Question 82 Marks
A cylindeical tub of radius 12cm contains water to a depth of 20cm. A sphrical iron ball is dropped into the tub and thus the leval of water is raised by 6.75cm. What is the radius of the ball.
Answer
Suppose that the radius of the ball is r cm.
Radius of the cylindrical tub = 12cm
Depth of the tub = 20cm
Now, volume of the ball = volume of water raised in the cylinder
$\Rightarrow\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3=\pi\times12^2\times6.75$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}^3=\frac{144\times6.75\times3}{4}$
$=36\times6.5\times3=729$
$\Rightarrow\text{r}=9\text{cm}$
$\therefore$ The radius of the ball is 9cm.

Question 92 Marks
Two cones have their heights in the ratio 1 : 3 and the radii of their bases in the ratio 3 : 1. Show that their volumes are in the ratio 3 : 1.
Answer
Let their heights be h and 3h
And, their radii be 3r and r.
Then, $\text{V}_1=\frac{1}{3} \pi(3\text{r})^2\times\text{h}$
And, $\text{V}_2=\frac{1}{3} \pi\text{r}^2\times3\text{h}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{V}_1}{\text{V}_2}=\frac{\frac{1}{3}\pi(3\text{r})^2\times\text{h}}{\frac{1}{3}\pi\text{r}^2\times3\text{h}}=\frac{3}{1}$
$\therefore\text{V}_1:\text{V}_2=3:1$

Question 102 Marks
The surface areas of two spheres are in the 1 : 4. Find the ratio of their volumes.
Answer
Suppose that the radii of the spheres are r and R.
We have:
$\frac{4\pi\text{r}^2}{4\pi\text{R}^2}=\frac{1}{4}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{r}}{\text{R}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}}=\frac{1}{2}$
Now, ratio of the volumes $=\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{r}^3}{\frac{4}{3}\pi\text{R}^3}=\Big(\frac{\text{r}}{\text{R}}\Big)^3$
$=\Big(\frac{1}{2}\Big)^3=\frac{1}{8}$
$\therefore$ The ratio of the volumes of the sphere is 1 : 8.

Question 132 Marks
A patient in a hospital is given soup in a cylindrical bowl of diameter $7\ cm.$ If the bowl is filled with soup to a height of $4\ cm,$ how much soup the hospital has to prepare daily to serve $250$ patients?
Answer
Radius $(r)$ of cylindrical bowl $=\Big(\frac{7}{2}\Big)\ cm=3.5\ cm$
Height $(h)$ up to which the bowl is filled with soup $= 4\ cm$
Volume of soup in $1$ bowl $= pr^2h$
$=\Big(\frac{22}{7}\times(3.5)^2\times4\Big)\ cm^3$
$=154\ cm^3$
Hence, volume of soup in $250$ bowls $= (250 \times 154)cm^3 = 38500\ cm^3 = 38.5$ litres
Thus, the hospital will have to prepare $38.5$ litres of soup daily to serve $250$ patients.

Question 172 Marks
A right circular cone is 3.6cm high and the radius of its base is 1.6cm. It is melted and recast into a right circular cone having base radius 1.2cm. Find its height.
Answer
Here, height of cone = 3.6cm and radius = 1.6cm
After melting, its radius = 1.2cm
Volume of original cone = Volume of cone after melting
$\therefore\frac{1}{3}\pi\times1.6\times1.6\times3.6$
$=\frac{1}{3}\pi\times1.2\times1.2\times\text{h}$
$\Rightarrow\text{h}=\frac{\frac{1}{3}\pi\times1.6\times1.6\times3.6}{\frac{1}{3}\pi\times1.2\times1.2}=6.4\text{cm}$
$\therefore$ height of new cone = 6.4cm.
