A well of diameter 14 m. is dug 15 m. deep. The earth taken out of it has been spread
evenly all around it in the shape of a circular ring of width 7 m. to form an embankment.
Find the height of the embankment. Smy

Step-by-step explanation:
Here, a well is dug and Earth taken out of it is used to form an embankment.
Given,
Inner diameter of the well = 14m
Inner radius of the well = 14/2m = 7m
Height of the well (h) = 15m
Volume of the Earth taken out of the well = πr²h
= 22/7×(7²)×15
= 22×7×15 = 2310m³
Width = 7m
Outer radius of the embankment R = inner radius+width
Outer Radius (R) = 7+7 = 14m
The embankment is in the form of cylindrical shell, so area of embankment
Area of the embankment = Outer area - Inner area
= πR² - πr² = π(R²-r²)
= (22/7) ( 14² - 7²)
= 22/7(196-49)
= 22/7 × 147
= 22 × 21
= 462 m²
Volume of embankment= volume of earth taken out on digging the well
Area of embankment × height of embankment= volume of earth dug out
Height of embankment= volume of earth dug out/area of the embankment
Height of the embankment = 2310 / 462
Height of embankment= 5 m
Hence, the height of the embankment so formed is 5 m
