Find the cost of sinking a tubewell 280 m deep, having diameter 3 m at the rate of Rs. 3.60 per cubic meter. Find also the cost of cementing its inner curved surface at Rs. 2.50 per square meter. |

Answer» Given, Depth of tubewell = 280 m Diameter of tubewell = 3 m So radius = \(\cfrac32\) m Volume of tubewell = πr2h = \(\cfrac{22}7\times\cfrac94\times\)280 = 1980 m3 Curved surface area of tubewell = 2πrh = 2\(\times\cfrac{22}7\times\cfrac{3}2\times\)280 = 2640 m2 ∴ cost of sinking at rate Rs 3.60/m3 = 3.60 × 1980 = Rs. 7128. ∴ cost of cementing at rate Rs. 2.50/m2 = 2.50 × 2640 = Rs. 6600. |
