  2. 48 cm3

  3. 192 cm3

  4. 128 cm3

  5. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Cylinder volume = pi * r^2 * h = 144. Since r = h = radius of sphere (R), pi * R^3 = 144. Hemisphere volume = 2/3 * pi * R^3. Substituting pi * R^3 = 144, volume = 2/3 * 144 = 96.

  2. 1256 cm3

  3. 1296 cm3

  4. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

r+h=15. TSA = 2*pi*r(r+h) = 660. 2*pi*r*15 = 660. r = 660 / (30*pi) = 22/pi. h = 15 - 22/pi. Volume = pi*r^2*h = pi*(22/pi)^2 * (15 - 22/pi) = (484/pi) * (15 - 22/pi) = 7260/pi - 484*22/pi^2. Using pi approx 22/7, V = 7260/(22/7) - 10648/(484/49) = 2310 - 1078 = 1232.
