How do teachers connect with students in virtual classrooms? Is it easier or more complicated?
The pandemic raised two concerns for the student and teaching community: 1. How will learning continue? 2. What would happen to classroom
Let, the total volume of the tank be x litres.
In case of first tap,
in 12 hrs, it supplies x litres of water
So, in 1 hr it supplies x/12 litres of water
And, in case of 2nd tap,
in 10 hrs, it removes x/2 litres of water
In 1 hr, it removes x/20 litres of water
Therefore after 1 hr the ultimate amount of water remaining in the tank, when both the taps are on..
=X/12-X/20.
=x/30
Let the required number of hours be Y
Then (x/30)*Y=X
Y=30 hrs (ans)
