Question

A water tank measures 4m in length 2.5 m in width and 1,5 m in height. Calculate the capacity of water in kilolitres? (Given, density of water = 1gcm-3)

Answer 1

Explanation:

Length of water tank =4 m

Breadth =2 m

Height =50 cm=

100

50

m

Volume of tank =l×b×h

=4×2×

100

50

m

3

=4 m

3

∴ Volume of water tank =4 m

3

1 m

3

=1000 L

4 m

3

=(4×1000) L

=4000 litres of water can be stored in tank.
