Answer: Option C. -> 30%
Volume of the sphere :
$$ = \left[ {\frac{4}{3}\pi {{\left( {10} \right)}^3}} \right]{\text{ c}}{{\text{m}}^3}$$
Surface area of the sphere :
$$ = \left[ {4\pi {{\left( {10} \right)}^2}} \right]{\text{ c}}{{\text{m}}^2}$$
∴ Required percentage :
$$\eqalign{
& = \left[ {\frac{{4\pi {{\left( {10} \right)}^2}}}{{\frac{4}{3}\pi {{\left( {10} \right)}^3}}}} \times 100 \right]\% \cr

Answer: Option B. -> 288 cm3
Let the length of base be 3a cm and breadth be 2a cm
Total surface area of prism :
= [Perimeter of base × height] + [2 × Area of base]
= [2 (3a + 2a) × 12 + 2 × 3a × 2a] sq.cm
= (120a + 12a2) sq.cm
According to the question,
120a + 12a2 = 288
⇒ a2 + 10a = 24
⇒ a2 + 10a - 24 = 0
⇒ a2 + 12a - 2a - 24 = 0
⇒ a (a + 12) - 2 (a + 12) = 0
⇒ (a - 2)(a + 12) = 0
⇒ a = 2 because a $$ \ne $$ -12
∴ Volume of prism :
= Area of base × Height
= (3a × 2a × 12)cu.cm
= 72a2 cu.cm
= (72 × 2 × 2)cu.cm
= 288 cu.cm
