SSC CGL - 13 April 2022 - Shift 3 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q60

The curved surface area of a right circular cylinder is 616 cm2 and the area of its base is 38.5 cm2. What is the volume (in cm3) of the cylinder?( take π = 227\frac{22}{7})

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 1078

Concept Used :

1. CSA of right circular cylinder = 2πrh2\pi rh 

2. Area of base = πr2\pi r^2 

3. Volume of cylinder = πr2h\pi r^2 h 

Solution:

Given that the CSA of cylinder = 616 cm2 ,

                  The area of the base = 38.5 cm2

Now, 

Area of the base = πr2\pi r^2

⇒ 38.5 = 22/7 × r2

⇒ r2 = 49/4

⇒ r = 7/2 cm

Also, CSA of cylinder = 2πrh2\pi rh  

       ⇒ 616 = 2 × 22/7 × 7/2 × h

       ⇒ h = 28 cm

Now, volume of cylinder = πr2h\pi r^2 h 

⇒ 22/7 × 7/2 × 7/2 × 28 

⇒ 49 × 22 = 1078.

Hence the required volume of cylinder is 1078 cm3.
