QUESTION
Water is flowing at the rate of 5km/hr through a pipe of diameter 14 cm into a rectangular tank of dimensions 50m*44m . find the time in which the level of water in the tank will rise by 21cm.
Answer
Given,Speed of flow of water = 5km/hr.
Diameter of pipe = 14cm.
Hence,radius of pipe will be (14/2 )cm = 7cm= 0.07m.
Dimensions of rectangular tank = 50m by 44m.
Now,Let the level of water raises 21cm in x hours.
0r
The level of water raises 0.21m in x hours.(height of the rectangular tank)
Since the flow of water is 5km per hour.
So, Length of water column in x hours = 5×1000×(x) = 5000x m.
Since,the water is in form is inside a cylindrical pipe,hence it will be in form of the cylinder also.
Hence,
Volume of water flowing through the cylindrical pipe in x hours
=>
= >22/7 × (0.07)² × 5000x
=>77x m³
But,volume of water that falls into the tank in x hours=>
length × breadth × height
=>50 × 44 × 0.21
=>462 m³
So, we get =>>>
Volume of water flowing out the pipe in x hours = volume of water in the rectangular tank in x hours
=>462m³ = 77x m³
=> x = 6
Hence,rise in level of water in rectangular tank by 21 cm or 0.21 m is in 6 hours.
