An aeroplane is 30 in long and its model is 15 cm long. If the total outer surface area of the model is 150 cm², find the cost of painting the outer surface of the aeroplane at the rate of ₹ 120 per sq.m. Given that 50 sq. m of the surface of the aeroplane is left for windows.
Solution:
Length of aeroplane = 30 m = 3000 cm
and length of its model = 15 cm
Surface area of model = 150 cm²
Scale factor (k) = \(\frac { 3000 }{ 15 }\) = \(\frac { 200 }{ 1}\)
Area of plane = k² x area of model = (200)² x 150 cm² = 40000 x 150 cm²
\(\frac { 40000 x 150 }{ 10000 }\) = 600 m² (1 m² = 10000 cm²)
Shape left for windows = 50 sq. m
Balance area = 600 – 50 = 550 sq. m
Race of painting the outer surface = ₹ 120 per sq.m
Total cost = ₹ 550 x 120 = ₹ 66000
