The cost of painting the total outside surface of a closed cylindrical oil tank at 50 paise per square decimetre is Rs 198. The height of the tank is 6 times the radius of the base of the tank. Find the volume corrected to 2 decimal places. |

Answer» Let ‘r’ be the radius of the tank. As per given statement: Height (h) = 6(Radius) = 6r dm Cost of painting for 50 paisa or Rs \(\frac{1}{2}\) per dm2 = Rs 198 ⇒ 2πr(r + h) x \(\frac{1}{2}\) = 198 ⇒ 2 x \(\frac{22}{7}\) x r(r + 6r) × \(\frac{1}{2}\) = 198 ⇒ r = 3 dm And, h = (6 x 3) dm = 18 dm Now, Volume of the tank = πr2h = \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 9 x 18 = 509.14 dm3 |
