0.69444h = h’

=30.55%


7) Answer: B

Area of base of cone = 38.5 = πr²

r = 3.5 cm

Vol. cone ⇒ ⅓ πr²h

154 = ⅓× 38.5h

h = 12 cm

ℓ = √(h2 + r2 )

ℓ = 12.5 cm

C.S.A. of cone = πr ℓ

= 22/7 × 3.5 × 12.5

= 11 × 12.5

= 137.5

If 2 cm is width of the canvas then total length required

= 137.5/2 = 68.75 cm


8) Answer: D

Vol. of sphere = 4/5 πr³

Radius of conical bullet = r’ = r/2
