Question

Choose the correct answer of the following question:

A solid is hemispherical at the bottom and conical (of same radius) above it. If the surface areas of the two parts are equal, then the ratio of its radius and the slant height of the conical part is

Options

  • 1 : 2

  • 2 : 1

  • 1 : 4

  • 4 : 1

MCQ

Solution

Let the radius of the hemisphere or the cone be r and the slant height of the cone b l

Now, 

surface area of the hemisphere = surface area of the cone 

⇒ 2πr= πrl

`=> (pi"rl"^2)/(pi"rl") = 1/2`

`=> "r"/"l" = 1/2`

∴ r : l = 1 : 2

Hence, the correct answer is option (a).

Due to heavy floods in a state, thousands were rendered homeless. 50 schools collectively offered to the state government to provide place and the canvas for 1500 tents to be fixed by the governments and decided to share the whole expenditure equally. The lower part of each tent is cylindrical of base radius 2.8 cm and height 3.5 m, with conical upper part of same base radius but of height 2.1 m. If the canvas used to make the tents costs Rs. 120 per sq. m, find the amount shared by each school to set up the tents. What value is generated by the above problem? (use `pi =22/7`)
