A dome of a building is in the form of a hemisphere. From inside, it was whitewashed at the cost of Rs 498.96. If the rate of whitewashing is Rs 4 per square metre, find the : (i) Inside surface area of the dome (ii) Volume of the air inside the dome
Answers
Answer:
(i) We know that
Area whitewashed × Cost of white wash = Total cost
Area whitewashed ×2=498.96
Area whitewashed =
2
498.96
Area whitewashed =249.48 m
2
Now,
Area of whitewashed is curved surface area of hemisphere (as only walls are whitewashed, not floor)
Therefore,
Inner surface area of dome =249.48 m

(ii) Volume of air inside dome = Volume of hemisphere
