Question

A reservoir is in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped its
length is 20m if 18kl of water is removed from reservoir,the water
level goes down by 15cm find the width of the reservoir

priyanka saggu · Accepted Answer

Dimensions of rectangular parallelo piped reservoir,

L = 20 m

B = b (say)

h = 15 cm = 0 15 m

Volume of water removed = 18 KL = 18 m3
Volume of rectacgular parallelopipe = l×b×h18 =
20×b× 1518 = 3bb = 6 mSo, the width of the reservoir is
6 m
