A cylindrical pipe 50m long with radius 7m has one end open. What is the total surface area of the pipe?
A
749\(\pi\)m2
B
700\(\pi\)m2
C
350\(\pi\)m2
D
98\(\pi\)m2
Verified Correct Answer: A.
Step-by-Step Mathematical Solution
Total surface area of the cylindrical pipe = area of circular base + curved surface area
= \(\pi\)r\(^2\) + 2\(\pi\)rh
= \(\pi\) x 7\(^2\) + 2\(\pi\) x 7 x 50
= 49\(\pi\) + 700\(\pi\)
= 749\(\pi\)m\(^2\)
