_________________
•volume of well or earth dug out = πr^2h
diameter = 14m , radius =14/2=7m
depth / height = 15m
•now volume = 22/7×(7)^2×15
=105×22
•volume of embankment =π(R^2-r^2)×h
outer radius (R) = outer width + inner radius
= 7+7=14m
inner radius(r) = 7 m
height = ?
•volume = 22/7 ( 14^2-7^2)×h
=22/7×196-49×h
=22/7×147×h
=22×21×h
•earth taken out of well is spread over all around it forming a embankment
•volume of well = volume of embankment
105×22=21×22×h
105×22/21×22 = h
105×22/462=h
h=5m
hence height is 5 m
hope helped
