a well of diameter 3m is dug 14m deep. the earth taken out of it has been spread evenly all around it in the shape to a circular ring of width 4m to form an embankment.find the height of the embankment.
Answers
- Diameter of well = 3 m
- Height of well = 14 m
- Width of circular ring around the well
- The height of embankment
We know that ,
➠
Volume of the earth taken out of the well = Volume of well
➠ πr²h ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓵
Where ,
- r = Radius
- h = Height
- r =
- h = 14
⟮ Putting these values in ⓵ ⟯
➜ πr²h

➜ 11 × 3 × 3
➜ 11 × 9
➜ 99 cu. m. ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓶
- Hence the volume of well is 99 cu. m. thus the volume of earth taken out is 99 cu. m.
External radius = Radius of well + Width of circular ring around well
➜ External radius =

➜ cu. m. ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓷
- Hence the volume of cylinder with external radius is cu. m.
Internal radius = Radius of well
- r =
- h = H = Height of embankment

➜ ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓸
- Hence the volume of cylinder with internal radius is cu. m.
Volume of cylinder with external radius - Volume of cylinder with Internal radius = Volume of embankment around the well

➜ 88 × H cu. m. ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓹
- Hence volume of embankment is 88H cu. m.
As earth taken out from well is spread to form embankment
So,
Volume of embankment = Volume of well
⓹ = ⓶
➜ 88 × H = 99
➜
➨ H = 1.125 m
- Hence the height of the embankment is 1.125 m
