(   3.14 ) a. 86 min b. 74 min c. 93 min d. 113 min Sol: Correct option is (c) Volume =  r 2 h  3.14  2  2  22  276.32m3 No of minute = 276.32m3  92.1min utes  93min utes 3m3 / min ute 62. Two cylinders of same height and radius 3 cm and 4 cm are containing water inside them. This water is to be poured into a new cylinder of same height but different radius. What should be the radius of new cylinder? a. 5 cm b. 3 cm c. 2 cm d. 7 cm Sol: Correct option is (a) Let height of all cylinders be (h) Volume of two cylinders combined =  (3)2 h   (4) 2 h   25h  25 h Volume of new cylinder =  r 2 h   r 2 h  25 h  r 2  25  r  5 cm 63. Water contained in the cone of radius 4 cm and height 3 cm is to be poured into a cylinder of height 1 cm. What should be the radius of the cylinder? a. 2 cm b. 4 cm c. 8 cm d. 1 cm Sol: Correct option is (b) 1 2 r h 3 Volume of cone = 1 =  (4) 2 h  16 3 Volume of cylinder =  r 2 h   r 2 h  16  r 2 h  16  r 2 (1)  16  r  4cm
