## Gujarat Board Textbook Solutions Class 10 Maths Chapter 13 Surface Areas and Volumes Ex 13.3

Question 1.
A metallic sphere of radius 4.2 cm is melted and recast into the shape of a cylinder of radius 6 cm. Find the height of the cylinder.
Solution:
In case of sphere, r = 4.2 cm
Volume of sphere = $$\frac {4}{3}$$πr3 = $$\frac {4}{3}$$π(4.2)3
In case of cylinder, r = 6 cm and h = ?
Volume of cylinder = πr3h = π x 63 x h
Volume of cylinder = Volume of sphere
⇒ π x 62 x h = $$\frac {4}{3}$$π (4.2)3
h = $$\frac{4 \times 4.2 \times 4.2 \times 4.2}{3 \times 6 \times 6}$$
h = 4 x 1.4 x 0.7 x 0.7
h = 2.74 cm

Question 2.
Metallic spheres of radii 6 cm, 8 cm and 10 cm, respectively, are melted to form a single solid sphere. Find the radius of the resulting sphere.
Solution:
r1 = 6 cm
r2 = 8 cm
and r3 = 10 cm
Let radius of resulting sphere be r.
Volume of three spheres = Volume of resulting sphere
$$\frac {4}{3}$$πr31 + $$\frac {4}{3}$$πr32 + $$\frac {4}{3}$$πr33 = $$\frac {4}{3}$$πr3
$$\frac {4}{3}$$π [r31 + r32 + r33] = $$\frac {4}{3}$$πr3
⇒ r31 + r32 + r33 = r3
63 + 83 + 103 = r3
r3 = 216 + 512 + 1000
r3 = 1728
r = $$\sqrt[3]{1728}$$
r = 12 cm

Question 3.
A 20 m deep well with diameter 7 m is dug and the earth from digging is evenly spread out to form a platform 22 m by 14 m. Find the height of the platform. [NCERT 20121]
Solution:
In case of cylindrical well
Diameter = 7 m
r = $$\frac {7}{2}$$m
Depth of well h = 20 m
Volume of well or earth dug out = πr2h
= $$\frac {22}{7}$$ x $$\frac {7}{2}$$ x $$\frac {7}{2}$$ x 20 = 11 x 7 x 10 = 770 m3
In case of cuboidal platform
l = 22 m
b = 14 m
Let height of platform be h m.
Then volume of earth spread out in the form of cuboidal plate form = Volume of earth dug out from the well
l x b x h = 770
22 x 14 x h = 770
h = $$\frac{770}{22 \times 14}$$ = $$\frac{70}{2 \times 14}$$
h = 2.5 m

Question 4.
A well of diameter 3 m is dug 14 m deep. The earth taken out of it has been spread evenly all around it in the shape of a circular ring of width 4 m to form an embankment. Find the height of the embankment. [CBSE 20121
Solution:
In case of cylindrical well
Diameter = 3 m
Radius r1 = $$\frac {3}{2}$$m
Depth h = 14m
Volume of earth dug out from well
= πr21h
= π ($$\frac {3}{2}$$)2 x 14
In case of circular embankment
= r + 4
= $$\frac {3}{2}$$ + 4 = $$\frac {11}{2}$$ m
Let height of embankment be H.
Volume of embankment = Volume of earth dug out
πR2H – πr2H = πr21h
π(R2 – r2)H = π($$\frac {3}{2}$$)2 x 14

H = $$\frac {9}{8}$$
H = 1.125 m
Hence, the height of the embankment is 1.125 m.

Question 5.
A container shaped like a right circular cylinder having a diameter 12 cm and a height 15 cm is full of ice cream. The ice cream is to be filled into cones of height 12 cm and diameter 6 cm, having a hemispherical shape on the top. Find the number of such cones which can be filled with ice cream.
Solution:
In case of right circular cylinder, diameter = 12 cm
r1 = 6 cm
h1 = 15 cm
Volume of ice cream in right circular cylinder
= πr12h1
= π x 62 x 15
In case of cone
Diameter = 6 cm
Height h2 = 12 cm
Volume of cone = $$\frac {1}{3}$$ πr22h2
= $$\frac {1}{3}$$ π x 32 x 12 = 36π cm3
Volume of hemisphere = $$\frac {2}{3}$$ πr3
= $$\frac {2}{3}$$π(3)3 = 187πcm3
Number of cones filled with ice cream

Question 6.
How many silver coins, 1.75 cm in diameter and of thickness 2 mm, must be melted to form a cuboid of dimensions 5.5 cm x 10 cm x 3.5 cm?
Solution:
Silver coins
Diameter = 1.75 cm
Radius r1 = $$\frac {1.75}{2}$$ cm = $$\frac {1.75}{200}$$ = $$\frac {7}{8}$$cm
Thickness of coin h1 = 2 mm = $$\frac {2}{10}$$cm = $$\frac {1}{5}$$cm
Volume of a coin = πr21h1
= π x ($$\frac {7}{8}$$)2 x $$\frac {1}{5}$$
= $$\frac {22}{7}$$ x $$\frac {49}{64}$$ x $$\frac {1}{5}$$
= $$\frac{11 \times 7}{32 \times 5}$$ cm2
In case of cuboid
Length (l) = 5.5 cm
Height (h) = 3.5 cm
Volume of cuboid = l x b x h
= 5.5 x 10 x 3.5 cm3
= 192.5 cm3

Hence, 400 silver coins must be method.

Question 7.
A cylindrical bucket, 32 cm high and with radius of base 18 cm, is filled with sand. This bucket is emptied on the ground and a conical help of sand is formed. If the height of the conical heap is 24 cm, find the radius and slant height of the heap.
Solution:
In case of cylindrical bucket
Radius (r) of bucket = 18 cm
Height h = 32 cm
Volume of sand filled in cylindrical bucket
= πr2h
= π x 182 x 32
= 10368 π cm3
In case of conical heap
Height (H) = 24 cm
Volume of conical heap = Volume of cylindrical bucket
$$\frac {1}{3}$$πR2H = 10368π
$$\frac {1}{3}$$ x R2 x 24 = 10368
R2 = $$\frac{10368 \times 3}{24}$$ = 1296
R = $$\sqrt{1296}$$
R = 36 cm
Hence radius of conical heap of sand = 36 cm
I = $$\sqrt{\mathrm{R}^{2}+\mathrm{H}^{2}}$$ = $$\sqrt{36^{2}+24^{2}}$$
= $$\sqrt{1296+576}$$ = $$\sqrt{1872}$$ = 12 $$\sqrt{13}$$
Hence, slant height of sand = 12$$\sqrt{13}$$ cm.

Question 8.
Water in a canal, 6 m wide and 1.5 m deep, is flowing with a speed of 10 km/h. How much area will it irrigate in 30 minutes, if 8 cm of standing water is needed?
Solution:
In case of canal
Width of canal (b) = 6 m
Depth of canal (h) = 1.5 m
Speed of flow of water = 10 km/h
= $$\frac{10 \times 1000 \mathrm{m}}{60 \mathrm{min}}$$ = $$\frac{500}{3}$$ m / minute
speed of water in 30 minute
= $$\frac{500}{3}$$ x 30 = 5000 m
Volume of water flowed in 30 minutes
= l x b x h
= 6 x $$\frac{3}{2}$$ x 5000 = 45000 m2
Volume of water stand in a field to irrigate = Volume of water flowed in 30 minutes
⇒ Area of field x $$\frac{8}{100}$$ = 45000
( ∴ height = 8 cm = $$\frac{8}{100}$$ m)
Area of field = $$\frac{45000 x 100}{8}$$ = 562500
1 hectare = 10000 m2
Area of field irrigate = $$\frac{562500}{10000}$$ = 56.25 hectares

Question 9.
A farmer connects a pipe of internal diameter 20 cm from a canal into a cylindrical tank in her field, which is 10 m in diameter and 2 m deep. If water flows through the pipe at the rate of 3 km/h, in how much time will the tank be filled?
Solution:
Diameter in case of cylindrical pipe = 20 cm
Radius (r) = 10 cm = $$\frac{10}{100}$$ m = 0.1 m
Speed of flow of water in pipe = 3 km / h
= $$\frac{3 \times 1000}{60 \times 60}$$ = $$\frac{5}{6}$$ m / s
Volume of water flowed per second
= πr2h = π(0.1)2 x $$\frac{5}{6}$$
In case of tank
Diameter = 10 m
R = 5m
Depth H = 2m
Volume of tank = πr2h
= π x 52 x 2 = 50π
Time taken to fill the tank

= $$\frac{50 \pi}{\pi \times 0.1 \times 0.1 \times \frac{5}{6}}$$
= $$\frac{5000 \times 6}{1 \times 1 \times 5}$$
= $$\frac{6000}{60}$$ minutes = 100 minutes
= $$\frac{100}{60}$$ hour = 1 hour 40 minutes
