a river 3 m deep and 40 m wide is flowing at the rate of 2 km per hour. how much water will fall into the sea in a minute
Answers
Area of cross section of the river =
3 ×40 = 120 square m
Now,
Volume of water flowing through this cross section in every minute
V = Area × rate of flow
= 120×2 km/hr
= 120×(2000/60) meter/min
= 2 ×2000
V= 4000 cubic m
Since 1 m^3 = 1000 litres
So
4000 m^3 = 4000 ×1000
Water flow in 1 minute = 4000000 litres
