Case I. r = 7 cm
\(\therefore\) Surface area = \(4\pi { r }^{ 2 }\)
\(=4\times \frac { 22 }{ 7 } \times { \left( 7 \right) }^{ 2 }=616{ cm }^{ 2 }\)
Case II. r = 14 cm
\(\therefore\) Surface area = \(4\pi { r }^{ 2 }\)
\(=4\times \frac { 22 }{ 7 } \times { \left( 14 \right) }^{ 2 }\)
\(\\ =2464{ cm }^{ 2 }\)
\(\therefore\) Ratio of surface area of the balloon
\(=616:2464\)
\(\\ =\frac { 616 }{ 2464 } =\frac { 1 }{ 4 } =1:4\)
11.
2r = 20 cm
\(\Rightarrow\) r = 10 cm
h = 30 cm
\(\therefore \) Cloth required = \(2\pi r\left( h+2.5+2.5 \right) \)
\(=2\pi r\left( h+5 \right) =2\times \frac { 22 }{ 7 } \times 10\times \left( 30+5 \right) \)
\(\\ =2200{ cm }^{ 2 }.\)
12.
For shelter
l = 4 m, b = 3 m,
h = 2.5 m
\(\therefore\) Total surface area of the shelter
= lb + 2(bh + hl)
= (4)(3) + 2[(3)(2.5) + (2.5)(4)]
= 12 + 2[7.5 + 10]
= 47 m2
Hence, 47 m2 of tarpaulin will be required.
13.
Let the length, breadth and height of the rectangular hall be l m, b m and h m respectively.
Perimeter = 250 m
\(\Rightarrow\) 2(l + b) = 250
\(\Rightarrow\) l + b = 125 ...(1)
Area of the four walls
\(=\frac { 15000 }{ 10 } =1500\)m2
\(\Rightarrow\) 2(l + b)h = 1500
\(\Rightarrow\) (l + b)h = 750
\(\Rightarrow\) 125 h = 750 Using (1)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(h=\frac { 750 }{ 125 } \)
\(\Rightarrow\) h = 6 m
Hence, the height of the hall is 6 m.
14.
(i) Radius of a cylindrical candle(r) = 2 cm
Height of a cylindrical candle (h) = 7 cm
\(\therefore\) Volume of 12 Cylindrical candles = 12 \(\times\) 88
= 1056 cm3
Also, radius of a spherical fire cracker
r = 1.5 cm = \(\frac { 3 }{ 2 } \)cm
\(\therefore\) Volume of a spherical fire cracker
\(=\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \pi { r }^{ 3 }\)
\(=\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \times \frac { 22 }{ 7 } \times \frac { 3 }{ 2 } \times \frac { 3 }{ 2 } \times \frac { 3 }{ 2 } \)
\(=\frac { 99 }{ 7 } { cm }^{ 3 }\)
Volume of 14 spherical fire crackers
\(=\frac { 99 }{ 7 } \times 14=198\quad { cm }^{ 3 }\)
(ii) Lipsa has better project because candles do not pollute the environment.
(iii) Avoid pollution and save energy.
15.
(i) We have, radius of cylindrical tank
r = 1 m
and height of cylindrical tank h = 3.5 m
Volume of cylindrical tank = \(\pi\)r2h
\(=\frac { 22 }{ 7 } \times 1\times 1\times 3.5\)
= 11 m3
Let the rainfall be h m, then
Volume of water on the roof = Volume of cylindrical tank
\(\Rightarrow\) 22 \(\times\) 20 \(\times\) h = 11
\(\Rightarrow \ h=\frac { 11 }{ 22\times 20 } \)
\(=\frac { 1 }{ 40 } m\)
\(=\frac { 100 }{ 40 } \)
= 2.5 cm
(ii) Save water to save earth.
16.
(a) Volume of cone = \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \pi { r }^{ 2 }h\) ......(i)
Also, l2 = r2 + h2 ............(ii)
r2 = l2 - h2
Substituting (ii), in (i), we get
Volume of cone (v) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \pi ({ l }^{ 2 }-{ h }^{ 2 })h\)
\(=\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \pi { l }^{ 2 }h-\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \pi { h }^{ 3 }\)
So, answer is yes.
(b) Truth value
17.

rcone = 3 cm
hcone = 4 cm
lcone= 5 cm

Above given cone is formed with radius 3 cm, height 4 cm and slant height 5 cm when revolved about the fixed side of 4 cm.
\(V=\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \pi { r }^{ 2 }h\)
\(=\frac { 1 }{ 3 } .\frac { 22 }{ 7 } .(3)(3)(4)\)
= 37.71 cm3
Total surface area=\(\pi\)rl+\(\pi\)r2
\(=\frac { 22 }{ 7 } \times 3(5+3)\)
= 75.43 cm2
18.
For roller
\(r=\frac { 1.5 }{ 2 } m=0.75m\)
\(\\ h=84cm=0.84m\)
\(\therefore \) Curved surface area = \(2\pi rh\)
\(=2\times \frac { 22 }{ 7 } \times 0.75\times 0.84\)
\(\\ =3.96{ m }^{ 2 }\)
\(\therefore \) Area of the ground levelled in 1 revolution
= 3.96 m2
\(\therefore \) Area of the ground levelled in 100 revolutions
= 3.96 100 m2 = 396 m2
\(\therefore \) Cost of levelling
= Rs \(396\times \frac { 50 }{ 100 } =\) Rs 198
19.
Let the dimensions of the box be 2k, 3k and 4k.
\(\therefore \) Total surface area = 2(lb + bh + hl)
= 2(2k.3k + 3k.4k + 4k.2k)
= 52k2m2
Cost of covering at the rate of Rs 8 per m2
= 52k2 \(\times\) 8 = Rs 416k2
Cost of covering at the rate of Rs 9.50 per m2
= 52k2 \(\times\) 9.50 = Rs 494k2
Difference between the costs
= Rs 494k2 - Rs 416k2 = Rs 78k2
According to the question,
78k2 = 1248
\(\Rightarrow\) k2 = 16 \(\Rightarrow\) k = 4
Hence, the dimensions of the box are 8 m, 12 m and 16 m.

Let radii of cylinders be 2x and 3x and heights be 5y and 3y respectively.
\(\therefore\) Ratio of volumes = \(\frac { \pi { (2x) }^{ 2 }\times 5y }{ \pi { (3x) }^{ 2 }\times 3y } \)
\(=\frac { { 4x }^{ 2 }\times 5 }{ { 9x }^{ 2 }\times 3 } \)
= 20:27.
27.
( )
Given, diameter of football = 5 \(\times\) diameter of cricket ball
If r denotes radius of a football and r' that of a criket ball, then we have
2r = 5\(\times\)(2r')
\(\frac { 2r }{ 2r' } =5\)
or \(\frac { r }{ r' } =5\)
Now, ratio of surface areas\(=\frac { 4\pi { r }^{ 2 } }{ 4\pi { (r') }^{ 2 } } ={ \left( \frac { r }{ r' } \right) }^{ 2 }=\frac { 25 }{ 1 } \)
= 25 : 1
28.
( )
Given, Area of Sphere=Volume of sphere
\(4\pi { r }^{ 2 }=\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \pi { r }^{ 3 }\)
where r is the radius of sphere
\(\Rightarrow\) r = 3 cm [on solving]
\(\therefore\) Diameter = 2r = 6 cm.

Capacity of the tank = 120 cm3
Capacity of the tank = length\(\times\)breadth\(\times\)height
