### Some Formulas to Learn before Solving Exercise 13.2

Surface Area and Volume of Hemisphere:

A hemisphere is a three-dimensional geometric shape that is half of a sphere, with one side flat and the other round. It is made by cutting a sphere at the exact centre along its diameter, resulting in two equal hemispheres. The base or face of the hemisphere is the flat side of the hemisphere.

Surface Area and Volume of Hemisphere

• The volume of Hemisphere = (2πr3)/3

• Surface Area of Hemisphere = 3πr2

• Curved Surface Area of a Hemisphere = 2πr2

Surface Area and Volume of Right Circular Cone

A right circular cone is a cone with an axis perpendicular to the base plane. The base of a right circular cone is circular in shape.

The Formulas of Right Circular Cone are as follows:

• Curved surface area of a cone = πr√(r2 + h2)

• Volume of a Cone (V) = (1/3) × πr2 × h

• Total surface area of a cone = πr2 + πr√(r2 + h2)

Surface Area and Volume of Cylinder

A cylinder is a three-dimensional solid figure with two identical circular bases connected by a curved surface at a specified distance from the centre, which is the cylinder's height.

The Formulas for Cylinder are as Follows:

• Curved surface area of cylinder = 2πrh

• Total surface area of cylinder = 2πr(r+h)

• The volume of a cylinder, V = πr2h

Exercise – 13.2

1. A solid is in the shape of a cone standing on a hemisphere with both their radii being equal to 1 cm and the height of the cone is equal to its radius. Find the volume of the solid in terms of π.

(Image will be uploaded soon)

Ans. From the given figure, we know that

Height (h) of conical part = Radius(r) of conical part ${\text{ = 1cm}}$

Radius(r) of hemispherical part = Radius of conical part (r) ${\text{ = 1cm}}$

Volume of solid = Volume of conical part + Volume of hemispherical part

${\text{ = }}\dfrac{1}{3}\pi {r^2}h + \dfrac{2}{3}\pi {r^3}$

${\text{ = }}\dfrac{1}{3}\pi {\left( 1 \right)^2}\left( 1 \right) + \dfrac{2}{3}\pi {\left( 1 \right)^3} = \dfrac{{2\pi }}{3} + \dfrac{1}{3} = \pi {\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^3}$

1. Rachel, an engineering student, was asked to make a model shaped like a cylinder with two cones attached at its two ends by using a thin aluminum sheet. The diameter of the model is ${\text{3cm}}$ and its length is${\text{12cm}}$. If each cone has a height of ${\text{2cm}}$, find the volume of air contained in the model that Rachel made. (Assume the outer and inner dimensions of the model to be nearly the same.)

Ans:

(Image will be uploaded soon)

From the given figure, we know that

Height (h1) of each conical part ${\text{ = 2cm}}$

Height (h2) of cylindrical part ${\text{ = 12 - 2}} \times {\text{ Height of conical part}}$

${\text{ = 12 - 2}} \times {\text{2 = 8cm}}$

Radius (r) of cylindrical part = Radius of conical part ${\text{ = }}\dfrac{3}{2}{\text{cm}}$

Volume of air present in the model = Volume of cylinder $+ {\text{ }}2\, \times$Volume of cones

$= \pi {r^2}{h_2} + 2 \times \dfrac{1}{3}\pi {r^2}{h_1}$

$= \pi \times {\left( {\dfrac{3}{2}} \right)^2} \times 8 + 2 \times \dfrac{1}{3}\pi {\left( {\dfrac{3}{2}} \right)^2} \times 2$

$= \pi \times \dfrac{9}{4} \times 8 + \dfrac{2}{3}\pi \times \dfrac{9}{4} \times 2$

$= 18\pi + 3\pi = 21\pi = 66{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^3}$

1. A gulab jamun, contains sugar syrup up to about 30% of its volume. Find

approximately how much syrup would be found in 45 gulab jamuns, each shaped like a cylinder with two hemispherical ends with length 5 cm and diameter 2.8 cm (see the given figure).

(Image will be uploaded soon)

Ans:

(Image will be uploaded soon)

We can observe that,

Radius (r) of cylindrical part = Radius (r) of hemispherical part

${\text{ = }}\dfrac{{{\text{2}}{\text{.8}}}}{{\text{2}}}{\text{ = 1}}{\text{.4cm}}$

Length of each hemispherical part = Radius of hemispherical part ${\text{ = 1}}{\text{.4cm}}$

Length (h) of cylindrical part ${\text{ = 5 - }}\,{\text{2}} \times {\text{Length of hemispherical part }}$

${\text{ = 5 - }}\,{\text{2}} \times {\text{1.4 = 2}}{\text{.2cm}}$

Volume of one gulab jamun = Vol. of cylindrical part + 2 × Vol. of hemispherical part

$= \pi {r^2}h + 2 \times \dfrac{2}{3}\pi {r^3} = \pi {r^2}h + \dfrac{4}{3}\pi {r^3}$

$= \pi {\left( {1.4} \right)^2}\left( {2.2} \right) + \dfrac{4}{3}\pi {\left( {1.4} \right)^3}$

$= \dfrac{{22}}{7} \times 1.4 \times 1.4 \times 2.2 + \dfrac{4}{3} \times \dfrac{{22}}{7} \times 1.4 \times 1.4 \times 1.4$

${\text{ = 13}}{\text{.552 + 11}}{\text{.498 = 25}}{\text{.05c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

Volume of ${\text{45}}$ gulab jamuns ${\text{ = 45}} \times {\text{25}}{\text{.05 = 1127}}{\text{.25c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

Volume of sugar syrup $= 30\%$  of volume

$= \dfrac{{30}}{{100}} \times 1127.25$

${\text{ = 338}}{\text{.17c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

$\cong {\text{338c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

1. A pen stand made of wood is in the shape of a cuboid with four conical depressions to hold pens. The dimensions of the cuboids are ${\text{15cm}}$  by ${\text{10cm}}$  by ${\text{3}}{\text{.5cm}}$. The radius of each of the depressions is ${\text{0}}{\text{.5cm}}$ and the depth is ${\text{1}}{\text{.4cm}}$. Find the volume of wood in the entire stand (see the following figure).

(Image will be uploaded soon)

Ans:

(Image will be uploaded soon)

Depth (h) of each conical depression${\text{ = 1}}{\text{.4cm}}$

Radius (r) of each conical depression${\text{ = 0}}{\text{.5cm}}$

Volume of wood = Volume of cuboid $- {\text{ }}4 \times$ Volume of cones

${\text{ = l * b * h}}$$- 4 \times \dfrac{1}{3}\pi {r^2}h$

$= 15 \times 10 \times 3.5 - 4 \times \dfrac{1}{3} \times \dfrac{{22}}{7} \times {\left( {\dfrac{1}{2}} \right)^2} \times 1.4$

$= 525 - 1.47$

${\text{ = 523}}{\text{.53c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

1. A vessel is in the form of an inverted cone. Its height is ${\text{8cm}}$ and the radius of its top, which is open, is ${\text{5cm}}$. It is filled with water up to the brim. When lead shots, each of which is a sphere of radius ${\text{0}}{\text{.5cm}}$are dropped into the vessel, one-fourth of the water flows out. Find the number of lead shots dropped in the vessel.

Ans:

(Image will be uploaded soon)

Height (h) of conical vessel${\text{ = 8cm}}$

Radius (r1) of conical vessel${\text{ = 5cm}}$

Radius (r2) of lead shots${\text{ = 0}}{\text{.5cm}}$

Let the number of lead shots dropped in the vessels be n.

Volume of water spilled = Volume of dropped lead shots

$\dfrac{1}{4} \times$Volume of cone ${\text{ = n *}}\dfrac{{\text{4}}}{{\text{3}}}{{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}^{\text{3}}$

$\dfrac{1}{4} \times \dfrac{1}{3}\pi {{\text{r}}_1}^2{\text{h = n * }}\dfrac{{\text{4}}}{{\text{3}}}{{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}^{\text{3}}$

${{\text{r}}_1}^2{\text{h = n *16}}{{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}^{\text{3}}$

${5^2} \times {\text{8 = n *16}} \times {\left( {0.5} \right)^{\text{3}}}$

$n = \dfrac{{25 \times 8}}{{16 \times {{\left( {\dfrac{1}{2}} \right)}^3}}} = 100$

Therefore, the number of lead shots dropped in the vessel is $100$

1. A solid iron pole consists of a cylinder of height ${\text{220cm}}$ and base diameter ${\text{24cm}}$, which is surmounted by another cylinder of height ${\text{60cm}}$ and radius ${\text{8cm}}$. Find the mass of the pole, given that ${\text{1c}}{{\text{m}}^3}$of iron has approximately ${\text{8g}}$ mass.

Ans:

(Image will be uploaded soon)

From the above figure, we observe that

Height (h1) of larger cylinder ${\text{ = 220cm}}$

Radius (r1) of larger cylinder ${\text{ = }}\dfrac{{24}}{2}{\text{ = 12cm}}$

Height (h2) of smaller cylinder ${\text{ = 60cm}}$

Radius (r2) of smaller cylinder ${\text{ = 8cm}}$

Total volume of pole = Volume of larger cylinder + volume of smaller cylinder

${\text{ =}}\pi{{\text{r}}_{\text{1}}}^{\text{2}}{{\text{h}}_{\text{1}}}{\text{ +}} \pi {{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}^{\text{2}}{{\text{h}}_{\text{2}}}$

${\text{ = }} \pi {\left( {12} \right)^{\text{2}}}* {\text{220 + }} \pi {\left( 8 \right)^{\text{2}}} * 60$

${\text{ = }}\pi\left[ {{\text{(144 * 220) + (64 * 60)}}} \right]$

${\text{ = 35520 * 3}}{\text{.14 = 111532}}{\text{.8c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

Mass of ${\text{1c}}{{\text{m}}^3}$iron = ${\text{8g}}$

Mass of ${\text{111532}}{\text{.8c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$iron ${\text{ = 111532}}{\text{.8 * 8 = 892262}}{\text{.4g = 892}}{\text{.262kg}}$

1. A solid consisting of a right circular cone of height ${\text{120cm}}$ and radius ${\text{60cm}}$ standing on a hemisphere of radius ${\text{60cm}}$ is placed upright in a right circular cylinder full of water such that it touches the bottom. Find the volume of water left in the cylinder, if the radius of the cylinder is ${\text{60cm}}$ and its height is ${\text{180cm}}$.

Ans:

(Image will be uploaded soon)

Radius (r) of hemispherical part = Radius (r) of conical part${\text{ = 60cm}}$

Height (h2) of conical part of solid${\text{ = 120cm}}$

Height (h1) of cylinder${\text{ = 180cm}}$

Radius (r) of cylinder${\text{ = 60cm}}$

Volume of water left = Volume of cylinder − Volume of solid

= Volume of cylinder – (Volume of cone + Volume of hemisphere)

${\text{ = }}\pi{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}{{\text{h}}_{\text{1}}}{\text{ - }}\left( {\dfrac{{\text{1}}}{{\text{3}}}{\pi}{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}{{\text{h}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{ + }}\dfrac{{\text{2}}}{{\text{3}}} \pi {{\text{r}}^{\text{3}}}} \right)$

${\text{ = }}\pi {\left( {60} \right)^{\text{2}}} \times 180{\text{ - }}\left( {\dfrac{{\text{1}}}{{\text{3}}}{\pi }{{\left( {60} \right)}^{\text{2}}} \times {\text{120 + }}\dfrac{{\text{2}}}{{\text{3}}}{\pi }{{\left( {60} \right)}^{\text{3}}}} \right)$

${\text{ = }}\pi{\left( {60} \right)^{\text{2}}}\left[ {\left( {180} \right) - \left( {40 + 40} \right)} \right]$

${\text{ = }}\pi\left( {{\text{3600}}} \right)\left( {{\text{100}}} \right){\text{ = 3,60,000 }}\pi{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}{\text{ = 11311428}}{\text{.57c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}{\text{ = 1}}{\text{.131}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

1. A spherical glass vessel has a cylindrical neck ${\text{8cm}}$ long, ${\text{2cm}}$ in diameter; the diameter of the spherical part is ${\text{8}}{\text{.5cm}}$. By measuring the amount of water it holds, a child finds its volume to be ${\text{345c}}{{\text{m}}^3}$. Check whether she is correct, taking the above as the inside measurements, and $\pi = 3.14$.

Ans:

(Image will be uploaded soon)

Height (h) of cylindrical part ${\text{ = 8cm}}$

Radius (r2) of cylindrical part ${\text{ = }}\dfrac{2}{2}{\text{ = 1cm}}$

Radius (r1) spherical part ${\text{ = }}\dfrac{{8.5}}{2}{\text{ = 4}}{\text{.25cm}}$

Volume of vessel = Volume of sphere + Volume of cylinder ${\text{ = }}\dfrac{4}{3}\pi {\left( {\dfrac{{8.5}}{2}} \right)^3}{\text{ + }}\pi {\left( 1 \right)^2}\left( 8 \right)$

${\text{ = }}\dfrac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times 76.765625{\text{ + 8}} \times {\text{3}}{\text{.14}}$

$= 321.392 + 25.12$

$= 346.512$

${\text{ = 346}}{\text{.51c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

Therefore, she is wrong.
