Ex 12.2, 3
Gulab jamun, contains sugar syrup up to about 30% of its volume. Find approximately how much syrup would be found in 45 gulab jamuns, each shaped like a cylinder with two hemispherical ends with length 5 cm and diameter 2.8 cm (see figure)
Lets first find Volume of 1 gulab jamun
Since gulabjamun contains one cylinder and 2 hemispheres
Volume of gulab jamun
= Volume of cylinder + Volume of 2 hemispheres
Volume of cylinder
Diameter of cylinder = 2.8 cm
Radius of cylinder = (𝐷𝑖𝑎𝑚𝑒𝑡𝑒𝑟 )/2 = 2.8/2 = 1.4 cm
Here,
Diameter of hemisphere = 2.8 cm
Radius of hemisphere = (𝐷𝑖𝑎𝑚𝑒𝑡𝑒𝑟 )/2 = 2.8/2 = 1.4 cm
Now,
Height of cylinder + 2 × Radius of hemisphere = 5 cm
Height of cylinder = 5 – 2 × Radius of hemisphere
Height of cylinder = 5 – 2 × 1.4
Height of cylinder = 5 – 2.8
Height of cylinder = 2.2 cm
Now,
Volume of cylinder = 𝜋𝑟2ℎ
= 𝟐𝟐/𝟕 × (𝟏.𝟒)𝟐 × 𝟐.𝟐
= 22/7 × 1.4 × 1.4 × 2.2
= 22 × 0.2 × 1.4 × 2.2
= 13.55 cm3
Volume of hemisphere
Radius of hemisphere = 1.4 cm
Volume of hemisphere = 2/3 πr3
= 𝟐/𝟑×𝟐𝟐/𝟕×(𝟏.𝟒)𝟑
= 2/3 × 22/7 × 1.4 × 1.4 × 1.4
= 5.75 cm3
Thus,
Volume of 2 hemispheres = 2 × Volume of hemisphere
= 2 × 5.75
= 11.50 cm3
Now,
Volume of gulab jamun
= Volume of cylinder + Volume of 2 hemispheres
= 13.55 + 11.50
= 25.05 cm3
So,
Volume of 1 gulabjamun = 25.05 cm3
Volume of 45 gulabjamun = 45 × 25.05 cm3
We need to find quantity of syrup in 45 gulabjamun
It is given that quantity of syrup in gulabjamun is 30%
So,
Syrup in 45 gulabjamun = 30% × 45 × 25.05
= 30/100 × 45 × 24.5
= 338.185 cm3
= 338 cm3 (approx)
