Surface Area and Volume of a Right Circular Cylinder Problems – Solved

1: Curved surface area of a right circular cylinder is 4.4 m2. If the radius of the base of the cylinder is 0.7 m. Find its height.

Given,

• Radius of the base of the cylinder = r = 0.7 m
• Curved surface area of cylinder = C.S.A = 4.4m²

Let ‘h’ be the height of the cylinder.

We know, curved surface area of a cylinder = 2πrh

Therefore,

2πrh = 4.4

2 × 3.14 × 0.7 × h = 4.4 [using π=3.14]

h = 1

Therefore the height of the cylinder is 1 m.

2: It is required to make a closed cylindrical tank of height 1 m and the base diameter of 140 cm from a metal sheet. How many square meters of the sheet are required for the same?

Height of cylindrical tank (h) = 1 m

Base radius of cylindrical tank (r) = diameter/2

r = 140/2 cm

r = 70 cm = 0.7 m [1 m = 100 cm]

Now,

Area of Sheeet Required = Total Surface Area of Tank (TSA) = 2πr(h + r)

= 2 × 3.14 × 0.7(1 + 0.7)

= 7.48

Therefore, 7.48 m² metal sheeet is required to make required closed cylindrical tank.

3: Find the ratio betweeen the total surface area of a cylinder to its curved surface area, given that height and radius of the tank are 7.5 m and 3.5 m.

• Height of cylinder (h) = 7.5 m
• Radius of cylinder (r) = 3.5 m

We know,

• Total Surface Area of cylinder (T.S.A) = 2πr(r+h)
• Curved Surface Area of a Cylinder(C.S.A) = 2πrh

Now, Ratio between the total surface area of a cylinder to its curved surface area is

T.S.A/C.S.A = 2πr(r+h)/2πrh

= (r + h)/h

= (3.5 + 7.5)/7.5

= 11/7.5

= 22/15 or 22:15

Therefore the required ratio is 22:15

4: Inner diameter of a cylindrical wooden pipe is 24 cm and its outer diameter is 28 cm. The length of the pipe is 35 cm. Find the mass of the pipe, if 1 cm³ of wood has a mass of 0.6 gm.

Let r and R be the inner and outer radii of cylindrical pipe.

Inner radius of a cylindrical pipe (r) = 24/2 = 12 cm

Outer radius of a cylindrical pipe (R) = 24/2 = 14 cm

Height of pipe (h) = length of pipe = 35 cm

Mass of pipe = volume × density = π(R² – r²)h

= 22/7(142 – 122)35

= 5720

Mass of pipe is 5720 cm³

Mass of 1 cm³ wood = 0.6 gm (Given)

Therefore, mass of 5720 cm³ wood = 5720 × 0.6 = 3432 gm = 3.432 kg

5: If the lateral surface of a cylinder is 94.2 cm2 and its height is 5 cm, find:

i) radius of its base (ii) volume of the cylinder

[use π = 3.141]

Lateral Surface of Cylinder = 94.2 cm²

Height of Cylinder = 5 cm

Let ‘r’ be the radius

(i) Lateral Surface of Cylinder = 94.2 cm²

2πrh = 94.2

2 × 3.14 × r × 5 = 94.2

r = 3 cm

(ii) Volume of the cylinder = πr²h

= (3.14 × 32 × 5) cm³

= 141.3 cm³

6: A patient in a hospital is given soup daily in a cylindrical bowl of diameter 7 cm. If the bowl is filled with soup to a height of 4 cm, how much soup the hospital has to prepare daily to serve 250 patients?

Radius of Cylindrical Bowl (R) = diameter/2 = 7/2 cm = 3.5 cm

Height = 4 cm

Now,

Volume of Soup in 1 bowl = πr²h

= 22/7×3.52×4 cm³

= 154 cm³

Volume of Soup in 250 bowls = (250 × 154) cm³

= 38500 cm³

= 38.5 liters

Thus, hospital has to prepare 38.5 liters of soup daily in order to serve 250 patients.

7: Cost of painting the total outside surface of a closed cylindrical oil tank at 50 paise per square decimetre is Rs 198. The height of the tank is 6 times the radius of the base of the tank. Find the volume corrected to 2 decimal places.

Let ‘r’ be the radius of the tank

Given,

Height (h) = 6(Radius) = 6r dm

Cost of painting for 50 paisa or Rs 1/2 per dm2 = Rs 198 (Given)

⇒ 2πr(r+h) × 1/2 = 198

⇒ 2×22/7×r(r+6r) × 1/2 = 198

⇒ r = 3 dm

And, h = (6 x 3) dm = 18 dm

Now,

Volume of the tank = πr²h = 22/7×9×18 = 509.14 dm³
