MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 13 Surface Areas and Volumes Ex 13.5

Assume π = \(\frac{22}{7}\), unless stated otherwise.

Question 1.
A matchbox measures 4 cm x 2.5 cm. x 1.5 cm. What will be the volume of a packet containing 12 such boxes?
Solution:
Measures of matchbox (cuboid) is 4 cm x 2.5 cm x 1.5 cm
l = 4 cm,
b = 2.5 cm and
h = 1.5 cm
∴ Volume of matchbox = (l x b) x h
= [4 cm x 2.5 cm] x 1.5 cm³
= 4 x \(\frac{25}{10}\) x \(\frac{25}{10}\) cm³ = 15 cm³
Volume of 12 boxes =12 x 15 cm³ = 180 cm³

Question 2.
A cuboidal water tank is 6 m long, 5 m wide and 4.5 m deep. How many litres of water can it hold? (1 m³ = 1000 l)
Solution:
Here, Length (l) = 6 m
Breadth (b) = 5 m
Depth (h) = 4.5 m
Capacity = l x b x h = 6 x 5 x 4.5 m³
= 6 x 5 x \(\frac{45}{10}\) m³ = 3 x 45
= 135 m³
∴ 1 m³ can hold 1000 l.
∴ 135 m³ can hold (135 x 1000 l = 135000 l) of water.
∴ The required amount of water in the tank = 135000 l.

Question 3.
A cuboidal vessel is 10 m long and 8 m wide. How high must it be made to hold 380 cubic meters of a liquid?
Solution:
Volume of the vessel = l x b x h
380 = 10 x 8 x h
380 = 80 x h
h = \(\frac{380}{80}\) = 4.75m.

Question 4.
Find the cost of digging a cuboidal pit 8 m long, 6 m broad and 3 m deep at the rate of ₹ 30 per m³.
Solution:
Volume of cuboidal pit = 8 x 6 x 3 = 144 m³
Cost of digging = 144 x 30 = ₹ 4320.

Question 5.
The capacity of a cuboidal tank is 50000 liters of water. Find the breadth of the tank, it its length and depth are respectively 2.5 m and 10 m.
Solution:
Capacity of cuboidal tank = \(\frac{50000}{1000}\) m³ = 50 m³
Volume of cuboidal tank = l x b x h
50 = 2.5 x 6 x 10
50 = 25b
Breadth of tank, b = \(\frac{50}{25}\) = 2 m.

Question 6.
A village, having a population of4000, requires 150 liters of water per head per day. It has a tank measures 20 m x 15 m x 6m. For how many days will the water of this tank last?
Solution:
Volume of water required for the village per day = \(\frac{4000×150}{1000}\)
Volume of tank = 20 x 15 x 6 = 1800 m³
No. of days = \(\frac{1800}{600}\) = 3.

Question 7.
A godown measures 60 m x 25 m x 10 m. Find the maxium number of wooden crates each measuring 1.5 m x 1.25 m x 0.5 m that can be stored in the godown.
Solution:
Volume of godown = (60 x 25 x 10) m³ = 15000 m³
Volume of one wooden crate = (1.5 x 1.25 x 0.5) m³ = 0.9375 m³
No. of wooden crates which can be stored in the godown

= 16000.

Question 8.
A solid cube of side 12 cm is cut into eight cubes of equal volume. What will be the side of the new cubk? Also, find the ratio between their surface area.
Solution:
Volume of cube of side 12 cm = (12 x 12 x 12) cm³
Let V be volume of new cube.
Volume of cube of side 12 cm = 8 x volume of new cube
12 x 12 x 12 = 8 x V
V = \(\frac{12x12x12}{8}\) = \(\frac{12x12x12}{2x2x2}\) = 216 cm³
Let a be the side of new cube
a³ = 216 = 6³
a = 6 cm
TSA of cube of side 12 = 6 x (12)²
TSA of new cube = 6 x (6)²

Question 9.
Anver 3 m deep and 40 m wide is flowing at the rate of 2 km per hour. How much water will fall into the sea in a minute?
Solution:
b = 40 m,
h = 3 m
V = 2 km/hr
= \(\frac{2×1000}{60}\) = \(\frac{100}{3}\) m/min
Volume of water coming out of the river per min = b x h x V
= \(\frac{100}{3}\) x 3 x 40 = 4000 m³.

Assume = \(\frac{22}{7}\) unless stated otherwise.

Question 1.
The circumference of the base of a cylindrical vessel is 132 cm and its height is 25 cm. How many litres of water can it hold? (1000 cm³ = 1l)
Solution:
Circumference of base, C =132 cm ,
h = 25 cm
C = 2πr
132 = 2 x \(\frac{22}{7}\) x r
r = \(\frac{132×7}{2×22}\) = 21 cm
Volume of cylinder =πr²h
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 21 x 21 x 25 = 34650 cm³
= \(\frac{34650}{1000}\)

Question 2.
The 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 g.
Solution:

Inner diameter
d₁ = 24 cm ⇒ r₁ = 12 cm
Outer diameter, d₂ = 28 cm ⇒ r₂ = 14 cm
Volume of wood in the piple = πr₂²h – πr₁²h
πh(r₂² – r₁²) = \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 35(14² – 12²)
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 35 x 52 = 5720 cm³
Mass of pipe = 0.6 x 5720 = 3432 gm
= 3.432 kg.

Question 3.
A soft drink is available in two packs –

1. a tin can with a rectangular base of length 5 cm and width 4 cm, having a height of 15 cm and
2. a plastic cylinder with circular base of diameter 7 cm and height 10 cm. Which container has greater capacity and by how much?

Solution:
1. Volume of cuboidal can = (5 x 4 x 15) = 300 cm³

2. Volume of cylindrical can = πr²h = \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 3.5 x 3.5 x 10
= 385 cm²
Capacity of cylindrical can is more than the cuboidal can by 85 cm2.

Question 4.
If the lateral surface of a cylinder is 94.2 cm2 and its height is 5 cm, then find

1. radius of its base
2. its volume. (Use π = 3.14)

Solution:
1. CSA of cylinder = 94.2 cm²
2πrh = 94.2 cm²
2 x 3.14 x 5 = 94.2 cm²
r = \(\frac{94.2}{2×3.14×5}\) = 3 cm
Volume of the cylinder = πr²h
= 3.14 x 3 x 3 x 5
= 3.14 x 45 = 141.3 cm³

Question 5.
It costs ₹ 2200 to paint the inner curved surface of a cylindrical vessel 10 m deep. If the cost of painting is at the rate of ₹ 20 per m², find

1. inner curved surface area of the vessel
2. radius of the base
3. Capacity of the Vessel.

1. Inner curved surface area =

2. Let r be the radius of the base ICSA = 2πrh
110 = 2 x \(\frac{22}{7}\) x r x 10 r
= 1.75 m

3. Capacity of vessel = πr²h = \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 1.75 x 1.75 x 10
= 96.25 m³.

Question 6.
The capacity of a closed cylindrical vessel of height 1 m is 15.4 litres. How many square metres of metal sheet would be needed to make it?
Solution:
h = 1 m
V = 15.4l
= \(\frac{15.4}{1000}\)m³ = 0.0154 m³
Volume of the vessel = πr²h
0. 0154 = \(\frac{22}{7}\) x r² x 1
∴ r² = \(\frac{0.0154×7}{22}\)
⇒ r² = 0.0049
∴ r = 0.07 m
Area of metal sheet required = 2nr (h + r)
= 2x \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 0.07(1 + 0.07)
= 0.4708 m².

Question 7.
A lead pencil consists of a cylinder ofvyood with a solid cylinder of graphite filled in the interior. The diameter of the pencil is 7 mm and the diameter of the graphite is 1 mm. If the length of the pencil is 14 cm, find the volume of the wood and that of the graphite.
Solution:
Volume of the pencil = πr²h
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 3.5 x 3.5 x 140 = 5390 mm³
Volume of graphite = πr²h
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 0.5 x 0.5 x 140 = 110 mm³
Volume of wood = Volume of pencil – Volume of graphite
= 5390 – 110
= 5280 mm³
=5.28 cm³.

MP Board Class 9th General English Grammar Reporting

अंग्रेजी में किसी के कहे हुए वचन को दो प्रकार से प्रकट कर सकते हैं

(1) यदि किसी व्यक्ति के वही शब्द लिखे जाएँ जो उसने कहे हैं और उनमें किसी प्रकार की तब्दीली न की जाए तो उसे Direct Speech कहते हैं। जैसे

Rama said, “She is a good girl.”
यहाँ बोलने वाले के ठीक-ठीक वही शब्द दिए गए हैं।

Direct Speech
में निम्न बातों का ध्यान रखना चाहिए

(a) बोलने वाले के असली शब्दों को inverted commas (“…”) में लिखते हैं।
(b) बोलने वाले के असली शब्दों को Reported Speech कहते हैं।
(c) जो Verb (क्रिया) ‘Reported Speech’ के सम्बन्ध में कुछ बताता है उसे Reporting verb कहते हैं।

(2) जब हम बोलने वाले के असली शब्दों का प्रयोग नहीं करते परन्तु उनका तात्पर्य या अर्थ लिखते हैं तो उसे Indirect Speech कहते हैं जैसे
Rama said that she was a good girl.
Indirect speech में निम्न बातों का ध्यान रखना चाहिए

Rama said that she was a good girl.
Indirect speech में निम्न बातों का ध्यान रखना चाहिए

(a) इसमें कोई inverted commas नहीं होते। बोलने वाले के ठीक वही शब्द नहीं लिखे जाते। उनमें कुछ परिवर्तन किया जाता है।
(b) Reporting verb के बाद कोई comma नहीं लगाया जाता।
(c) Reported Speech À ved Conjunction that का प्रयोग होता है।
(d) Reported speech की क्रिया को बदलते हैं।
जब हम Direct speech को Indirect speech में बदलते हैं तो अग्रांकित बातों का ध्यान रखते हैं;

जैसे-

(1) Said को told में बदल देते हैं। Persons में परिवर्तन निम्न रूप में करते हैं।
I person के Pronoun (I, we, us, our) का परिवर्तन Direct Speech के Subject (कर्ता) के Person के अनुसार होता है II Person के Pronoun (You, Your) का परिवर्तन Object के अनुसार होता है तथ III Person के Pronoun (he, she, it, her) में कोई भी परिवर्तन नहीं होता है

(2) निकटता प्रकट करने वाले शब्दों में परिवर्तन निम्नलिखित रूप से किया जाता है-

• Now – then
• This – that
• Ago – before
• Tonight – that night
• Last night – the previous night
• Here – there
• these – those
• A year ago – a year before
• Today – that day
• Tomorrow – the next day
• Yesterday – the day before
• Just – then
• Come here – go there
• Next week – the following week

(3) Tense (काल) परिवर्तन-
(a) Reporting Verb के Present या Future Tense में होने पर Reported verb के Tense में कोई परिवर्तन नहीं होता।

(b) Reporting verb के Past Tense में होने पर Reported Verb के Tense में परिवर्तन होता है-

(i) Simple Present का Simple Past हो जाता है।
He said, “She works hard.”
He said that she worked hard.

(ii) Present Continuous का Past Continuous हो जाता है जैसे-
He said, “She is reading a book.”

MP Board Class 9th English Solutions

MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 13 Surface Areas and Volumes Ex 13.3

Assume π = \(\frac{22}{7}\), unless stated otherwise.

Question 1.
Diameter of the base of a cone is 10.5 cm and its slant height is 10 cm. Find its curved surface area.
Solution:
Here, diameter of the base = 10.5 cm
Radius (r) = \(\frac{10.5}{2}\)
Slant height (l) = 10 cm
Curved surface area of the cone = πrl
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) x \(\frac{10.5}{2}\) x 10 cm²
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) x \(\frac{10.5}{20}\) x 10 cm²
= 11 x 15 x 1 cm² = 165 cm²

Question 2.
Find the total surface area of a cone, if its slant height is 21 m and diameter of its base is 24 m.
Solution:
Here, diameter = 24 m
Radius (r) = \(\frac{24}{2}\) m = 12m
Slant height (l) = 21 m
Total surface area = πr (r + l)

Question 3.
Curved surface area of a cone is 308 cm² and its slant height is 14 cm. Find:

1. radius of the base and
2. total surface area of the cone.

Solution:
Here, curved surface area = 308 cm²
Slant height (l) = 14 cm

1. Let the radius of the base be ‘r’ cm.
πrl = 308
\(\frac{22}{7}\) x r x 14 = 308
r = \(\frac{308×7}{22×14}\) = 7 cm
Thus, the required radius of the cone is 7 cm.

2. base area = πr² = \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 7² cm.
and curved surface area = 308 cm² given
∴ Total surface area = [Curved surface area] + [Base area]
= 308 cm² + 154 cm² = 462 cm²

Question 4.
A conical tent is 10 m high and the radius of its base is 24 m. Find

(i) slant height of the tent.
(ii) cost of the canvas required to make the tent, if the cost of 1 m² canvas is ₹ 70.

Solution:
h = 10 m
r =24m

Cost of canvas = CSA x Rate of canvas
= 1961.14 x 70
= ₹ 137279.8
= ₹ 137280.

Question 5.
What length of tarpaulin 3 m wide will be required to make conical tent of height 8 m and base radius 6 m? Assume that the extra length of material that will be required for stitching margins and wastage in cutting is approximately 20 cm. (Use π = 3.14)
Solution:

h = 8m
r = 6m
Width of tarpaulin = 3 m
Extra length required = 20 cm = 0.2 m

CSA of conical tent = πrl
= 3.14 x 6 x 10 = 188.4 m²
CSA of conical tent = Area of tarpaulin
188.4 = l x 3 (Here l = length of tarpaulin)
l = \(\frac{188.4}{3}\)
Total length of tarpaulin required = 62.8 + 0.2 = 63 m

Question 6.
The slant height and base diameter of a conical tomb are 25 m and 14 m respectively. Find the cost of white-washing its curved surface at the rate of ₹ 210 per 100 m².
Solution:
l = 25m
d = 14m
r = 7m
Rate of white washing = ₹ 210 per 100 m²
= \(\frac{210}{100}\) = ₹ 2.10 per m²
CSA of conical tomb = πrl
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 7 x 25 = 550 m²
Cost of white washing = Rate x CSA
= 2.10 x 550 (Rate per m² = \(\frac{220}{100}\))
= ₹ 1155

Question 7.
A joker’s cap is in the form of a right circular cone of base radius 7 cm and height 24 cm. Find the area of the sheet required to make 10 such caps.
Solution:
r = 7 cm
h = 24 cm

Area of sheet required = CSA of 10 such caps = 550 x 10 = 5500 cm².

Question 8.
A bus stop is barricaded from the remaining part of the road, by using 50 hollow cones made of recycled cardboard. Each cone has a base diameter of 40 cm and height 1 m. If the outer side of each of the cones is to be painted and the cost of painting is ₹ 12 per m² what will be cost of painting all these cones? (Use π = 3.14 and take \(\sqrt{1.04}\) =1.02).
Solution:
d = 40 cm
r = 20 cm = 0.20 m
h = l m
Rate = ₹ 12 per m²

= 1.02
CSA of cone = 3.14 x 0.2 x 1.02 = 0.64m²
Total area of 50 hollow cones= 50 x 0.64 = 32 m²
Cost of painting = 32 x 12 = ₹ 384
(Rate of painting = ₹ 12/m²)

MP Board Class 9th Maths Solutions

MP Board Class 9th General English Grammar Subject-Verb Concord

किसी sentence में जब subject का verb के साथ सही तालमेल होता है तभी वाक्य शुद्ध होता है। अर्थात् subject के वचन (number) तथा पुरुष (Person) के अनुसार ही verb में आवश्यक परिवर्तन किया जाना चाहिए।

जैसे-
Bird is flying in the sky.
Birds are flying in the sky.
I was singing
They were singing.

इस प्रकार के तालमेल के लिए निम्नलिखित नियम हैं
(1) दो या उससे अधिक Singular subject and से जोड़े जाएँ तो उनके साथ प्रायः Plural का verb आता है। जैसे
(i) Sita and Gita are twins.
(ii) You and your sister do this job well.

(2) यदि दो singular nouns (संज्ञाएँ) एक ही व्यक्ति या वस्तु का बोध कराती हैं, तो वहाँ singular verb का प्रयोग होता है। जैसे
(i) You and I am wrong.
(ii) My brother and guide has come.

(3) अगर singular कर्ता से पहले Each या Every का प्रयोग होता है तो singular verb का प्रयोग होता है। जैसे
(i) Every day brings hope.
(ii) Each student is prepared.

(4) Either….or, neither…..nor, के बाद हमेशा singular verb आती है। जैसे-
(i) Neither is he happy nor sad.
(ii) Either Ram or Shyam has done this work.

(5) यदि कर्ता को or, nor से जोड़ा जाए और वचन भिन्न हो तो बहुवचन की क्रिया (verb) का प्रयोग होता है। जैसे
(i) Either the boy or his friends have done this.

(6) Collective Noun के साथ पूरे समूह का भाव व्यक्त करने के लिए एकवचन क्रिया (verb) का प्रयोग करते हैं। परन्तु अगर एकवचन क्रिया का बोध कराना हो तो Plural verb का प्रयोग करते हैं। जैसे
(i) The police were chasing the thief.
(ii) The committee has decided this.

(7) जो Noun देखने में बहुवचन लगते हैं पर भाव में एकवचन ही होते हैं उनके साथ singular verb का प्रयोग करते हैं। जैसे
The wages of sin is death.

(8) कुछ Noun देखने में Singular लगते हैं परन्तु उनका अर्थ Plural होता है। उनके साथ Plural verb का प्रयोग करते हैं। जैसे
People are sad.

(9) कभी-कभी हम Verb का निकटतम Plural Subject के साथ मेल कर देते हैं। इस तरह वास्तविक subject की अनदेखी हो जाती है। हमें इस गलती से सावधान रहना चाहिए। जैसे-
(i) Neither of the women was present.
(ii) The quality of the oranges was good.

(10) Plural Noun जो किसी देश का नाम है या किताब का नाम है उसके बाद singular verb का प्रयोग होता है। जैसे
(i) The United States has a strong army.
(ii) The Gathering is a good novel.

Warm Regards. Hope you are fine there. I am also fine here. You might be worried about me since I am residing in hostel. I wish to inform you that now I am settled here.

The hostel life is quite different from that at home. It is quite more disciplined. We have to wake up early in the morning and take care of our things -ourselves, do everything ourselves. My room mate is also very good and other boys in the hostel are also very co-operative. There are fixed timings of breakfast, lunch and dinner. The food that is served is of good quality. But I miss the taste of mom’s food. I miss home and everyone a lot. But I have adjusted here. Please don’t worry about me.

Give my regards to mom and love to Chhotu.

Dear Himanshu,
Hope you are doing well there. Today I have received a letter from mother. She has also sent me your progress report. Though you are doing well in studies, but you are.not taking part in games. That is the reason that you are weak in health. I advise you to exercise regularly and take active part in games and sports. There is a saying ‘All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy’.

Q. 4. Write a letter to the district magistrate about nuisance caused by the use of loud speakers.
Answer:
31, AshishNagar
Sohagnagar
1st April, 20….

To,
The District Magistrate.
Sohagnagar

Sir,
I want to draw your attention to the nuisance caused by the use of loud-speakers. I am a student of graduation and my examinations are near. It is a time when all the students are busy day and night preparing for the examinations. Their success depends upon the proper use of their time and the concentration of their minds. It is regrettable that majority of citizens do not realise the importance of this time for students. They enjoy full liberty to use loud-speakers at their highest pitch to celebrate every occasion that comes to their hands. The result is that we are unable to make preparations in the right way.

I therefore request you to kindly impose a ban on the use of loud-speakers for the period of University Examinations and punish those who are found guilty.

Thanking you.
Yours faithfully
