }\pi\text{   }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{r} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{  }\times\text{  9} \right]\text{ cm = 48 }\pi\text{  c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow {{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 16 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

\[\Rightarrow \text{r = 4 cm}\]

Diameter of base \[\text{= 2r = 8 cm}\]

Therefore, the diameter of the base of the cone is \[\text{8 cm}\].

5. A conical pit of top diameter $\text{3}\text{.5 m}$ is $\text{12 m}$ deep. What is the capacity in kilolitres? $\left[ \text{Assume  }\pi\text{  =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: It is given the height of conical pit $\text{h = 12 m}$

The radius of conical pit $\text{r = }\dfrac{\text{3}\text{.5}}{\text{2}}\text{ m = 1}\text{.75 m}$

We know the volume of the conical pit $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{h}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left[ \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{1}\text{.75} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{  }\times\text{  12} \right]\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 38}\text{.5 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

We know that $\text{1 kilolitre = 1 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

So, the capacity of the pit $\text{= }\left( \text{38}\text{.5  }\times\text{  1} \right)\text{ kilolitres = 38}\text{.5 kilolitres}$

Therefore, the capacity of the conical pit is $\text{38}\text{.5 kilolitres}$.

6. The volume of a right circular cone is $\text{9856 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$. If the diameter of the base is $\text{28 cm}$, find

(i) Height of the cone

Ans: It is given the diameter of base of cone $\text{= 28 cm}$

So, the radius $\text{r = }\dfrac{\text{28}}{\text{2}}\text{ = 14 cm}$

Let us assume the height of the cone be $\text{h}$.

The volume of the cone is $\text{V = 9856 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

We know the formula for the volume of the cone $\text{= }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{h}$

$\therefore \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{h = 9856 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{22}{7}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{14} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{  }\times\text{  h} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 9856 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

\[\Rightarrow \text{h = }\left( \dfrac{\text{9856  }\times\text{  21}}{\text{22  }\times\text{  196}} \right)\text{ cm}\]

\[\Rightarrow \text{h = 48 cm}\]

Therefore, the height of the cone is \[\text{48 cm}\].

(ii) Slant height of the cone

Ans: The slant height of the cone $\text{l = }\sqrt{{{\text{h}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ + }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{l = }\sqrt{\text{4}{{\text{8}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ + 1}{{\text{4}}^{\text{2}}}}\text{ cm}$

$\Rightarrow \text{l = }\sqrt{\text{2304 + 196}}\text{ cm}$

$\Rightarrow \text{l = 50 cm}$

Therefore, the slant height of the cone is $\text{50 cm}$.

(iii) Curved surface area of the cone. $\left[ \text{Assume  }\pi\text{  =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: The curved surface area of the cone $\text{A =  }\pi\text{ rl}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  14  }\times\text{  50} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 2200 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Therefore, the curved surface area of the cone is $\text{2200 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$.

7. A right triangle $\text{ }\Delta\text{ ABC}$ with sides $\text{5 cm}$,$\text{12 cm}$ and \[\text{13 cm}\] is revolved about the side $\text{12 cm}$. Find the volume of the solid so obtained.

Ans: We will draw the given figure.

If the triangle is revolved about the side $\text{12 cm}$, we will get a cone with:

Radius $\text{r = 5 cm}$

Slant height $\text{l = 13 cm}$

Height $\text{h = 12 cm}$

We know the volume of the cone $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{h}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left[ \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{   }\pi\text{   }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{5} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{  }\times\text{  12} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 100 }\pi\text{  c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

Therefore, the volume of the cone will be $\text{100 }\pi\text{  c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$.

8. If the triangle $\text{ }\Delta\text{ ABC}$ in the Question $\text{7}$ above is revolved about the side $\text{5 cm}$, then find the volume of the solid so obtained. Find also the ratio of the volumes of the two solids obtained in Questions $\text{7}$ and $\text{8}$.

Ans:

If the triangle is revolved about the side $\text{5 cm}$, we will get a cone with:

Radius $\text{r = 12 cm}$

Slant height $\text{l = 13 cm}$

Height $\text{h = 5 cm}$

We know the volume of the cone $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{h}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left[ \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{   }\pi\text{   }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{12} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{  }\times\text{  5} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 240 }\pi\text{  c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

Therefore, the volume of the cone will be $\text{240 }\pi\text{  c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$.

The ratio of volume of cone from previous question an the one we obtained above $\text{= }\dfrac{\text{100 }\pi\text{ }}{\text{240 }\pi\text{ }}\text{ = }\dfrac{\text{5}}{\text{12}}\text{ = 5 : 12}$

Therefore, the required ratio is $\text{5 : 12}$.

9. A heap of wheat is in the form of a cone whose diameter is $\text{10}\text{.5 m}$and height is $\text{3 m}$. Find its volume. The heap is to be covered by canvas to protect it from rain. Find the area of the canvas required.

$\left[ \text{Assume  }\pi\text{  =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: It is given that diameter of the heap $\text{= 10}\text{.5 m}$

So, the radius of heap $\text{r = }\dfrac{\text{10}\text{.5}}{\text{2}}\text{ = 5}\text{.25 m}$

Height of heap $\text{h = 3 m}$

We know the volume of the cone $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{h}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left[ \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{22}{7}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{5}\text{.25} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{  }\times\text{  3} \right]\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 86}\text{.625 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

Hence, the volume of heap is $\text{86}\text{.625 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$.

The area of canvas required is same as curved surface area of the cone.

$\therefore \text{A =  }\pi\text{ rl}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A =  }\pi\text{ r}\sqrt{{{\text{h}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ + }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  5}\text{.25  }\times\text{  }\sqrt{{{\left( \text{3} \right)}^{\text{2}}}\text{ + }{{\left( \text{5}\text{.25} \right)}^{\text{2}}}}\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = }\left( \dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  5}\text{.25  }\times\text{  6}\text{.05} \right)\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{A = 99}\text{.825 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Therefore, to protect the heap from the rain, the amount of canvas required is $\text{99}\text{.825 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$.

The volume of the sphere $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V =}\left[ \text{ }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{7} \right)}^{\text{3}}} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\dfrac{\text{4312}}{\text{3}}\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 1437}\text{.33 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

Therefore, the volume of the sphere is $\text{1437}\text{.33 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$.

The volume of the sphere $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V =}\left[ \text{ }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{0}\text{.63} \right)}^{\text{3}}} \right]\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 1}\text{.0478 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

Therefore, the volume of the sphere is $\text{1}\text{.0478 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$.

2. $\left[ \text{Assume }\pi\text{ =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$ Find the amount of water displaced by a solid spherical ball of diameter

(i) $\text{28 cm}$

Ans: It is given the diameter of ball $\text{= 28 cm}$

So, the radius of ball $\text{r = }\dfrac{\text{28}}{\text{2}}\text{ = 14 cm}$

The volume of the ball $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V =}\left[ \text{ }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{14} \right)}^{\text{3}}} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 11498 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

Therefore, volume of the sphere is $\text{11498 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$.

(ii) $\text{0}\text{.21 m}$ $\left[ \text{Assume  }\pi\text{  =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

So, the radius of ball $\text{r = }\dfrac{\text{0}\text{.21}}{\text{2}}\text{ = 0}\text{.105 m}$

The volume of the sphere $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V =}\left[ \text{ }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{0}\text{.105} \right)}^{\text{3}}} \right]\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 0}\text{.004851 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

Therefore, the volume of the sphere is $\text{0}\text{.004851 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$.

3. The diameter of a metallic ball is $\text{4}\text{.2 cm}$. What is the mass of the ball, if the density of the metal is $\text{8}\text{.9 g per c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$? $\left[ \text{Assume  }\pi\text{  =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: It is given the diameter of metallic ball $\text{= 4}\text{.2 cm}$

So, the radius of ball $\text{r = }\dfrac{\text{4}\text{.2}}{\text{2}}\text{ = 2}\text{.1 cm}$

The volume of the sphere $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V =}\left[ \text{ }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{2}\text{.1} \right)}^{\text{3}}} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 38}\text{.808 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

We know that $\text{Density = }\dfrac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{Mass = Density  }\times\text{  Volume}$

$\Rightarrow \text{Mass = }\left( \text{8}\text{.9  }\times\text{  38}\text{.808} \right)\text{ g}$

$\Rightarrow \text{Mass = 345}\text{.39 g}$

Therefore, the mass of the metallic ball is $\text{345}\text{.39 g}$.

4. The diameter of the moon is approximately one-fourth of the diameter of the earth. What fraction of the volume of the earth is the volume of the moon?

Ans: Let us assume the diameter of earth be $\text{d}$.

So, the radius of earth will be $\text{R = }\dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{2}}$.

From the question, we can write the diameter of the moon as $\dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{4}}$.

So, the radius of moon will be $\text{r = }\dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{8}}$.

The volume of earth $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{R}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\left( \dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{2}} \right)}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{8}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{d}}^{\text{3}}}$

The volume of moon $\text{{V}' = }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{{V}' = }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\left( \dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{8}} \right)}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{{V}' = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{512}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{d}}^{\text{3}}}$

The ratio of volume of moon and that of earth $\text{= }\dfrac{\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{512}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{d}}^{\text{3}}}}{\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{8}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{d}}^{\text{3}}}}\text{ = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{64}}$

So, $\dfrac{\text{Volume of moon}}{\text{Volume of earth}}\text{=}\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{64}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{Volume of moon = }\left( \dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{64}} \right)\text{ Volume of earth}$

Therefore, the volume of moon is $\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{64}}$ times the volume of earth.

5. How many litres of milk can a hemispherical bowl of diameter $\text{10}\text{.5 cm}$ can hold? $\left[ \text{Assume  }\pi\text{  =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: It is given the diameter of the hemispherical bowl $\text{= 10}\text{.5 cm}$.

So, the radius of the bowl $\text{r = }\dfrac{\text{10}\text{.5}}{\text{2}}\text{ = 5}\text{.25 cm}$.

The volume of the hemispherical bowl $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{2}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V =}\left[ \text{ }\dfrac{\text{2}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{5}\text{.25} \right)}^{\text{3}}} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 303}\text{.1875 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

We know that $\text{1000 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ = 1 litre}$

So, the capacity of the bowl $\text{= }\dfrac{\text{303}\text{.1875}}{\text{1000}}\text{ = 0}\text{.303 litre}$

Therefore, the volume of the hemispherical bowl is $\text{0}\text{.303 litre}$.

6. A hemispherical tank is made up of an iron sheet $\text{1 cm}$thick. If the inner radius is $\text{1 m}$, then find the volume of the iron used to make the tank. $\left[ \text{Assume  }\pi\text{  =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: The inner radius of hemispherical tank $\text{r = 1 m}$

The thickness of iron sheet $\text{= 1 cm = 0}\text{.01 m}$.

So, the outer radius of the hemispherical tank $\text{R = }\left( \text{1 + 0}\text{.01} \right)\text{ = 1}\text{.01 m}$

The volume of iron sheet required to make the tank $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{2}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }\left( {{\text{R}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ - }{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}} \right)$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\dfrac{\text{2}}{\text{3}}\times \dfrac{22}{7}\times \left( {{\left( 1.01 \right)}^{\text{3}}}\text{ - }{{\left( 1 \right)}^{\text{3}}} \right)\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\dfrac{\text{44}}{\text{21}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\left( \text{1}\text{.030301 - 1} \right)\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 0}\text{.06348 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

Therefore, the volume of iron sheet required to make the hemispherical tank is $\text{0}\text{.06348 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$.

7. Find the volume of a sphere whose surface area is $\text{154 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$. $\left[ \text{Assume  }\pi\text{  =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: Let us assume the radius of the sphere be $\text{r}$.

It is given the surface area of the sphere $\text{= 154 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$.

$\therefore \text{4 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 154 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow {{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = }\left( \dfrac{\text{154  }\times\text{  7}}{\text{4  }\times\text{  22}} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow {{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = }\left( \dfrac{\text{49}}{\text{4}} \right)\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{r = }\left( \dfrac{\text{7}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{ cm}$

The volume of the sphere $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left[ \dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\text{ }\times\text{ }\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\text{ }\times\text{ }\text{  }{{\left( \dfrac{\text{7}}{\text{2}} \right)}^{\text{3}}} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left[ \dfrac{\text{49  }\text{ }\times\text{ }\text{  11}}{\text{3}} \right]\text{ c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 179}\text{.67 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

Therefore, the volume of the sphere is $\text{179}\text{.67 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$.

8. A dome of a building is in the form of a hemisphere. From inside, it was whitewashed at the cost of $\text{Rs}\text{. 498}\text{.96}$. If the cost of white-washing is $\text{Rs}\text{. 2}\text{.00}$per square meter, find the

(i) Inside surface area of the dome,

Ans: It is given that it costs $\text{Rs}\text{. 2}\text{.00}$ to whitewash an area $\text{= 1 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

So, it costs $\text{Rs}\text{. 498}\text{.96}$ to whitewash an area $\text{= }\dfrac{\text{498}\text{.96}}{\text{2}}\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 249}\text{.48 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$.

Therefore, the inner surface area of the dome is $\text{249}\text{.48 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$.

(ii) Volume of the air inside the dome. $\left[ \text{Assume  }\pi\text{  =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: Let us assume the radius of the hemispherical dome be $\text{r}$.

We obtained the curved surface area of the inner dome $\text{= 249}\text{.48 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\therefore \text{2}{{\text{ }\pi\text{ }}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 249}\text{.48 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{2  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 249}\text{.48 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow {{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = }\left( \dfrac{\text{249}\text{.48  }\times\text{  7}}{\text{2  }\times\text{  22}} \right)\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow {{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}\text{ = 39}\text{.69 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{r = 6}\text{.3 m}$

Volume of hemispherical dome $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{2}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left[ \dfrac{\text{2}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{6}\text{.3} \right)}^{\text{3}}} \right]\text{ }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 523}\text{.908 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 523}\text{.9  }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}\left( \text{approximately} \right)$

Therefore, the volume of air inside the hemispherical dome is $\text{523}\text{.9 }{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$.

9. Twenty-seven solid iron spheres, each of radius $\text{r}$ and surface area $\text{S}$ are melted to form a sphere with surface area $\text{{S}'}$. Find the 

(i) radius $\text{{r}'}$ of the new sphere, 

Ans: It is given the radius of one iron sphere $\text{= r}$.

The volume of one iron sphere $\text{= }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}$

So, the volume of $\text{27}$ iron spheres $\text{= 27  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}$

These spheres are melted to form one big sphere.

Let us assume the radius of this new sphere be $\text{{r}'}$.

The volume of new iron sphere $\text{= }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\pi\text{ }{{\text{{r}'}}^{\text{3}}}$

We can now equate the volumes.

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\pi\text{ }{{\text{{r}'}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ = 27  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow {{\text{{r}'}}^{\text{3}}}\text{ = 27}{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{{r}' = 3r}$

Therefore, the radius of the new sphere is $\text{3r}$.

(ii) ratio of $\text{S}$ and $\text{{S}'}$. 

Ans: The surface area of an iron sphere of $\text{r}$is $\text{S = 4 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}$.

The surface area of an iron sphere of $\text{{r}'}$is $\text{{S}' = 4 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{{r}'}}^{\text{2}}}$.

$\Rightarrow \text{{S}' = 4 }\pi\text{ }{{\left( \text{3r} \right)}^{\text{2}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{{S}' = 36 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}$

The ratio of $\dfrac{\text{S}}{{\text{{S}'}}}\text{ = }\dfrac{\text{4 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}}{\text{36 }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}}\text{ = }\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{9}}\text{ = 1 : 9}$

Therefore, the required ratio is $\text{1 : 9}$.

10. A capsule of medicine is in the shape of a sphere of diameter $\text{3}\text{.5 mm}$. How much medicine $\left( \text{in m}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}} \right)$ is needed to fill this capsule? $\left[ \text{Assume  }\pi\text{  =}\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}} \right]$

Ans: It is given that the diameter of the capsule $\text{= 3}\text{.5 mm}$.

So, the radius will be $\text{r = }\left( \dfrac{\text{3}\text{.5}}{\text{2}} \right)\text{ = 1}\text{.75 mm}$.

Volume of spherical capsule $\text{V = }\dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{ }\pi\text{ }{{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = }\left[ \dfrac{\text{4}}{\text{3}}\text{  }\times\text{  }\dfrac{\text{22}}{\text{7}}\text{  }\times\text{  }{{\left( \text{1}\text{.75} \right)}^{\text{3}}} \right]\text{ m}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 22}\text{.458 m}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow \text{V = 22}\text{.46 m}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}\left( \text{approx} \right)$

Hence, the amount of medicine required to fill the capsule is $\text{22}\text{.46 m}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$.
