Question

For rain water harvesting a tank of length 10 m, breadth 6 m and depth 3m is built. What is the capacity of the tank ? How many litre of water can it hold?

Answer 1

length of tank , l = 10m
breadth of tank , b = 6m
depth of tank , h = 3m

$\textbf{capacity of tank means,}\\\textbf{ volume of tank or the amount}\\\textbf{ of space occupied by tank}$
so, volume of tank = length × breadth × depth
= 10m × 6m × 3m = 180 m³

we know, 1 L = 1000cm³ = 10^-3 m³
or , 1 m³ = 1000 L
so, 180m³ = 180, 000 L = 1,80, 000 L

hence, water can hold 1,80,000 L

Answer 2

Answer: 180000 ltr

Solution:
A.T.Q

length = 10m

breadth = 6 m

depth = 3m

so,we can do analysis that tank is rectangular.

Volume of rectangular tank= length x breadth x depth

= 10 x 6 x 3

= 180 meter cube.

Capacity: Normally capacity of tank is calculated in lites.


as we know 1 meter cube = 1000 ltr

so 180 meter cube = 180* 1000 liters

Capacity= 180000 ltr

hope it helps you.
