Sir,
Q-1 The rain which falls on roof of 24m * 16m is stored in a cylindrical tank of diametre 14m. If it rains 10 cm on a day, what is the rise of water level in the tank?
Q-2 A water tank built by the municipality of a town to supply water to its 25000 inhabitants at 125 litres per day per person is 40 m long and 31.25 m broad. The tank when full can supply water for 2 days to the inhabitants of the town. Find the depth of the tank.
Q-3 A cuboidal piece of brass having a base of 11 dm2 and height 0.2 dm is drawn into a cylindrical wire of 0.25cm in diametre. Find the length of wire.
Thank you.
1)roof area = 24*16 = 384 m²
It rains 10 cm a day , so the height = = 0.1 m
Hence, volume of rain = 384*0.1 = 38.4 m³
Radius of cylindrical tank = 14/2 = 7m
Volume of cylindrical tank = r²h
= (7)²h
= *7*7 h
So, volume of rain = volume of cylindrical tank
38.4 = 22* 7 h
h =
= 0.25 m
= 25 cm
Hence rise of water level = 25 cm
2) Q-2 A water tank built by the municipality of a town to supply water to its 25000 inhabitants at 125 litres per day per person is 40 m long and 31.25 m broad. The tank when full can supply water for 2 days to the inhabitants of the town. Find the depth of the tank.
Total capacity of tank = 25000*125*2 = 6250000 litres
= = 6250 m³
Volume of tank = 40 * 31.25 * h m³
So, 40 * 31.25 * h = 6250
1250 * h = 6250
h =
= 5 m
So, the depth of tank = 5m
3) Q-3 A cuboidal piece of brass having a base of 11 dm2 and height 0.2 dm is drawn into a cylindrical wire of 0.25cm in diametre. Find the length of wire.
Area of base of cuboidal brass = 11 dm²
= 1100cm²
Height = 0.2 cm = 2cm
Volume of cuboid = 1100* 2 = 2200 cm³
Diameter of cylinder = 0.25cm
Radius of cylinder = = 0.125 cm
Let l be the length of cylindrical wire
So, volume of cylindrical wire = r²h
= (0.125)²h
= *0.125*0.125 h
Volume of cuboid = volume of cylindrical wire
2200 = *0.125*0.125 h
H =
= 44800 cm
= 448 m
