An hemispherical dome is half a sphere. If the diameter is 60 m, then the radius is 30 m.
We can use differentials to solve this problem because we are adding a thin layer to the original dome, so the volume of the dome in increased by a differential of itself.
This differential volume that the dome is increased is equal to the volume of the coat of paint.
The volume of the dome can be written as:
Now, we can calculate dV as:
Answer: the paint needed for this coat is approximately 7.92 m^3
