6. A rectangular sheet of paper of size 11 cm x 7 cm is first rotated about the side 11 cm and
then about the side 7 cm to form a cylinder, as shown in the diagram. The ratio of their
curved surface areas is:
2. A famous sweet shop “Madanlal Sweets” sells tinned rasgullas. The tin container is
cylindrical in shape with diameter 14cm, height 16cm, and it can hold 20 spherical
rasgullas of diameter 6cm and sweetened liquid such that the can is filled and then sealed.
Find out how much sweetened liquid the can contains. Take π=3.14.

3. The ratio of the radius and the height of a solid metallic right circular cylinder is 7 : 27.
This is melted and made into a cone of diameter 14 cm and slant height 25cm. Find the
height of the: (a) cone (b) cylinder [(a) 24 cm (b) 18 cm]
4. The curved surface area of a right circular cone is half of another right circular cone. If the
ratio of their slant heights is 2:1 and that of their volumes is 3:1, find ratio of their: (a) radii
(b) heights [(a) 1:4 (b) 48:1]
5. A mathematics teacher uses certain amount of terracotta clay to form different shaped
solids. First, she turned it into a sphere of radius 7cm and then she made a right circular
cone with base radius 14 cm. Find the height of the cone so formed. If the same clay is
turned to make a right circular cylinder of height 7/3 cm, then find the radius of the
cylinder so formed. Also,compare the total surface areas of sphere and cylinder so formed.

6. A solid is in the shape of a hemisphere of radius 7 cm, surmounted by a cone of height 4
cm. The solid is immersed completely in a cylindrical container filled with water to a
certain height. If the radius of the cylinder is 14 cm, find the rise in the water level.[49.78

7. Oil is stored in a spherical vessel occupying 3/4 of its full capacity. Radius of this spherical
vessel is 28 cm. This oil is then poured into a cylindrical vessel with a radius of 21 cm.
Find the height of the oil in the cylindrical vessel (correct to the nearest cm). [50

9. In the adjoining diagram, a tilted right circular cylindrical vessel with base diameter 7 cm
contains a liquid. When placed vertically, the height of the liquid in the vessel is the mean
of the two heights shown in the diagram. Find the area of the wet surface when it is placed
vertically on the horizontal level. [
