water flows into a tankfrom a tap whose inner radius is 0.75cm. If the water flows at the rateof 7m/s, how many litres of water flow into the tank in half hour?
Answers
Answer:
ANS: GIVEN : The inner radius of tap 0.75 cm
The water flows at the rate of 7 m per second
Requirement : Vol of water in Litres delivered by the pipe in an hour
Area of cross section =(22*0.75 *0.75 )/7
Vol of water delivered per second = (22*0.75 *0.75*700 )/7 = 1237.5 cm3 [since 7m = 700cm]
1 hour = 60* 60 = 3600 seconds
therefore , water delivered by the pipe in a hour= 1237.5 cm3 * 3600 = 4455000 cm3
1 litre = 103 cm3
Therefore, the quantity of water in litres = 4455000 cm3/103 cm3 = 4455 litres
Thus, the volume in litres of water delivered by the pipe in a hour = 4455 litres.
Solution :—
Volume of the water flows out in 1 second from the tap
= Speed of water × area of cross-section of the tap
.
Area of cross-section of the tap
.
Volume of water which flows out in 1 second
(700 cm/s = 7 m/s)
.
Volume of water which flows out in hours
= 22 × 0.75 × 0.75 × 100 × 30 × 60
= 22,27,500 cm³
= 2227.5 L
