Question

The dimensions of a metallic cuboid are 100cm× 80 cm× 64cm. It is melted and recast into a cube. Find the surface area of the cube.

Sum

Solution

Let the edge of cube be a.

As, 

Volume of cube = Volume of cuboid 

`rArr a^3 = 100xx80xx64`

`rArr a^3 = 100xx80xx64`

`rArr a = root(3)(512000)`

⇒ a =80 cm

Now, the surface area of the cube = 6a2

=6 ×80 ×80 

= 38400 cm2

So, the surface area of the cube is 38400 cm2.

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`)

Assertion (A)
If the volumes of two spheres are in the ratio 27 : 8, then their surface areas are in the ratio 3 : 2.

Reason (R)
Volume of a sphere `=4/3pi"R"^3`

If the length of the diagonal of a cube is `5sqrt(3)` cm, find the total surface area.

Length of the diagonal of the cube = `square`

So, `square` = `5sqrt(3)`

⇒ Side = `square`

Total surface area of cube = `square`

= `square` × `square` × `square`

= `square` cm2

 Hence, the total surface area is `square`.
