A medicine capsule is 14 mm long overall and 5 mm in diameter (so r=2.5 mm). The cylindrical part length = 14 - 2*2.5 = 9 mm. Its surface area (2*π*r∗h+4*π*r2) in mm2, taking π = 722, is approximately:
Class 10Surface Area of Combined SolidsMensuration
A220mm2
B110mm2
C78.5mm2
D55mm2
Step-by-Step Solution
2*π*r∗h=2∗(722)∗2.5×9=141.43. 4*π*r2=4∗(722)∗6.25=78.57. Total =141.43+78.57=220mm2.
Answer: A) 220mm2
