In a hospital used water is collected in a cylindrical tank of diameter 2 m and height 5 m. After recycling, this water is used to irrigate a park of the hospital whose length is 25 m and breadth is 20 m. If the tank is filled completely then what will be the height of standing water used for irrigating the park. Write your views on recycling of water.
Diameter of cylinder (d) = 2 m
Radius of cylinder (r) = 1 m
Height of cylinder (H) = 5 m
Volume of cylindrical tank, Vc = πr2H = π×(1)2×5=5π m
Length of the park (l) = 25 m
Breadth of park (b) = 20 m
the height of standing water in the park = h
Volume of water in the park = lbh = 25×20×h
Now water from the tank is used to irrigate the park. So,
Volume of cylindrical tank = Volume of water in the park
⇒5π=25×20×h
⇒5π/25×20=h
⇒h=π/100 m
⇒h=0.0314 m
Through recycling of water, better use of the natural resource occurs without wastage. It helps in reducing and preventing pollution.
It thus helps in conserving water. This keeps the greenery alive in urban areas like in parks gardens etc.
In the given figure, the side of square is 28 cm and radius of each circle is half of the length of the side of the square where O and O' are centres of the circles. Find the area of shaded region.
Side of square = 28 cm and radius of each circle = 28/2 cm
Area of the shaded region
= Area of the square + Area of the two circles − Area of the two quadrants
The height of a cone is 10 cm. The cone is divided into two parts using a plane parallel to its base at the middle of its height. Find the ratio of the volumes of the two parts.
Let the height and radius of the given cone be H and R respectively.
The cone is divided into two parts by drawing a plane through the mid point of its axis and parallel to the base.
Upper part is a smaller cone and the bottom part is the frustum of the cone.
⇒ OC = CA = h/2
Let the radius of smaller cone be r cm.
In Δ OCD and Δ OAB,
∠OCD = ∠OAB = 90°
∠COD = ∠AOB (common)
∴ Δ OCD ∼ Δ OAB (AA similarity)
⇒ OA/OC = AB/CD = OB/OD
⇒ h / h/2 = R/r
⇒ R = 2r
The radius and height of the cone OCD are r cm and h/2 cm
Therefore the volume of the cone OCD = 1/3 x π x r2 x h/2 = 1/6 πr2h
Volume of the cone OAD = 1/3 x π x R2 x h = 1/3 x π x 4r2 x h
The volume of the frustum = Volume of the cone OAD - Volume of the cone OCD
= (1/3 x π x 4r2 x h) – (1/3 x π x r2 x h/2)
= 7/6 πr2h
Ratio of the volume of the two parts = Volume of the cone OCD : volume of the frustum
= 1/6 πr2h : 7/6 πr2h
= 1 : 7
Height of the solid metal cylinder, h = 10 cm
Radius of the solid metal cylinder, r = 4.2 cm
therefore,
Radius of each hemisphere = radius of the solid metal cylinder, r = 4.2 cm
Now,
Volume of the rest of the cylinder = Volume of cylinder - 2 x volume of each hemisphere
Thickness of the cylindrical wire = 1.4 cm
Therefore,
Radius of the cylindrical wire, R = 1.4/2 = 0.7 cm
Let the length of the wire be H cm.
It is given that the rest of the cylinder is melted and converted into a cylindrical wire.
therefore,
Volume of the cylindrical wire = Volume of the rest of the cylinder
⇒ π x 0.7 x 0.7 x H = π x (4.2)2 x (4.4)
Hence, the length of the wire is 158.4 cm
Area of the square lawn PQRS = 42 m x 42 m
Let OP = OS = xm
So, x2 + x2 = (42)2
⇒ 2x2 = 42 x 42
⇒ x2 = 21 x 42
Now,
area of sector POS=
