A cylindrical tank has a capacity of 3080m3. What is the depth of the tank if the diameter of its base is 14m? Take pi = 22/7.
- 23m
- 25m
-
20m
- 22m
The correct answer is: C
Explanation
Capacity = Volume = 3080m3base diameter = 14m
radius = \(\frac{\text{diameter}}{2}\)
= 7m
Volume of Cylidner = Capacity of cylinder
πr2h = 3080
\(\frac{22}{7}\) × 7 × 7 × h = 3080
h = \(\frac{3080}{22 \times 7}\)
h = 20m
