    The decorative block shown in the figure is made of two solids, a cube and a hemisphere.  The base of the block is a cube with edge 5 cm, and the hemisphere fixed on the top has a diameter of\[4.2\text{ }cm\]. The total surface area of the block is __.

    A)  \[150\,\,c{{m}^{2}}\]         

    B)  \[160.86\,c{{m}^{2}}\]                  

    C)  \[162.86\,c{{m}^{2}}\]   

    D)         \[163.86\,c{{m}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Total surface area of the block = Total surface area of cube + Curved surface area of hemisphere - Area of base of hemisphere \[=6\times {{(5)}^{2}}+2\pi \times {{(2.1)}^{2}}-\pi \times {{(2.1)}^{2}}\] \[=150+\pi \times {{(2.1)}^{2}}-\pi \times {{(2.1)}^{2}}=150+13.86=163.86c{{m}^{2}}\]
