A. 2 p.m. on Tuesday B. 2 p.m.
on Wednesday
C. 3 p.m. on Thursday D. 1 p.m. on Friday
Answer & Explanation
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Time from 12 p.m. on Monday to 2 p.m. on the following Monday = 7 days 2 hours = 170 hours.
4 34
The watch gains 2+4 or min. in 170 hrs.
5 5
min.
34
Now, min. are gained in 170 hrs.

Watch is correct 2 days 2 hrs. after 12 p.m. on Monday i.e., it will be correct at 2 p.m. on
Wednesday.
Volume and Surface Area
Formulas
1. CUBOID
Let length = l, breadth = b and height = h units. Then
i. Volume = (l x b x h) cubic units.
ii. Surface area = 2(lb + bh + lh) sq. units.
iii. Diagonal = l2 + b2 + h2 units.
2. CUBE
Let each edge of a cube be of length a. Then,
i. Volume = a3 cubic units.
ii. Surface area = 6a2 sq. units.
iii. Diagonal = 3a units.
3. CYLINDER
Let radius of base = r and Height (or length) = h. Then,
i. Volume = ( r2h) cubic units.
ii. Curved surface area = (2 rh) sq. units.
iii. Total surface area = 2 r(h + r) sq. units.
4. CONE
Let radius of base = r and Height = h. Then,
i. Slant height, l = h2 + r2 units.
ii. Volume = r2h cubic units.
iii. Curved surface area = ( rl) sq. units.
iv. Total surface area = ( rl + r2) sq. units.
5. SPHERE
Let the radius of the sphere be r. Then,
i. Volume = r3 cubic units.
ii. Surface area = (4 r2) sq. units.
6. HEMISPHERE
Let the radius of a hemisphere be r. Then,
i. Volume = r3 cubic units.
ii. Curved surface area = (2 r2) sq. units.
iii. Total surface area = (3 r2) sq. units.
Note: 1 litre = 1000 cm3.
1. A right triangle with sides 3 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm is rotated the side of 3 cm to form a cone. The
volume of the cone so formed is:
A. 12 cm3 B. 15 cm3
C. 16 cm3 D. 20 cm3
Answer & Explanation
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Clearly, we have r = 3 cm and h = 4 cm.
1 1
Volume = r2h = x x 32 x 4 = 12 cm3.

2. In a shower, 5 cm of rain falls. The volume of water that falls on 1.5 hectares of ground is:
A. 75 cu. m B. 750 cu. m
C. 7500 cu. m D. 75000 cu. m
Answer & Explanation
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
1 hectare = 10,000 m2
So, Area = (1.5 x 10000) m2 = 15000 m2.
5 1
Depth = m = m.
100 20

3. A hall is 15 m long and 12 m broad. If the sum of the areas of the floor and the ceiling is equal to
the sum of the areas of four walls, the volume of the hall is:
A. 720 B. 900
C. 1200 D. 1800
Answer & Explanation
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
2(15 + 12) x h = 2(15 x 12)
180 20
h= m = m.
