In the given figure, a metal container is in the form of a cylinder surmounted by a hemisphere. The internal height of the cylinder is 7 m and the internal radius is 3.5 m. Calculate:
(i) the total area of the internal surface, excluding the base.
(ii) the internal volume of the container in m3.

Answer
Given,
Radius of cylindrical portion = Radius of hemispherical portion = r = 3.5 m
Height of cylinder, h = 7 m
(i) Area of internal surface = Surface area of cylinder + Surface area of hemisphere
= 2πrh + 2πr2
= 2πr(h + r)
= 2 × × 3.5(7 + 3.5)
= 2 × × 36.75
= 2 × 22 × 5.25
= 231 m2
Hence, the total area of the internal surface, excluding the base is 231 m2.
(ii) Internal volume of container = Volume of hemisphere + Volume of cylinder
Hence, the volume of container is 359.33 m3.
