The rectangular base of the prism, shown shaded in the diagram, is horizontal. The container is completely full of water.

Tuah is going to use a pump to empty the water from the container so that the volume of water in the container decreases at a constant rate.

The pump starts to empty water from the container at 10 30 and at 12 00 the water level in the container has dropped by 20 cm.

Find the time at which all the water has been pumped out of the container.

24 The diagram shows a frustum of a cone, and a sphere.

The frustum, shown shaded in the diagram, is made by removing the small cone from the large cone. The small cone and the large cone are similar. Diagram NOT accurately drawn

Small cone h cm

r cm r cm

Large cone kh cm

kr cm

The height of the small cone is h cm and the radius of the base of the small cone is r cm. The height of the large cone is kh cm and the radius of the base of the large cone is kr cm. The radius of the sphere is r cm.

The sphere is divided into two hemispheres, each of radius r cm.

Solid A is formed by joining one of the hemispheres to the frustum. The plane face of the hemisphere coincides with the upper plane face of the frustum, as shown in the diagram below.

Solid B is formed by joining the other hemisphere to the small cone that was removed from the large cone. The plane face of the hemisphere coincides with the plane face of the base of the small cone, as shown in the diagram below.
