Water is flowing at the rate of 15km/hour through a pipe of diameter 14cm into a cuboidal pond
which is 50mn long and 44m wide. In what time will the level of water in the pond rise by 21 cm
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
In cylinder,
r=7cm=0.7m
l=15km
=15000m
In tank,
l=50m
b=44m
h=0.21m
Vol.of water in tank=lbh
=50*44*0.21
=462m³
Height of cylindrical pipe=Vol. / πr²
=462/(0.07)²(22/7)
=462/0.0154
=30000m
Time = 30000/15000
= 2 hours
●Solution:-
▪Given that:-
- Water is flowing at the rate of 15km/hour through a pipe
- Diameter of pipe = 14 cm.
- Length and Breadth of cuboidal pond = 50m and 44m.
▪To find:-
- time taken by the level of water in the pond to rise by 21 cm.
______________________________
Let the level of water in the pond rises by 21 cm
in t hours.
Radius of the pipe (r) 7/100 m
Volume of water flowing out of the pipe in 1 hour
= (22/7) x (7/100) (7/100) x 15000
= 231 m^3
Volume of water flowing out of the pipe in t hours
231t m^3
Volume of water in the cuboidal pond
50 x 44 x (21/100)
= 462 m
Volume of water flowing out of the pipe in t hours =
Volume of water in the cuboidal pond
So, 231 t = 462
t =2
The required time is 2 hours
