Right Answer is:

SOLUTION

Solution:

As per the parameters given in the question, we have

Radius of the hemispherical end (say r) = 7 cm

Height of the solid = (h + 2r) = 104 cm

The curved surface area of the cylinder (say S) = 2 πr h

S = 2 π ( 7 ) h                                …….E.1

h+2r=104

h=104(2×7)

h = 90 cm

Put the value of h in E.1, we will get

S = 2 π (7) (90)

S = 3948.40 cm2

So, the curved surface area of the cylinder = S = 3948.40 cm2

Curved surface area of the two hemisphere (say SA) = 2 (2 πr2)

SA = 22π (7)2

SA = 615.75 cm2

Therefore, the total curved surface area of the solid = Curved surface area of the cylinder + Curved surface area of the two hemisphere = TSA

TSA = S + SA

TSA = 3948.40 + 615.75

TSA = 4571.8cm2 = 45.718 dm2

The cost of polishing the 1 dm2 surface of the solid is Rs. 15

So, the cost of polishing the 45.718 dm2 surface of the solid = 10 45.718 = Rs. 457.18

Hence,

The cost of polishing the whole surface of the solid is Rs. 457.18.
