D Correct answer
Explanation

Volume of water = 600cm * 400cm * 1cm = 240,000 cm^3. Cylinder volume = pi * r^2 * h. 240,000 = 3.14 * 20^2 * h. h = 240,000 / (3.14 * 400) = 240,000 / 1256 = 191.07 cm (approx 190.9).

A Correct answer
Explanation

Surface area of a sphere is 4*pi*r^2. Cutting it into two hemispheres creates two new circular faces, each with area pi*r^2. Total surface area of one piece = (1/2 * 4*pi*r^2) + pi*r^2 = 2*pi*r^2 + pi*r^2 = 3*pi*r^2. With r=6, area = 3 * pi * 36 = 108*pi.

C Correct answer
Explanation

Large circle radius R = 14. Area = pi * 14^2 = 196*pi. Smaller circles have diameter 14, so radius r = 7. Area of two smaller circles = 2 * (pi * 7^2) = 98*pi. Remaining area = 196*pi - 98*pi = 98*pi = 98 * 22/7 = 308.

Multiple choice
  1. 7 cm

  2. 21 cm

  3. 28 cm

  4. 14 cm

  5. None of these

D Correct answer
Explanation

Let the breadth of the rectangle be B, so the length is B + 3. The perimeter is 2(L + B) = 50, which simplifies to 2B + 3 = 25, giving B = 11 cm and L = 14 cm. The area of the rectangle is 14 * 11 = 154 square centimeters. Since the area of the circle is also 154, we have pi * r^2 = 154, which yields r = 7 cm, and thus the diameter is 14 cm.

A Correct answer
Explanation

Area of path = pi * (R^2 - r^2) = (22/7) * (23^2 - 14^2) = (22/7) * (529 - 196) = (22/7) * 333 = 1046.57 sq m. Cost = 1046.57 * 20 = 20931.4. Closest option is 20930.
