Answer
Given,
A solid metal cuboid with dimensions 10 cm, 11 cm and 8 cm is melted and identical solid spheres, each of radius 1 cm, are formed. Let no. of spheres formed be n.
∴ Volume of metal cuboid = n × Volume of sphere
⇒ l × b × h = n ×
⇒ 10 × 11 × 8 = n ×
⇒ 880 = n ×
⇒ n =
⇒ n = 10 x 21 = 210.
Hence, option 2 is the correct option.

The given figure shows a toy made of very thin metal sheet. The toy has the hemisphere, a cylinder and a cone all of the same radius.

Assertion(A): The minimum area of metal sheet required is:
Curved surface area of conical part + curved surface area of cylinder part - curved surface area of hemispherical part
Reason(R): Metal sheet required = curved surface area of (conical part + cylindrical part + hemispherical part)
