a cylinderical roller rolls over 400 times to completely cover a sports ground. if the length of the roller is 3.5m and it's radius is 1.4m, find the area of the field
Answers
Answer:
If the length of roller radius is 1.4 and length is 3.5 then the area of the field is 12320 unit square.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given dimensions of the cylindrical roller:
Length, h = 3.5 unit
Radius, r = 1.4 unit
We know that,
[The distance travelled by the roller in 1 roll] = [Curved surface area of the cylinder] = 2πrh
So, the distance travelled by the roller when it rolls for 1 time = 2 * \frac{22}{7}
7
22
* 1.4 * 3.5 = 30.8 unit square.
Now, it is given that the cylindrical roller rolls for 400 times to completely cover the sports ground.
Therefore, we get
The area covered by the roller in rolling for 400 times will be,
= 400 * [distance travelled by the roller when it rolls for 1 time]
= 400 * 30.8
= 12320 unit square
Thus, the area of the sports field is 12320 square unit.
