  1. ML Aggarwal Sol Class 10 Maths chapter 17-33

    Let the radius of the hemisphere be r.

    Inner diameter = 2r

    Given greatest height equal to inner diameter.

    So total height of the hall = 2r

    Height of the hemispherical part = r

    Height of cylindrical area, h = 2r-r = r

    Capacity of the hall = Volume of cylindrical area + volume of hemispherical area

    = r2h + (2/3)r3

    = r3+ (2/3)r3 [∵h = r]

    = r(1+2/3)

    = r(3+2)/3

    = (5/3)r3

    Given capacity of hall = 48510 m3

    (5/3)r3= 48510

    (5/3)×(22/7)r3= 48510

    r3 = 48510×3×7/(22×5)

    r3 = 9261

    Taking cube root on both sides,

    r = 21

    Area of the floor = r2

    = (22/7)×212

    = (22×21×3

    = 1386 m2

    Hence the Area of the floor is 1386 m2 .
