A container opened from the top is made up of a metal sheet is in the form of a frustum of a cone of height 16 cm with radii of its lower and upper ends as 8 cm and 20 cm, respectively. Find the cost of the milk which can completely fill the container, at the rate, of Rs 20 per litre. Also find the cost of metal sheet used to make the container, if it costs Rs 8 per 100 cm^2 .

Consider two cylindrical rods of identical dimensions, one of rubber and the other of steel. Both the rods are fixed rigidily at one end of the roof. A mass M is attached to each of the free ends aat the centre of the rods

A long rod made of soft iron is fixed in a vertical position. If a strong magnet A is brought into contact with its upper end, as shown in Fig., then the rod becomes so strongly magnetised that its lower end can support several small objects. If the same magnet is brought in contact with the side of the rod, quite close to the lower end (Fig,), then there is no such strong magnetisation, and the same objects cannot be supported at the lower end of the rod. Explain why magnet A acts differently in the two cases.
