Solution

From the figure, it can be observed that the greatest diameter possible for such hemisphere is equal to the cube’s edge, i.e., 7cm.

Radius (r) of hemispherical part = `7/2` = 3.5 cm

Total surface area of solid = Surface area of cubical part + CSA of hemispherical part − Area of base of hemispherical part

= 6 (Edge)2 + 2πr2 - πr2  

= 6 (Edge)2 + πr2

Total surface area of solid = `6(7)^2 + 22/7 xx 7/2xx 7/2`

= 294 + 38.5

= 332.5 cm2

Khurja is a city in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh famous for the pottery. Khurja pottery is traditional Indian pottery work which has attracted Indians as well as foreigners with a variety of tea sets, crockery and ceramic tile works. A huge portion of the ceramics used in the country is supplied by Khurja and is also referred as "The Ceramic Town".

One of the private schools of Bulandshahr organised an Educational Tour for class 10 students to Khurja. Students were very excited about the trip. Following are the few pottery objects of Khurja.

Students found the shapes of the objects very interesting and they could easily relate them with mathematical shapes viz sphere, hemisphere, cylinder etc.

Maths teacher who was accompanying the students asked the following questions:

  1. The internal radius of hemispherical bowl (filled completely with water) in I is 9 cm and the radius and height of the cylindrical jar in II are 1.5 cm and 4 cm respectively. If the hemispherical bowl is to be emptied in cylindrical jars, then how many cylindrical jars are required?
  2. If in the cylindrical jar full of water, a conical funnel of the same height and same diameter is immersed, then how much water will flow out of the jar?
