Question

A hemispherical bowl is made of steel whose thickness is 2 cm. The inside radius of the bowl is 3 cm. Find the volume (in cm³) of the steel used in making the bowl. (Rounded off to 2 decimal places) (Take π = 22/7)

The correct answer is

205.33

Let R be the outer radius and r be the inner radius of the hemispherical bowl. Given, thickness = 2 cm and inner radius r = 3 cm. Therefore, outer radius R = r + thickness = 3 + 2 = 5 cm. Volume of the steel used = Volume of outer hemisphere - Volume of inner hemisphere = (2/3)πR³ - (2/3)πr³ = (2/3)π(R³ - r³) = (2/3) * (22/7) * (5³ - 3³) = (2/3) * (22/7) * (125 - 27) = (2/3) * (22/7) * 98 = (2/3) * 22 * 14 = (44/3) * 14 = 616/3 = 205.333... Rounded off to 2 decimal places, the volume is 205.33 cm³.

Important Questions from Simple and Compound Both

  1. What is the compound interest (in Rs.) at the rate of 10%, compounded annually, for 3 years on the principal which in 8 years at the rate of 12% per annum gives Rs. 4,800 as simple interest?

  2. A certain sum amounts to Rs. 15,500 in 2 years at 12% p.a. simple interest. If the same sum is compounded half-yearly at 10% per annum for \(1 \frac{1}{2}\) years, what will be the amount received? 

  3. The difference in compound interest on a certain sum at 10% p.a. for one year, when the interest is compounded half-yearly and yearly, is Rs. 88.80. What is the simple interest on the same sum for \(1\frac{2}{3}\) years at the same rate?

  4. A sum of Rs. 7500 amounts to Rs. 9075 at 10% p.a, interest being compounded yearly in a certain time. The simple interest (in Rs.) on the same sum for the same time and the same rate is:

  5. A certain sum amounts to Rs.291600 in 2 years and to Rs.314928 in 3 years on compound interest compounded annually. How much will be the simple interest (in Rs.) on Rs.40000 at the same rate for 2 years?
