The height of a water tank is 7m.In this 5,50,000 litres of water is filled then find the diameter of this tank
Open in App
Solution
the water that can be filled in a tank is the volume of the tank(pls understand this cocept) as the diameter is given we can assume that the shape of the tank will be cylindrical volume of a cylinder is equal to base area* height base area=base area of circle=3.14*r*r where r=radius=diameter/2 diameter=2r so the volume of the tank is the amount of water which is equal to 550000 litres we know 1 litre=0.001 cubic metre 550000 litre=550000*0.001 cubic metre=550 cubic metre so 3.14*r*r*h=550 as height is equal to 7m 3.14*(r^2)*7=550.....................(iam using r^2 for r square due to inability of my keyboard) r^2=550/(3.14*7)=25 m square r^2=25 then r=5 metre diameter=2*r=2*5=10 metre
