Aman wants to get his spherical overhead water tank having a diameter of 7 m, painted. If the cost of painting is Rs 13 per square meter, find the cost of painting Aman's spherical overhead water tank. (Use π = 22/7)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Rs 2002

Diameter = 7 cm

The cost of painting is Rs 13 per square meter

The total surface of a sphere = 4πr2

Where, r = radius

According to the question;

⇒ TSA = 4 × 22/7 × (7/2)2

⇒ 154 cm2

Required cost of painting = 154 × 13 = Rs 2002
