10th Maths Exercise 7.2 Samacheer Kalvi Question 1.
A 14 m deep well with inner diameter 10 m is dug and the earth taken out is evenly spread all around the well to form an embankment of width 5 m. Find the height of the embankment.
Solution:
Inner diameter = 10 m
Inner height = 14 m

Volume of the cylinder = πr2h cubic units
$$=\frac{22}{7} \times 5 \times 5 \times 14$$
= 1100 m3
Volume of the hollow = n(R2 – r2)h cubic units
R = 10 m
r = 5 m
$$\Rightarrow \frac{22}{7} \times\left(10^{2}-5^{2}\right) h=1100 \mathrm{m}^{3}$$
(∵ the earth taken out = the earth spread all around)

Ex 7.2 Class 10 Samacheer Question 2.
A cylindrical glass with diameter 20 cm has water to a height of 9 cm. A small cylindrical metal of radius 5 cm and height 4 cm is immersed it completely. Calculate the raise of the water in the glass?
Solution:
The volume of the water raised = Volume of the cylindrical metal.

∴ The height of the raised water in the glass = 1 cm.

Exercise 7.2 Class 10 Samacheer Kalvi Question 3.
If the circumference of a conical wooden piece is 484 cm then find its volume when its height is 105 cm.
Solution:
Circumference of the base of the cone = 484 cm
height = 105 cm
∴ 2πr = 484

$$r=484 \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{7}{22}$$
= 77 cm

10th Maths Mensuration Exercise 7.2 Question 4.
A conical container is fully filled with petrol. The radius is 10m and the height is 15 m. If the container can release the petrol through its bottom at the rate of 25 cu. meter per minute, in how many minutes the container will be emptied. Round off your answer to the nearest minute.
Solution:
Volume of the cone = $$\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h$$ cu. units.

Volume of the given conical container = $$\frac{1}{3} \times \pi \times 10 \times 10 \times 15$$
= 500π m3
