Here is the solution to your question in English:

Part a· 4 steps

Volume of air

  1. Convert all dimensions to meters.

    The diameter of the first and second sections: D1=500 mm=0.5 mD_1 = 500 \text{ mm} = 0.5 \text{ m}. So, the radius r1=0.25 mr_1 = 0.25 \text{ m}.
    The diameter of the third section: D2=800 mm=0.8 mD_2 = 800 \text{ mm} = 0.8 \text{ m}. So, the radius r2=0.4 mr_2 = 0.4 \text{ m}.

    The length of the first section (horizontal): L1=2 mL_1 = 2 \text{ m}.
    The length of the second section (vertical, upper): L2=1.5 mL_2 = 1.5 \text{ m}.
    The length of the third section (vertical, lower): L3=1.5 mL_3 = 1.5 \text{ m}.

  2. Calculate the volume of air in each cylindrical section using the formula V=πr2LV = \pi r^2 L.

    • Section 1 (horizontal): V1=π(0.25 m)2(2 m)=0.125π m3V_1 = \pi (0.25 \text{ m})^2 (2 \text{ m}) = 0.125 \pi \text{ m}^3
    • Section 2 (vertical, upper): V2=π(0.25 m)2(1.5 m)=0.09375π m3V_2 = \pi (0.25 \text{ m})^2 (1.5 \text{ m}) = 0.09375 \pi \text{ m}^3
    • Section 3 (vertical, lower): V3=π(0.4 m)2(1.5 m)=0.24π m3V_3 = \pi (0.4 \text{ m})^2 (1.5 \text{ m}) = 0.24 \pi \text{ m}^3
  3. Calculate the total volume of air.

    Vtotal=V1+V2+V3=(0.125+0.09375+0.24)π m3=0.45875π m3V_{total} = V_1 + V_2 + V_3 = (0.125 + 0.09375 + 0.24) \pi \text{ m}^3 = 0.45875 \pi \text{ m}^3

    Using π≈3.14159\pi \approx 3.14159:

    Vtotal≈0.45875×3.14159 m3≈1.4412 m3V_{total} \approx 0.45875 \times 3.14159 \text{ m}^3 \approx 1.4412 \text{ m}^3
  4. Convert the total volume to liters (1 m3=1000 litres1 \text{ m}^3 = 1000 \text{ litres}).

    Vtotal=1.4412 m3×1000 litres/m3=1441.2 litresV_{total} = 1.4412 \text{ m}^3 \times 1000 \text{ litres/m}^3 = 1441.2 \text{ litres}

    Rounding to the nearest liter:

    a) 1441 litres\boxed{\text{a) } 1441 \text{ litres}}

    Note: The provided answer for (a) is 1458 litres. This difference (16.8 litres) likely accounts for the volume of the bends, which are not explicitly dimensioned in the diagram. My calculation is based on the straight cylindrical sections only.

Part b

b) 11.58 m2\text{b) } 11.58 \text{ m}^2

Cross-sectional area of the sheet metal

  1. Calculate the surface area of each cylindrical section (excluding the ends) using the formula A=2πrLA = 2 \pi r L.

    • Section 1 (horizontal): A1=2π(0.25 m)(2 m)=1π m2A_1 = 2 \pi (0.25 \text{ m}) (2 \text{ m}) = 1 \pi \text{ m}^2
    • Section 2 (vertical, upper): A2=2π(0.25 m)(1.5 m)=0.75π m2A_2 = 2 \pi (0.25 \text{ m}) (1.5 \text{ m}) = 0.75 \pi \text{ m}^2
    • Section 3 (vertical, lower): A3=2π(0.4 m)(1.5 m)=1.2π m2A_3 = 2 \pi (0.4 \text{ m}) (1.5 \text{ m}) = 1.2 \pi \text{ m}^2
  2. Calculate the total base area of the sheet metal required (without waste).

    Abase=A1+A2+A3=(1+0.75+1.2)π m2=2.95π m2A_{base} = A_1 + A_2 + A_3 = (1 + 0.75 + 1.2) \pi \text{ m}^2 = 2.95 \pi \text{ m}^2 Abase≈2.95×3.14159 m2≈9.2677 m2A_{base} \approx 2.95 \times 3.14159 \text{ m}^2 \approx 9.2677 \text{ m}^2
  3. Add 25% for waste.

    Atotal=Abase×(1+0.25)=9.2677 m2×1.25≈11.5846 m2A_{total} = A_{base} \times (1 + 0.25) = 9.2677 \text{ m}^2 \times 1.25 \approx 11.5846 \text{ m}^2

    Rounding to two decimal places:

    b) 11.58 m2\boxed{\text{b) } 11.58 \text{ m}^2}

    Note: The provided answer for (b) is 9.77 m2^2. If this value represents the area without waste, then the total area including 25% waste would be 9.77 m2×1.25=12.2125 m29.77 \text{ m}^2 \times 1.25 = 12.2125 \text{ m}^2. My direct calculation for the base area is 9.2677 m29.2677 \text{ m}^2, which is different from 9.77 m29.77 \text{ m}^2. This discrepancy likely arises from how the surface area of the bends is calculated or approximated.

Part c

c) £133.22\text{c) } £133.22

Cost of the sheet metal

  1. Calculate the cost using the total area of sheet metal required (including waste) and the cost per square meter.

    Using my calculated total area from (b):

    Cost=11.5846 m2×£11.50/m2≈£133.22Cost = 11.5846 \text{ m}^2 \times £11.50/\text{m}^2 \approx £133.22

    Rounding to two decimal places:

    c) £133.22\boxed{\text{c) } £133.22}

    Note: If we use the provided answer for (b) as the base area (9.77 m2^2) and then add 25% waste, the total area would be 9.77 m2×1.25=12.2125 m29.77 \text{ m}^2 \times 1.25 = 12.2125 \text{ m}^2. In this case, the cost would be 12.2125 m2×£11.50/m2=£140.44375≈£140.4512.2125 \text{ m}^2 \times £11.50/\text{m}^2 = £140.44375 \approx £140.45, which matches the provided answer for (c).
