    The value of a coin varies directly to the square of its radius, when its thickness is constant. The radius of a coin is 1.5 cm and its value is Rs 2. What will be the radius of a coin, if its value is Rs 5?

    A)  2.4 cm           

    B)  2.6 cm

    C)  3.4 cm           

    D)         4.8 cm

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[V\propto {{r}^{2}}\]  \[\Rightarrow \]   \[V=K{{r}^{2}}\] \[2=K\times {{(1.5)}^{2}}\Rightarrow \,K=\frac{2}{2.25}\] \[K=\frac{8}{9}\] Again,   \[5=\frac{8}{9}\times {{r}^{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{r}^{2}}=\frac{5\times 9}{8}\] \[\therefore \]      \[r=\frac{3}{2}\times \sqrt{\frac{5}{2}}\] \[=1.5\times \sqrt{2.5}=1.5\times 1.6=2.4\,cm\] Hence, required radius = 2.4 cm
