SSC GD 2023 PYQ — Question 48

SSC GD Constable (English) - 23 Jan 2023 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q48

Find the volume of a right circular cylinder whose curved surface area is 1012 cm2 and whose circumference of the base is 22 cm. (Use π = 22/7)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 1771 cm3.

Circumference of the base = 2πr

⇒ 2πr = 22

⇒ 2 × 22/7 × r = 22

⇒ r = 7/2 = 3.5 cm

C.S.A of the right circular cylinder = 2πrh

⇒ 2πrh = 1012

⇒ 2 × 22/7 × 3.5 × h = 1012

⇒ h = (1012 × 7)/(2 × 22 × 3.5)

⇒ h = 46 cm

The volume of the cylinder = πr2h = 22/7 × 3.5 × 3.5 × 46 = 1771 cm3
