A roller is 70 cm long and has a diameter of 2 cm. It takes exactly 100 rotations of the roller to level a road. If the cost of using the roller is 0.5 rupees per square cm, then what is the cost of levelling the road?
A roller is 70 cm long and has a diameter of 2 cm. It takes exactly 100 rotations of the roller to level a road. If the cost of using the roller is 0.5 rupees per square cm, then what is the cost of levelling the road? Correct Answer 22000
Given:
The length of the roller is 70 cm
The diameter of the roller is 2 cm
Concept:
The curved surface area of the roller = 2 × π × r × h
Calculation:
⇒ Radius of the roller = 2/2 = 1 cm
⇒ Length of the roller = 70 cm
⇒ The curved surface area of the roller = 2 × (22/7) × (1) × (70) = 440 cm2
⇒ In one rotation the roller covers 440 cm2. In 100 rotations, the roller covers = 440 × 100 = 44000 cm2
⇒ Cost of levelling = 44000 × 0.5 = 22000 rupees
∴ The required result will be 22000.
