Therefore,

[using π = 3.14]
or h = 1
Therefore, the height of the cylinder is 1 m.

Question 2: In a hot water heating system, there is a cylindrical pipe

of length 28 m and diameter 5 cm. Find the total radiating surface in
the system.

height. Find the cost of painting the curved surface of the pillar at the
rate of Rs 12.50 per m2.
C

Solution:
©

Height of cylindrical pillar (h) = 3.5 m

50
Radius of circular end of pillar (r) = cm = 25 cm = 0.25 m
2

[As radius = half of the diameter] and [1 m = 100 cm]

Curved surface area of cylindrical pillar = 2πrh
= 2 × 3.14 × 0.25 × 3.5
= 5.5
Curved surface area of cylindrical pillar is 5.5 m.
Find the cost:
Cost of whitewashing 1m2 is Rs 12.50 (Given)
Cost of whitewashing 5.5 m2 area = Rs. 12.50 × 5.5 = Rs. 68.75
Thus the cost of whitewashing the pillar is Rs 68.75.

Question 4: It is required to make a closed cylindrical tank of height

1 m and the base diameter of 140 cm from a metal sheet. How many

Question 5: The total surface area of a hollow cylinder which is open

on both the sides is 4620 sq.cm and the area of the base ring is 115.5
sq.cm and height is 7 cm. Find the thickness of the cylinder.
Solution:
Given:
Total surface area of hollow cylinder = 4620 cm2
Height of cylinder (h) = 7 cm
Area of base ring = 115.5 cm2
To find: Thickness of the cylinder
Let ‘r1’ and ‘r2’ are the inner and outer radii of the hollow cylinder
respectively.
Then, πr22 – πr12 = 115.5 ……. (1)
And,
2πr1h +2πr2h+ 2(πr22 – πr12) = 4620

T IO S
Or 2πh (r1 + r2) + 2 x 115.5 = 4620

Again, from equation (1),

πr22 – πr12 = 115.5
C

or π (r2 + r1) (r2 – r1) = 115.5

©

[using identity: a2 – b2 = (a – b) (a + b)]

Using result of equation (2),
313.5 (r2 – r1) = 115.5

or r2 – r1 = = 0.3684

Therefore, thickness of the cylinder is cm or 0.3684 cm.

Question 6: Find the ratio between the total surface area of a cylinder
to its curved surface area, given that height and radius of the tank are
7.5 m and 3.5 m.
Solution:
Height of cylinder (h) = 7.5 m
Radius of cylinder (r) = 3.5 m
We know, Total Surface Area of cylinder (T.S.A) = 2πr(r + h)
And, Curved surface area of a cylinder (C.S.A) = 2πrh
Now, Ratio between the total surface area of a cylinder to its curved

its both sides. If the radius of the base is 70 cm and its height is 1.4 m,
calculate the cost of tin-coating at the rate of Rs 3.50 per 1000 cm2.
Solution:
It is given that,
r = 70 cm
h = 1.4 m
3.50
Tin coating rate = Rs. cm2
1000
We have to find the total cost of coating the cylinder with tin.
Let us first convert h from meters to centimeters.
h = 1.4 m
= 140 cm
Since the cylindrical vessel without lid has to be coated both on the inner
side as well the outer side,

Question 9: The students of a Vidyalaya were asked to participate in

a competition for making and decorating pen holders in the shape of

competitors with carboard. If there were 35 competitors, how much
cardboard was required to be bought for the competition?
Solution:
Given data is as follows:

As per statement: r:h = 2:3
Then, radius = 2x cm and height = 3x cm
Volume of cylinder = πr2h

We have to find the volume of the cylinder.

It is given that,
Total surface area = 1628 cm²
That is,
2𝜋𝑟ℎ + 2𝜋𝑟 2 = 1628
2𝜋𝑟(ℎ + 𝑟) = 1628
But it is already given in the problem that,
ℎ + 𝑟 = 37 cm
Therefore,
2𝜋𝑟 × 37 = 1628
 22
2× × 𝑟 × 37 = 1628

𝑟 = 7 cm
Since ℎ + 𝑟 = 37 cm
We have,
ℎ + 7 = 37 cm
ℎ = 30 cm

Question 32: A well with 10 m inside diameter is dug 8.4 m deep.

Earth taken out of it is spread all around it to a width of 7.5 m to form
an embankment. Find the height of the embankment.
Solution:
Given data is as follows:
Inner diameter of the well = 10 m
Height = 8.4 m
Width of embankment = 7.5 m
We have to find the height of the embankment.
Given is the diameter of the well which is 10 m. Therefore,
𝑟=5m
The outer radius of the embankment,
𝑅 = Inner radius of the well + width of the embankment
= 5 + 7.5
= 12.5 m
Let be the height of the embankment.

Ratio of total surface area to the curved surface area of a cylinder of radius
r and height h can be written as:
Total surface area of a cylinder [2𝜋𝑟(ℎ+𝑟)] ℎ+𝑟
= =
Curved surface area of a cylinder 2𝜋𝑟 2 𝑟

The ratio of Total Surface Area to Curved Surface Area is (h + r): h
