Question 3.
A spherical shell of lead, whose external diameter is 18 cm, is melted and recast into a right circular cylinder, whose height is 8 cm and diameter 12 cm. Determine the internal diameter of the shell.
Solution:
Diameter of the cylinder = 12 cm
∴  Radius (r1) = $$(\frac { 12 }{ 2 } )$$ = 6 cm
Height (h) = 8 cm
∴ Volume = πr1²h = π(6)² x 8 cm³
= π x 36 x 8 = 288π cm³
Now volume of metal used in spherical shell = 288π cm
External diameter = 18 cm 18
∴  External radius (R) = $$(\frac { 18 }{ 2 } )$$ = 9 cm
Let r be the internal radius, then
Volume of the metal = $$(\frac { 4 }{ 3 } )$$ π (R³ – r³ )

Question 6.
The inner and outer radii of a hollow cylinder are 15 cm and 20 cm, respectively. The cylinder is melted and recast into a solid cylinder of the same height. Find the radius of the base of new cylinder.
Solution:
Inner radius of hollow cylinder (r) = 15 cm
Outer radius (R) = 20 cm
Let h be the height of the hollow cylinder,
Then volume of metal used = πR (R² – r²)
= πh (20²- 15²) cm³
=  πh (400 – 225) cm³
= 175 πh cm³
Volume of the new cylinder = 175nh cm³
Height = h
Let R be the radius of new cylinder,
then πR²h = 175 πh
⇒ R²= 175
⇒ R = $$\sqrt { 175 }$$
= 13.2

Solution:
Diameter of cylindrical bucket = 28 cm
∴ Radius (r) = $$(\frac { 28 }{ 2 } )$$ = 14 cm
Height (h) = 72 cm
∴ Volume of water filled in it = πr²h
= $$(\frac { 22 }{ 7 } )$$ x 14 x 14 x 72 cm³ = 44352 cm³
∴ Volume of water in rectangular tank = 44352 cm³
Length of tank (l) = 66 cm
and breadth (b) = 28 cm
Let h1 be its height
∴  Ibh1 = 44352
⇒  66 x 28 h1= 44352

Marbles of diameter 1.4 cm are dropped into a cylindrical beaker of diameter 7 cm containing some water. Find the number of marbles that should be dropped into the beaker so that the water level rises by 5.6 cm. [NCERT Exemplar]
Solution:

Question 73.
Two cones with same base radius 8 cm and height 15 cm are joined together along their bases. Find the surface area of the shape formed. [NCERT Exemplar]
Solution:
If two cones with same base and height are joined together along their bases, then the shape so formed is look like as figure shown.

Question 74.
From a solid cube of side 7 cm, a conical cavity of height 7 cm and radius 3 cm is hollowed out. Find the volume of the remaining solid. [NCERT Exemplar]
Solution:
Given that, side of a solid cube (a) = 1 cm
Height of conical cavity i.e., cone, h = 7 cm

Since, the height of conical cavity and the side of cube is equal that means the conical cavity fit vertically in the cube.
Radius of conical cavity i. e., cone, r = 3 cm
⇒ Diameter = 2 x r = 2 x 3 = 6 cm
Since, the diameter is less than the side of a cube that means the base of a conical cavity is not fit inhorizontal face of cube.
Now, volume of cube = (side)³ = a³ = (7)³ = 34³ cm³
and volume of conical cavity i.e., cone

Question 75.
Two solid cones A and B are placed in a cylindrical tube as shown in the figure. The ratio of their capacitites are 2 : 1. Find the heights and capacities of the cones. Also, find the volume of the remaining portion of the cylinder. [NCERT Exemplar]

Solution:

Question 76.
An icecream cone full of icecream having radius 5 cm and height 10 cm as shown’in the figure. Calculate the volume of icecream, provided that its 1/6 parts is left unfilled with icecream.
