A car has two wipers which do not overlap. Each wiper has a blade of length 25 cm sweeping through an angle of $115^o$. Find the total area cleaned at each sweep of the blades.
Given:
A car has two wipers which do not overlap. Each wiper has a blade of length 25 cm sweeping through an angle of $115^o$.
To do:
We have to find the total area cleaned at each sweep of the blades.
Solution:
The length of the blade of wiper $=$ Radius of sector swept by blade
$= 25\ cm$
Area cleaned by each sweep of the blade $=$ Area of sector swept by the blade
Angle of the sector formed by the blade of the wiper $=115^o$
Area of the sector formed $=\frac{\pi r^{2} \theta}{360^{\circ}}$
$=\frac{22}{7} \times \frac{25 \times 25 \times 115^{\circ}}{360^{\circ}}$
$=\frac{11 \times 25 \times 25 \times 23}{7 \times 36}$
Total area cleaned at each sweep of the blade $=2$ (Area cleaned by one wipe)
$=\frac{2 \times 11 \times 25 \times 25 \times 23}{7 \times 36}$
$=\frac{11 \times 25 \times 25 \times 23}{7 \times 18}$
$=\frac{158125}{126} \mathrm{~cm}^{2}$
The total area cleaned at each sweep of the blades is $\frac{158125}{126} \mathrm{~cm}^{2}$.
