∴ Surface area of solid = 75π × k2
= 75π × (200)2
= 75π × 40000 cm2
= 75π × m2
= 300π m2.
Hence, the surface area of solid = 300π m2.
(ii) Volume (V) = Volume of hemisphere + Volume of cylinder
= .
Substituting values we get :
∴ Volume of solid = 90π × k3
= 90π × (200)3
= 90π × 8000000
= 720000000π cm3
= m3
= 720π m3.
As, 1 m3 = 1000 litres
∴ Volume of solid = 720π × 1000 = 720000π litres.
Hence, the volume of solid = 720000π litres.

=
= (2 × 22 × 0.5 × 13.5) + 140
= 297 + 140
= 437 cm2.
Hence, total surface area of both the halves = 437 cm2.
(b) Total cost of painting the two halves = Total surface area × Rate
= 437 × 30
= ₹ 13,110.
Hence, total cost of painting the two halves = ₹ 13,110.
