A rocket is in the form of a right circular cylinder closed at the lower end and surmounted by a cone with the same radius as that of the cylinder. The
diameter and height of the cylinder are 6 cm and 12 cm, respectively. If the slant height of the conical portion is 5 cm, then find the total surface area
and volume of the rocket, (use n = 3.14J)
Since, rocket is the combination of a right circular cylinder and a cone.
Given, diameter of the cylinder = 6 cm
$\therefore \quad$ Radius of the cylinder $=\frac{6}{2}=3 \mathrm{~cm}$
and height of the cylinder $=12 \mathrm{~cm}$
$\therefore$ Volume of the cylinder $=\pi r^{2} h=3.14 \times(3)^{2} \times 12$
$=339.12 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}$
and curved surface area $=2 \pi r h$
$=2 \times 3.14 \times 3 \times 12=226.08$
Now, in right angled $\triangle A O C$,
$h=\sqrt{5^{2}-3^{2}}=\sqrt{25-9}=\sqrt{16}=4$
$\therefore$ Height of the cone, $h=4 \mathrm{~cm}$
Radius of the cone, $r=3 \mathrm{~cm}$
Now, volume of the cone
$=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h=\frac{1}{3} \times 3.14 \times(3)^{2} \times 4$
$=\frac{113.04}{3}=37.68 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}$
and curved surface area $=\pi r l=3.14 \times 3 \times 5=47.1$
Hence, total volume of the rocket
$=33912+37.68=376.8 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}$
and total surface area of the rocket $=C S A$ of cone $+C S A$ of cylinder + Area of base of cylinder
$=47.1+226.08+28.26$
$=301.44 \mathrm{~cm}^{2}$
