Practice set 7.1 | Q 9 | Page 145

In the figure 7.12, a cylindrical
wrapper of flat tablets is shown.
The radius of a tablet is 7 mm and
its thickness is 5 mm. How many
such tablets are wrapped in the
wrapper ?

Answer:-

Radius of a tablet, r = 7 mm Thickness of a tablet, h = 5 mm Radius of cylindrical wrapper, R = 7 mm Height of wrapper (H) = 10 cm = 100 mm Let n be the number of tablets wrapped in the wrapper.

n = Volume of the cylindrical wrapper / Volume of each tablet n = (πR^2H) / (πr^2h) n = (7^2 x 100) / (7^2 x 5) = 20

Thus, 20 tablets are wrapped in the wrapper.

Solution
$$Radius space of space a space tablet, r = 7 space mm$$
$$Thickness space of space a space tablet, h = 5 space mm$$
$$Radius space of space cylindrical space wrapper, R =$$
$$frac{14}{2} = 7 space mm$$
$$Height space of space wrapper space (H) = 10 space cm = 10 times 10 space mm = 100 space mm$$
Let $$n$$ be the number of tablets wrapped in the wrapper.
$$n = frac{text{Volume of the cylindrical wrapper}}{text{Volume of each tablet}}$$
$$Rightarrow n = frac{pi R^2 H}{pi r^2 h}$$
$$Rightarrow n = frac{(7)^2 times 100}{(7)^2 times 5} = 20$$
Thus, 20 tablets are wrapped in the wrapper.
