Question
A tent is in the shape of a cylinder surmounted by a conical top. If the height and diameter of the cylindrical part are 2.1 m and 4 m respectively, and the slant height of the top is 2.8 m, find the area of the canvas used for making the tent. Also, find the cost of the canvas of the tent at the rate of Rs 500 per m2.
(Note that the base of the tent will not be covered with canvas.) [Use `pi = 22/7`]

Solution

Given that,
Height (h) of the cylindrical part = 2.1 m
Diameter of the cylindrical part = 4 m
Radius of the cylindrical part = 2 m
Slant height (l) of conical part = 2.8 m
Area of canvas used = CSA of conical part + CSA of cylindrical part
πrl + 2πrh
= `π xx 2 xx 2.8+2π xx 2 xx2.1`
= `2π[2.8+2 xx 2.1]`
= `2π[2.8 + 4.2]`
= `2 xx 22/7 xx 7`
= 44 m2
Cost of 1 m2 canvas = Rs 500
Cost of 44 m2 canvas = 44 × 500 = 22000
Therefore, it will cost Rs 22000 for making such a tent.

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:
- 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?
- 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?
