Question : The radius of two spheres is in the ratio of 1 : 5. What is the ratio of the volume of the two spheres?

Option 1: 8 : 27

Option 2: 1 : 25

Option 3: 1 : 125

Option 4: 1 : 64

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 1 : 125

⇒ Volume of sphere 1 (V1​) = $\frac{4}{3}\pi k^{3}$
⇒ Volume of sphere 2 (V2) = $\frac{4}{3}\pi (5k)^{3}$ = $\frac{4}{3}\pi (125)k^{3}$
⇒ Ratio of volumes = $\frac{V1}{V2​}$

Option 3: 17,250

Option 4: 10,710

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Question : An inlet pipe can fill an empty tank in 140 hours, while an outlet pipe drains a filled tank in 63 hours. If 8 inlet pipes and y outlet pipes are opened simultaneously, when the tank is empty, then the tank gets filled in 105 hours. Find the value of y.

Option 1: 1

Option 2: 4

Option 3: 2

Option 4: 3

Team Careers360 16th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 3


Solution : Inlet pipe can fill in = 140 hours
Outlet pipe can drain in = 63 hours
LCM of 140 and 63 is 1260
Total work = 1260 units
Efficiency of inlet pipe = $\frac{1260}{140}$ = 9 units/hours
Efficiency of outlet pipe = $\frac{1260}{63}$ = 20
