Q.From a rectangular tin sheet measuring 110 cm in length and 15 cm in width, a vertical cylindrical pipe of height 15 cm is to be made. What will be the diameter of the pipe? (a) 7 cm (b) 35 cm (c) 15 cm (d) 11.5 cm
Answer: B
The circumference of the vertical cylindrical pipe will be 110 cm. Let the radius be \(r\) cm. ∴ \(2\pi r = 110\) i.e., \(2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times r = 110\) i.e., \(r = 110 \times \frac{7}{22 \times 2}\) i.e., \(r = \frac{35}{2}\) ∴ The diameter of the pipe will be \(\frac{35}{2} \times 2\) cm = 35 cm.
