Q1. Find the volume of a cuboid of length 4 cm, breadth 2 cm and height 3 cm?
Ans: The volume of a cuboid can be calculated using the formula:
Given the dimensions:
Substituting the values into the formula:
Thus, the volume of the cuboid is 24 cu cm.
Q2. A water tank has length 9 cm, breadth 7 cm and height 5 cm. How many cubic metre of water can it hold?
Ans: Given the dimensions of the water tank:
The volume of the tank can be calculated using the formula: Volume = l × b × h = 9 cm × 7 cm × 5 cm = 315 cubic centimetres (cu cm).
To convert this volume into cubic metres, we use the conversion factor where 1 cubic metre equals 1,000,000 cubic centimetres: Therefore, the volume in cubic metres is: Volume in cubic metres = 315 cu cm / 1,000,000 = 0.000315 cubic metres.
Q3. Find the volume of a cuboid of side 8cm x 6 cm x 5 cm and a cube of side 9 cm.
Ans: The volume of a cuboid can be calculated using the formula: Volume of a cuboid = length (l) × breadth (b) × height (h) For the given cuboid:
Thus, the volume is: Volume of a cuboid = 8 cm × 6 cm × 5 cm = 240 cm³
For the cube, the volume can be calculated using the formula: Volume of a cube = side × side × side For the cube:
Therefore, the volume is: Volume of a cube = 9 cm × 9 cm × 9 cm = 729 cm³ In conclusion, the cuboid has a volume of 240 cm³, while the cube has a greater volume of 729 cm³.
Q4. A 2 rupee coin weighs 6g. What is the weight of a sack with:
(a) 1500 coins?
(b) 3000 coins?
Ans: Weight of a two-rupee coin = 6 g
Q5. The length, breadth and height of the inside of a rectangular box are 100 cm, 80 cm and 60 cm. How many centimeter cubes can be fitted in that box?
Ans: Given the dimensions of the rectangular box:
The volume of the box can be calculated using the formula: Volume = l × b × h = 100 cm × 80 cm × 60 cm = 480,000 cubic centimetres (cu cm). Therefore, this box can hold 480,000 cubic centimetres, which means 480,000 unit cubes of 1 cm³ can fit inside it.
Q6. A brick is 24 cm long, 14 cm wide and 10 cm high. Find the space occupied by 500 such bricks?
Ans: Given the dimensions of the brick:
The volume of one brick can be calculated using the formula: Volume = l × b × h = 24 cm × 14 cm × 10 cm = 3360 cm³. To find the space occupied by 500 such bricks, we multiply the volume of one brick by the number of bricks: Total Volume = 500 × 3360 cm³ = 1680000 cm³. Thus, the space occupied by 500 bricks is 1680000 cm³.
Q7. The volume of 6 marbles is 5 ml. Then find the volume of
(a) 24 such marbles
(b) 30 such marbles.
Ans:
Since 6 marbles have a total volume of 5 ml, we can find the volume of one marble by dividing:
Since one marble has a volume of 5/6 ml, the volume of 24 marbles is:
Similarly, for 30 marbles:
Q8. A match box measure 6 cm x 5 cm x 4 cm. Find its volume?
Ans: The volume of a matchbox can be calculated using the formula:
For the given matchbox dimensions:
Substituting the values into the formula:
Thus, the volume of the matchbox is 120 cubic centimetres.
Q9. Find the volume of a cube whose edge is 15cm long?
Ans: The volume of a cube can be calculated using the formula:
For a cube, all edges are equal, so we can simplify this to:
Given that the length of each edge is 15 cm, the calculation becomes:
Therefore, the volume of the cube is 3375 cubic centimetres.
Q10. How many cubes of side 5 cm can be packed in a box of 30 cm x 25 cm x 20 cm?
Ans: To determine how many cubes with a side length of 5 cm can fit into a box with dimensions 30 cm x 25 cm x 20 cm, we first calculate the volume of the box.
