A rectangular tin sheet is 32 cm long and 14 cm wide. It is rolled along its length to form a cylinder, with opposite edges just touching each other. Find the volume (in cm³) of the cylinder.
\(\frac{3585}{\pi}\)
\(\frac{3588}{\pi}\)
\(\frac{3582}{\pi}\)
\(\frac{3584}{\pi}\)
When a rectangular sheet is rolled along its length to form a cylinder, the length of the rectangle becomes the circumference of the base of the cylinder, and the width of the rectangle becomes the height of the cylinder. We will use these relationships to find the radius and then calculate the volume of the cylinder.
Identify the dimensions of the rectangular sheet:
Relate the dimensions of the rectangle to the cylinder:
When the sheet is rolled along its length, the length of the rectangle becomes the circumference of the base of the cylinder, and the width becomes the height of the cylinder.
Calculate the radius (\(r\)) of the cylinder:
The formula for the circumference of a circle is \(C = 2\pi r\).
\[ 2\pi r = 32 \]\[ r = \frac{32}{2\pi} \]\[ r = \frac{16}{\pi} \text{ cm} \]Calculate the volume (\(V\)) of the cylinder:
The formula for the volume of a cylinder is \(V = \pi r^2 h\).
Substitute the values of \(r\) and \(h\):
\[ V = \pi \left(\frac{16}{\pi}\right)^2 (14) \]\[ V = \pi \left(\frac{256}{\pi^2}\right) (14) \]\[ V = \frac{256 \times 14}{\pi} \]\[ V = \frac{3584}{\pi} \text{ cm}^3 \]Correct Option: D) \(\frac{3584}{\pi}\)
The calculated volume of the cylinder is \(\frac{3584}{\pi}\) cm³, which matches option D.
The question gives four letter-cluster pairs, three of which follow the same rule, and asks for the pair that does not belong. We need to compare each letter of the first cluster with the corresponding letter of the second cluster using alphabet positions and find the pair that breaks the common rule.
Identify the given information:
Find the rule using KC – PT:
The first letter moves 5 places forward and the second letter moves 9 places back, counting around the alphabet before A.
\[ K(11)+5=16=P \] \[ C(3)-9=-6+26=20=T \]Check IA – NR and BT – GK:
\[ I(9)+5=14=N,\quad A(1)-9=-8+26=18=R \] \[ B(2)+5=7=G,\quad T(20)-9=11=K \]Both pairs follow the rule.
Check DV – IN:
\[ D(4)+5=9=I \] \[ V(22)-9=13=M \]The rule gives DV – IM, but the pair shows DV – IN. So, this pair does not follow the rule.
Correct Option: D) DV – IN — In the other pairs the first letter moves 5 places forward and the second moves 9 places back, but V − 9 gives M, not N. Hence, Option D is the correct answer.
A) KC – PT: This is incorrect because K + 5 = P and C − 9 = T, so it follows the rule.
B) IA – NR: This is incorrect because I + 5 = N and A − 9 = R, so it follows the rule.
C) BT – GK: This is incorrect because B + 5 = G and T − 9 = K, so it follows the rule.
The question gives the pairs DG 24 : WT 20 and IL 18 : BY 14 and asks for the term related to QT 30 in the same way. We need to find the rule that changes each letter and the number, check it on both pairs, and apply it to QT 30.
Identify the given information:
Find the rule using DG 24 : WT 20:
Using alphabet positions and counting around after Z, the first letter moves 19 places forward, the second letter moves 13 places forward, and 4 is subtracted from the number.
\[ D(4)+19=23=W \] \[ G(7)+13=20=T \] \[ 24-4=20 \]Check the rule with IL 18 : BY 14:
\[ I(9)+19=28-26=2=B \] \[ L(12)+13=25=Y \] \[ 18-4=14 \]The rule holds.
Apply the rule to QT 30:
\[ Q(17)+19=36-26=10=J \] \[ T(20)+13=33-26=7=G \] \[ 30-4=26 \]Therefore, QT 30 is related to JG 26.
Correct Option: D) JG 26 — The first letter moves 19 places forward, the second letter moves 13 places forward and 4 is subtracted from the number, so QT 30 becomes JG 26. Hence, Option D is the correct answer.
A) RU 26: This is incorrect because although the number 26 is right, Q and T change to J and G, not R and U.
B) JG 34: This is incorrect because it adds 4 to the number (30 + 4) instead of subtracting 4.
C) HF 28: This is incorrect because the correct term works out to JG 26; this term cannot be obtained from the given rule.
The problem involves translating a word problem about percentages into an algebraic equation and then solving for the unknown variable \(k\). We need to calculate percentages and perform basic arithmetic operations.
To find 1200% of 10, we convert the percentage to a decimal or fraction and multiply by 10:
\[ 1200\% \text{ of } 10 = \frac{1200}{100} \times 10 \]\[ = 12 \times 10 \]\[ = 120 \]To find 20% of \(k\), we write it as:
\[ 20\% \text{ of } k = \frac{20}{100} \times k \]\[ = 0.20k \]The problem states that "20% of k is 10 less than 1200% of 10". This can be written as:
\[ 0.20k = 120 - 10 \]Simplify the right side of the equation:
\[ 0.20k = 110 \]\[ k = \frac{110}{0.20} \]\[ k = \frac{110}{\frac{20}{100}} \]\[ k = \frac{110 \times 100}{20} \]\[ k = \frac{11000}{20} \]\[ k = 550 \]B) 550
The question describes the relative directions of five towns and asks for the position of Town N with respect to Town Q. We need to place the towns on a coordinate grid, use the condition that O is north-east of R to fix whether Q is north or south of N, and then compare N with Q.
Identify the given information:
Place O, N, P and Q:
Take O at the origin (0, 0). Since N is east of O, N lies at (a, 0) with a > 0. P is north of N, so P lies on the same vertical line, and Q is south of P, so Q also lies on this line at (a, q).
Place R and use the north-east condition:
R is west of Q, so R lies at (r, q) with r < a. O is north-east of R, so O must be both east of and north of R. This means 0 > q, that is, Q (and R) lie south of the line through O and N.
Compare N with Q:
N is at (a, 0) and Q is at (a, q) with q < 0. Both lie on the same vertical line and N is higher, so N is to the north of Q.
Correct Option: C) North — Q lies directly below N on the same north–south line, because O being north-east of R forces Q to be south of N. Hence, Option C is the correct answer.
A) East: This is incorrect because N and Q lie on the same north–south line, so N is not east of Q.
B) West: This is incorrect because N and Q lie on the same north–south line, so N is not west of Q.
D) South: This is incorrect because Q is south of N, so N is north of Q, not south.
This problem involves decoding a blood relation expression. We need to break down the given expression 'M ÷ N × O − P + Q' step by step, identifying the relationship between each pair of individuals based on the provided code. Then, we will combine these relationships to find how M is related to Q.
'A ÷ B' means 'A is the father of B'.
So, 'M ÷ N' means 'M is the father of N'.
'A × B' means 'A is the wife of B'.
So, 'N × O' means 'N is the wife of O'. This implies O is the husband of N. Since M is the father of N, M is also the father-in-law of O.
'A − B' means 'A is the brother of B'.
So, 'O − P' means 'O is the brother of P'.
'A + B' means 'A is the sister of B'.
So, 'P + Q' means 'P is the sister of Q'.
We need to find how M is related to Q.
From the above, O is the brother of P, and P is the sister of Q. This means O, P, and Q are siblings. (The gender of Q is not specified, but it doesn't affect the relationship of M to Q).
M is the father of N. N is the wife of O. So, M is the father-in-law of O.
Since O is the brother of P and Q, M is the father-in-law of O, who is Q's brother. Therefore, M is the father of Q's brother's wife (N).
Let's trace from Q to M:
Thus, M is the Brother's Wife's Father of Q.
Correct Option: C) Brother's Wife's Father
The question asks to identify the cave complex where the famous 'Trimurti' sculpture is located. This requires knowledge of prominent ancient Indian rock-cut architecture and the specific artworks associated with them.
C) Elephanta caves — The Elephanta Caves, located on Elephanta Island (Gharapuri) in Mumbai Harbour, Maharashtra, are famous for their rock-cut sculptures, primarily dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva. The most renowned sculpture here is the colossal Trimurti, a 6-meter (20 ft) high relief representing Sadashiva, a three-faced manifestation of Shiva. This makes Elephanta Caves the correct answer.
