Answer 2

The depth of the water if its base is a square of side 1.2 m is 2 m

Step-by-step explanation:

1 cubic m = 1000 liters

A rectangular water reservoir contains 2880 litres of water

Volume of water = 2880 liters = $\frac{2880}{1000}=2.88 m^3$

We are given that its base is a square of side 1.2 m

So, Volume of rectangular reservoir = $Length \times Breadth \times Height$

Volume of rectangular reservoir =$1.2 \times 1.2 \times Height$

So, $1.2 \times .12 \times Height = 2.88\\Height = \frac{2.88}{1.2 \times 1.2}\\Height = 2$

Hence the depth of the water if its base is a square of side 1.2 m is 2 m
