Solution
Solution Steps
To find the lateral surface area and total surface area of a cylindrical oil storage tank, we need to use the formulas for lateral area (L.A.) and surface area (S.A.). The lateral surface area is calculated using the formula \( L.A. = 2 \pi r h \), where \( r \) is the radius and \( h \) is the height of the cylinder. The total surface area is calculated using the formula \( S.A. = 2 \pi r h + 2 \pi r^2 \), which includes the lateral area plus the area of the two circular ends. Given the diameter, we first find the radius by dividing the diameter by 2.
Step 1: Calculate the Radius
Given the diameter \( d = 56 \, \text{ft} \), the radius \( r \) is calculated as:
\[
r = \frac{d}{2} = \frac{56}{2} = 28.0 \, \text{ft}
\]
Step 2: Calculate the Lateral Surface Area
Using the formula for lateral surface area \( L.A. = 2 \pi r h \):
\[
L.A. = 2 \pi (28.0) (13) \approx 2287.1 \, \text{ft}^2
\]
Step 3: Calculate the Total Surface Area
Using the formula for total surface area \( S.A. = 2 \pi r h + 2 \pi r^2 \):
\[
S.A. = 2 \pi (28.0)(13) + 2 \pi (28.0)^2 \approx 7213.1 \, \text{ft}^2
\]
Final Answer
The lateral surface area of the cylindrical oil storage tank is \( \boxed{2287.1 \, \text{ft}^2} \) and the total surface area is \( \boxed{7213.1 \, \text{ft}^2} \).
