Consider the following statements regarding the cylinder and the hemispherical solid? I. If the height of a cylinder is tripled, curved surface area becomes eight times. II. If the radius of a hemispherical solid is doubled, its total surface area becomes four times.
Consider the following statements regarding the cylinder and the hemispherical solid? I. If the height of a cylinder is tripled, curved surface area becomes eight times. II. If the radius of a hemispherical solid is doubled, its total surface area becomes four times. Correct Answer Only II is correct.
Given:
Height of the cylinder is tripled and, curved surface area becomes eight times.
Radius of the hemisphere is doubled and, total surface area becomes four times.
Concept:
Let 'h' be the height of the cylinder.
Curved surface area of the cylinder = 2πrh
Let 'r' be the radius of the hemisphere.
Total surface area of the hemisphere = 3πr²
Calculations:
As, h = 3h,
Then its curved surface area = 2πr(3h)
= 6πrh
So, the curved surface area of the cylinder becomes 'six' times.
Statement I is incorrect.
As, r = 2r,
Then its total surface area = 3π(2r)2
= 3π(4r2)
= 4 × (3πr2)
So, the total surface area of the hemisphere becomes 'four' times.
Statement II is correct.
∴ Only statement II is correct.
