उत्तर

Let x be the edge of the cube and r be the radius of the sphere.

Surface area of cube = 6x2

And surface area of the sphere = 4πr2

∴ 6x2 + 4πr2 = K  ......(constant)

⇒ r = `sqrt(("K" - 6x^2)/(4pi)`  .....(i)

Volume of the cube = x3 and the volume of sphere = `3/4 pi"r"^3`

∴  Sum of their volumes (V) = Volume of cube + Volume of sphere

⇒ V = `x^3 + 4/3 pi"r"^3`

⇒ V = `x^3 + 4/3 pi xx (("K" - 6x^2)/(4pi))^(3/2)`

Differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get

`"dV"/"dx" = 3x^2 + (4pi)/3 xx 3/2("K" - 6x^2)^(1/2) (- 12x) xx 1/((4pi)^(3/2)`

= `3x^2 + (2pi)/((4pi)^(3/2)) xx (-12x) ("K" - 6x^2)^(1/2)`

= `3x^2 + 1/(4pi^(1/2)) xx (-12x) ("K" - 6x^2)^(1/2)`

∴ `"dV"/"dx" = 3x^2 - (3x)/sqrt(pi) ("K" - 6x^2)^(1/2)`  ....(ii)

For local maxima and local minima, `"dV"/"dx"` = 0

∴ `3x^2 - (3x)/sqrt(pi) ("K" - 6x^2)^(1/2)` = 0

⇒ `3x[x - ("k" - 6x^2)^(1/2)/sqrt(pi)]` = 0

x ≠ 0

∴ `x - ("K" - 6x^2)^(1/2)/sqrt(pi)` = 0

⇒ x = `("K" - 6x^2)^(1/2)/sqrt(pi)`

Squaring both sides, we get

x2 = `("K" - 6x^2)/pi`

⇒ `pix^2 = "K" - 6x^2`

⇒ `pix^2 + 6x^2` = K

⇒ `x^2(pi + 6)` = K

⇒ x2 = `"K"/(pi + 6)`

∴ x = `sqrt("K"/(pi + 6)`

Now putting the value of K in equation (i), we get

`6x^2 + 4pir^2 = x^2(pi + 6)`

⇒ `6x^2 + 4pi"r"^2 = pix^2 + 6x^2`

⇒ `4pi"r"^2 = pi"r"^2`

⇒ 4r2 = x2

∴ 2r = x

∴ x:2r = 1:1

Now differentiating equation (ii) w.r.t x, we have

`("d"^2"V")/("dx"^2) = 6x - 3/sqrt(pi) "d"/"dx" [x("K" - 6x^2)^(1/2)]`

= `6x - 3/sqrt(pi)[x * 1/(2sqrt("K" - 6x^2)) xx (-12x) + ("K" - 6x^2)^(1/2) * 1]`

= `6x - 3/sqrt(pi) [(-6x^2)/sqrt("K" - 6x^2) + sqrt("K" - 6x^2)]`

= `6x - 3/sqrt(pi) [(-6x^2 + "K" - 6x^2)/sqrt("K" - 6x^2)]`

= `6x + 3/sqrt(pi) [(12x^2 - "K")/sqrt("K" - 6x^2)]`

Put x = `sqrt("K"/(pi + 6)`

= `6sqrt("K"/(pi + 6)) + 3/sqrt(pi)[((12"K")/(pi + 6) - "K")/sqrt("K" - (6"K")/(pi + 6))]`

= `6sqrt("K"/(pi + 6)) + 3/sqrt(pi) [(12"K" - pi"K" - 6"K")/sqrt((pi"K" + 6"K" - 6"K")/(pi + 6))]`

= `6sqrt("K"/(pi + 6)) + 3/sqrt(pi) [(6"K" - pi"K")/sqrt((pi"K")/(pi + 6))]`

= `6sqrt("K"/(pi + 6)) + 3/(pisqrt("K"))[(6"K" - pi"K") sqrt(pi + 6)] > 0`

So it is minima.

Hence, the required ratio is 1 : 1 when the combined volume is minimum.

Complete the following activity to divide 84 into two parts such that the product of one part and square of the other is maximum.

Solution: Let one part be x. Then the other part is 84 - x

Letf (x) = x2 (84 - x) = 84x2 - x3

∴ f'(x) = `square`

and f''(x) = `square`

For extreme values, f'(x) = 0

∴ x = `square  "or"    square`

f(x) attains maximum at x = `square`

Hence, the two parts of 84 are 56 and 28.
