The diameter and height of a cylindrical tower are 10 m and 21m, respectively. What will be the cost of painting its curved surface, at the rate of Rs.8 per m2?(Use π\pi = 227\frac{22}{7})

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. Rs.5,280.

Diameter = 10 m ad height = 21 m

Cost of painting = Rs.8/m2

The exterior curved surface area of Chimney = 2πrh = πdh

⇒ 22/7 × 10 × 21 = 660 m2

Cost of painting = 660 × 8 = Rs.5280
