Question

if the capacity of a cylindrical tank is 1848m cube and the diameter of its base is 14m, then the depth of the tank is

Answer 1

Hi there !!

Given that ,

Volume of cylinder is 1848m³

Diameter of base = 14m
Radius = diameter/2 = 14/2m = 7m

Let the depth of the tank be ' h '

$volume \: = \pi {r}^{2} h$

$1848 = \frac{22}{7} \times 7 \times 7 \times h$
cancelling the 2, 7's in RHS,
we have,


$1848 = 22 \times 7 \times h$
$h = \frac{1848}{22 \times 7}$
h = 12

Thus,
The depth of the tank is 12m
