Step-by-step explanation:
Length of Capsule (l) = 14 mm
Diameter of Capsule = Diameter of Cylinder =5 mm
Radius =
2
Diameter
Therefore, Radius of each Hemisphere = Radius of Cylinder = r =
2
5
= 2.5 mm
Length of Cylinder = AB = Total length of Capsule - Radius of left Hemisphere - Radius of Right Hemisphere
=14−2.5−2.5=9 mm
Surface Area of Capsule = Curved Surface Area of Cylinder + Surface Area of Left Hemisphere + Surface Area of Right Hemisphere
=2πrl+2πr

+2πr

=2πrl+4πr
