- Question
- A metal sheet 27 cm long, 8 cm broad and 1 cm thick is melted into a cube. The difference between the surface area of two solids is?
Options- A. 284 cm2
- B. 286 cm2
- C. 296 cm2
- D. 300 cm2
- Correct Answer
- 286 cm2
ExplanationVolume of cube formed = 216 cm3
? Edge of the cube = (6 x 6 x 6)1/3 = 6 cm
Surface area of original metal sheet = 2(27 x 8 + 8 x 1 + 27 x 1) cm2 = 502 cm2
Surface area of the cube formed = [6 x (6)2] cm2 = 216 cm2
? Required difference in area of two solids = (502 - 216) cm2
= 286 cm2 - 1. Bricks are worth Rs. 750 per 1000 and their length, breadth and height 25 cm, 12.5 cm and 7.5 cm respectively. The cost of bricks required to build a wall 200 m long, 1.8 m high and 37.5 cm thick is?

Correct Answer: Rs. 43, 200
Explanation:
Number of bricks required = Volume of wall in cm3 / Volume of 1 brick
= (200 x 100 x 1.8 x 100 x 37.5)/(25 x 12.5 x 7.5)
= 57, 600
? Required cost = Rs. (750 x 57600)/1000
= Rs. 43, 200
Correct Answer: 4500 m3
Explanation:
Speed per min = (3 x 1000)/60 m = 50 m
Volume of water running per min. = (45 x 2 x 50) m2
= 4500 m3
Correct Answer: 2 ?26 cm
Explanation:
Length of pencil = ? [(8)2 + (6)2 + (2)2] cm
= ?104 cm
= 2?26
Correct Answer: 2744 cm3
Explanation:
? ?3 a = 14 x ?3
? a = 14
? Volume of the cube = (14 x 14 x 14)cm3
= 2744 cm3
Correct Answer: 10 m
Explanation:
? l2 + b2 = (10)2 = 100
And l2 + b2 + h2 = (10?300)2 = 200
? h2 = (200 - 100) = 100
? h = 10 m
Correct Answer: 9 times
Explanation:
Let original radius = r and original length = h
New radius = r/3
Let new length = H
Then, ? r2h = ? (r/3)2 x H = ? r2H/9
? H = 9h
Thus, the length becomes 9 times .
Correct Answer: 40 cm
Explanation:
Let breadth = L meters. Then, height = 5L meters and length = 40L meters
? L x 5L x 40L = 12.8
? L3 = 12.8/200 = 128/2000 = 64/1000
? L = 4/10
Thus, breadth = (4/10) m = (4 x 100)/10 cm = 40 cm
Correct Answer: 5544 sq. cm
Explanation:
? 4/3 x 22/7 x r3 = 38808
? r3 = (38808 x 7/22 x 3/4)
= (21)3
? r = 21 cm
So, curved surface area of sphere
= 4?r2
= (4 x 22/7 x 21x21) cm2
= 5544 cm2
Correct Answer: 3
Explanation:
Let N cones be needed
Then, 1/3 ?r2 h x N = ?r2h
? N = 3
Correct Answer: 1 : 3
Explanation:
Let the height of cylinder = h
and height cone = H
Then, ?r2 h = 1/3 ?r2 H
? h/H = 1/3 = 1 : 3
