Question:

Ahemispherical bowl made of iron has inner diameter 84 cm. Find the cost of tin plating it on the inside at the rate of ₹21 per 100 cm2 (take $\pi =\frac{22}{7}$) correct to two places of decimal.

Options:

₹2,328.48

₹2,425.48

₹2,425.60

₹2,355.48

Correct Answer:

₹2,328.48

Explanation:

We know that,

Curved Surface area of Hemisphere = 2πr2

Inner Diameter = 84 cm

Cost of tin plating it on the inside = Rs. 21 per cm2.

Inner Diameter = 84 cm

then, Inner Radius = 42 cm

Curved Surface area of Hemisphere =  = 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 422 = 2 × 22 × 6 × 42 = 11088 cm2

The cost of tin-plating 100 cm2  = Rs. 21

The cost of tin-plating 1 cm2  = \(\frac{21}{100}\)

The cost of tin-plating 11088 cmarea of the bowl = \(\frac{21}{100}\) × 11088 = Rs. 2328.48
