Surface area and volume solved problem for class IX

Q. The external and internal diameters of a hollow hemi-spherical vessel are 16cm and 12cm respectively the cost of painting 1 sq. cm of surface is Rs.2 .find the cost of painting the vessel?
Given, R = 16 cm and r = 12 cm
Area of outer surface = 2πR 2
Area of inner surface = 2πr 2
Area of the ring at the top = πR – πr 2
Total area to be painted = (2πR + 2πr )+ (πR – πr 2) = π(3R r 2)
= 22/7 x(3 x 16 x 16 + 12 x 12)=2866.29 sq. cm
Cost of painting = Rs (2 × 2866.29) = Rs 5732.57
Q. If a cone I cut into two parts by a horizontal plane passing through the mind – point if its axis. Find the ratio of the volumes of the upper part and the cone.

Let the height and radius of the given cone be H and R respectively.
The cone is divided into two parts by drawing a plane through the mid points of its axis and parallel to the base. One part is a smaller cone and the other part is a frustum of cone.
Þ OC = CA = H/2
Let the radius of smaller cone be r cm.
In ΔOCD and ΔOAB,
OCD = OAB = 90°
COD = AOB (common)
ΔOCD ΔOAB (AA similarity criterion)
ÞOA/OC =AB/CD=OB/OD Þ H/H/2 =R/r Þ  R=2r
Now, Volume of smaller cone / Volume of cone  =( 1/3 X p CD2 X OC) / (1/3 X p AB2 X OA )
  = (1/3 X p r2 X H/2) ¸  (1/3 X p R2 X H ) Þ (1/3 X p r2 X H/2) ¸  {1/3 X p (2r)2 X H }
=1/6 ¸4/3 =1:8    Ratio of volume of upper part to the cone is 1:8.

Q. A solid cylinder is melted and cast into a cone of same radius .Find  the ratio of their  heights ?
Let the height of the cylinder = h1
Let the height of the cone = h2
Volume of the cylinder (V1) = πr2h1
Volume of the cone formed (V2)= (1/3) πr2h2
Since cone is formed from the cylinder, hence the volume is same.
Therefore,
(V1) = (V2)
πr2h1 = (1/3) πr2h2
3 h1 = h2
h1/ h2 = 1/3
h/ h1 = 3/1
Therefore, height of the cone and cylinder are in the ratio of 3 : 1.

CBSE 8th Mensuration Solved Questions


11. A flooring tile has a shape of a parallelogram whose base is 28cm and the corresponding height is 20cm . how many such tiles are required to cover a floor of a area 2800cm2
Solution: Area of each parallelogram tile
= Base of the parallelogram × corresponding height of the parallelogram
= 28 cm × 20 cm= 560 cm2
Area of the floor = 28 m2 = 2800 × (100 cm)2 = 2800 × 10000 cm2
Number of tiles × Area of each parallelogram tile = Area of the floor
Number of tiles = Area of the floor/ Area of each parallelogram tile
                            = 2800 × 10000 cm2  /560 cm2   = 50000 tiles
12. The rainfall recorded on a certain day was  5cm. Find the volume of water that fell on 2 hectare field.
Solution: The volume of water= Area of ground x h= 2 hectare x 5cm = 2x10000m2 x 5/100m=1000m3 = 1000x1000Lit=1000000Lit.{1m3=1000L}

13. Rain water which falls on a flat rectangular surface of length 6 m and breadth 4 m is transferred into a cylindrical vessel of internal radius 20 cm. What will be the height of water in the cylindrical vessel if the rain fall is 1 cm  (Take π = 3.14)
Solution : Let the height of the water level in the cylindrical vessel be h cm
Volume of the rain water = 600 × 400 × 1 cm3
Volume of water in the cylindrical vessel = π (20)2 × h cm3
A/Q,   600 × 400 × 1 = π (20)2 ×  or h =600/3.14 cm = 191 cm
14. The areas of three adjacent faces of a cuboid are 180 cm sq., 96 cm sq. and 120cm sq. what the volume of cuboid is. Please give me the answer
Solution:  lx b = 180       b x h = 96        h x l =120
l x b x b x h x h x  l = 180 x 96 x 120
(lbh)2= 180 x 96 x120
l b h = √(180 x 96 x120 ) =2073600
Volume   = √2073600   = 1440 cm3
15.  If a solid cylinder has a total surface area 462 sq. cm. & CSA  is 1/3rd of it so what is the volume of the cylinder?
Solution : Let the radius and height of the cylinder be r cm and h cm respectively.
Given, Total surface area of the cylinder = 462 cm2
 2p r (r + h) = 462 cm2       .. .(1)
Lateral surface area of cylinder =  1/3 × Total surface area of cylinder (Given)
 2prh =1/3 × 462 = 154 cm2 ... (2)
From (1) and (2), we have
{2pr(r+h}/{2pr} = 462 cm2       / 154 cm2
(r+h) / h = 3
r = 3h-h=2h
r = 2h
From (2), we have
2prh =154 cm2
(2 x22rxr) /(7x2)}
r = 7cm
h = r/2=7/2=3.5cm
 Volume of the cylinder  = pr2h =22x7x7/3.5=539 cm2

8th Compound Interest Solved problems

Ex.1. Find compound interest on Rs. 7500 at 4% per annum for 2 years, compounded annually.

  Sol.  Amount = Rs [7500*(1+(4/100)2] = Rs (7500 * (26/25) * (26/25)) = Rs. 8112.            

            
Therefore, C.I. = Rs. (8112 - 7500) = Rs. 612.

Ex. 2. Find compound interest on Rs. 8000 at 15% per annum for 2 years 4 months, compounded annually.

   Sol.         Time =  years   months = 2(4/12) years = 2(1/3) years.

                    Amount = Rs'. [8000 X (1+­(15/100))2 X (1+((1/3)*15)/100)]

                         =Rs. [8000 * (23/20) * (23/20) * (21/20)]     = Rs. 11109.                             .

                   :. C.I. = Rs. (11109 - 8000) = Rs. 3109.

    Ex. 3. Find the compound interest on Rs. 10,000 in 2 years at 4% per annum, the
