Question

If the capacity of a cylindrical tank is $1848m^3$ and the diameter of its base is 14 m,the depth of the tank is

(a) 8 m

(b) 12 m

(c) 16 m

(d) 18 m

Answer 1

Capacity of a cylindrical tank = $1848m^3$

Diameter =14 m

$\therefore Radius\left(r\right)=\frac{14}{2}=7m\therefore Depth=\frac{Volume}{\pi r^2}=\frac{1848\times 7}{22\times 7\times 7}=\frac{264}{22}=12m$
