Question 1
A cuboid block of wood 6 × 12 × 6 is horizontally placed on a table. Then another cube of side 6 is placed on this block. How much surface area is exposed to air?
432 sq. units.
434 sq. units.
430 sq. units.
436 sq. units.
Ans: a
Let the dimensions of the cuboid be L, 2L and L. Its total surface area is 2(L × 2L + 2L × L + L × L) = 10L2. When it is placed on the table, the bottom face is hidden, so net visible area is 10L2 - 2L2 = 8L2. When the cubical block of side L is placed on this block its(i.e., cube's) own L2 and L2 of the cuboidal block is hidden. So it hides 2L2. Thus, the net visible is 8L2 + 6L2 - 2L2 = 12L2 = 12 × 62 = 432 sq. units.
Question 2
What is the volume of a right cone whose cross-section is an isosceles triangle with base 16 cm and slant height 10 cm?
128 π sq. cm.
129 π sq. cm.
127 π sq. cm.
$43{2/3}$ π sq. cm.
Ans: a
One of the right triangles of the isosceles triangle has its base = 16/2 = 8. By Pythagorean theorem, the height = $√{10^2 - 8^2}$ = $√{100 - 64}$ = 6. The radius of the base of the cone r = 8 cm, and height h = 6 cm. The volume is $1/3$π$(r^2 × h)$ = $1/3$π$(8^2 × 6)$ = 128π.
Question 3
The areas of three adjacent faces of a cube are 3, 4 and 12. It's volume is?
Question 4
How many boxes measuring 1 m × 1m × 1 m should be dropped into a water tank 2 m × 4 m so that the water level rises by 1 m?
Question 5
What is the surface area of the cuboid obtained by joining two equal cubes of 343 cu. cm volume each?
490 sq. cm.
492 sq. cm.
488 sq. cm.
494 sq. cm.
Ans: a
Let the side of a cube be L. Then L3 = 343, which gives L = 7. The resulting cuboid has L = L, H = L, and B = 2L. The surface area is 2 × (LB + BH + HL) = 2 × (2L2 + 2L2 + L2) = 10 × L2 = 10 × 72 = 490 sq. cm.
