Q6 of 18 Page 13

The internal and external diameters of a hollow hemispherical vessel are 42 cm and 45.5 cm, respectively. Find its capacity and also its outer curved surface area.

Internal radius of a hollow hemispherical vessel (r1) = 21 cm
External radius of a hollow hemispherical vessel (r2) = 22.75 cm
Capacity of a hollow hemispherical vessel =π r13 = × × 21 × 21 × 21
                                                      = 19404 cm3
                                                      = 19.404 litres
Curved surface area of a hollow hemispherical vessel = 2π r22
                                                                     = 2× (22.75 ) 2
                                                                     = 3253.25 cm3.
