Questions and Answers

Q 1 - A rectangular marble stone 28 cm wide and 5 cm thick weighs 112 kg. In the event that 1 cubic cm of marble measures 25 gm, then the length of given stone is:

A - 36 cm

B - 37.5 cm

C - 32 cm

D - 26.5 cm

Answer : C

Explanation

Let the required length be x cm.
Then, its volume = (x*28*5*25/1000) kg = 7x/2 kg
∴ 7x/2= 112 ⇒x= 112*2/7= 32 cm
Required length = 32 cm

Q 2 - Half cubic meter of gold sheet is stretched out by pounding in order to spread a region of 1 hectare. The thickness of the sheet is:

A - 0.5 cm

B - 0.05 cm

C - 0.005 cm

D - 0.0005 cm

Answer : C

Explanation

Area = 1 hectare= 10000m2, Volume = 0.5 m3
Thickness =Volume/Area   = (0.5/10000)m =(0.5*100/10000)cm=0.005cm

Q 3 - A corridor is 15m long and 12 m expansive. On the off chance that the aggregate of the zones of the floor and the roof is equivalent to the whole of the ranges of the 4 dividers, the volume of the corridor is:

A - 720 m3

B - 900 m3

C - 1200 m3

D - 1800 m3

Answer : C

Explanation

(Lb+Lb) = 2(L+b)*h= 2*Lb = 2(L+b)*h ⇒Lb= (L+b)*h
⇒ (15+12)*h = (15*12) ⇒h = (15*12)/27m = 20/3 m
Volume = (L*b*h) = (15*12*20/3) m3= 1200 m3

Q 4 - A wooden box measures 20cm *12cm*10cm. Thickness of the wood is 1cm. Volume of the wood required to make the case is:

A - 519 cm3

B - 960 cm3

C - 1120 cm3

D - 2400 cm3

Answer : B

Explanation

External volume = (20*12*10) cm3= 2400cm3
Internal length = (20-2) cm =18cm
Internal breadth = (12-2) =10 cm
Internal height = (10-2) cm =8cm
Internal volume = (18*10*8) cm3= 1440cm3
Volume of wood = (2400-1440) cm3= 960cm3

Q 5 - The aggregate surface zone of a solid shape of side 27 cm is:

A - 2916 cm2

B - 729 cm2

C - 4374 cm2

D - 19683 cm2

Answer : C

Explanation

Surface area =6a2= (6*27*27) cm2= 4374cm2

Q 6 - Two solid shapes have their volumes in the proportion 1:27. The proportion of their surface territories is:

A - 1:3

B - 1:8

C - 1:9

D - 1:18

Answer : C

Explanation

a3/b3= 1/27= (1/3)3⇒ (a/b) 3= (1/3)3⇒a/b=1/3 ⇒b= 3a
S₁/S₂=6a2/6b2= a2/ (3a) 2= a2/9a2= 1/9 = 1:9

Q 7 - The tallness of the barrel is 14 cm and its bended surface range is 264 cm2. The volume of the barrel is:

A - 308 cm3

B - 396 cm3

C - 1232cm3

D - 1848 cm3

Answer : B

Explanation

Given h= 14cm and 2πrh= 264
∴ 2*22/7*r *14= 264 ⇒88r= 264 ⇒r =3
Volume = πr2h = (22/7*3*3*14) cm3= 396 cm3

Q 8 - The number of coins, 1.5cm in distance across and 0.2 cm thick to be softened to shape a right roundabout chamber of stature 10 cm and width 4.5 cm is:

A - 300

B - 350

C - 450

D - 500

Answer : C

Explanation

For each coin = r =1.5/2cm and h = 0.2 cm
Volume of 1 coin = πr2h = (π*1.5/2*1.5/2* 0.2) cm3
=( π*15/2*15/2*2*1/1000)cm3=  9π/80 cm3
For given cylinder, R= 4.5/2 cm and H= 10 cm
Volume= πR2H= (22/7*4.5/2*4.5/2* 10*1/100) cm3
= (π*45/2*45/2*10*1/100) = 45*9π/8 cm3
Number of coins= (45*9*π/8*80/9π) = 450

Q 9 - Two barrel have break even with volumes and their statures are in the proportion 1:3. The proportion of their radii is

A - 4:√3

B - 3:2√3

C - 2:√3

D - 3:√3

Answer : D

Explanation

Let their radii be R and r and the heights be h and 3h.
Then πR2h = πr2*3h⇒ R2/r2 =3 ⇒(R/r) 2 = (√3)2
⇒R/r= √3/1 = 3/√3
∴ R: r = 3:√3

Q 10 - In the event that the sweep of a circle is multiplied, its surface region will increment by:

A - Half

B - 200 %

C - 300%

D - 400%

Answer : C

Explanation

Let, original radius=r. Then surface area= 4πr2
New radius= 2r. New surface area = 4π (2r) 2= 16πr2
Increase % in surface areas = (12πr2/4 πr2*100) %= 300%
