    A cylindrical tower is 5 metres in diameter and 14 metres high. The cost of white washing its curved surface at 50 paise per \[{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\]is __.

    A)  Rs.90             

    B)  Rs.97 

    C)  Rs.110           

    D)         Rs.95

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Radius of tower\[=\frac{5}{2}m\] Height of tower \[\text{= 14 m}\] \[\therefore \] Curved surface area \[=2\pi rh\] \[=2\times \frac{22}{7}\times \frac{5}{2}\times 14=220{{m}^{2}}\] \[\therefore \]Cost of white washing the curved surface area \[=220\times \frac{50}{100}=Rs.110\]
