A cylindrical bucket, 28cm in diameter and 72cm high, is full of water. The water is emptied into a rectangular tank, 66cm long and 28cm wide. Find the height of the water level in the tank. |

Answer» It is given that Diameter of the bucket = 28cm Radius = 28/2 = 14cm Height of the bucket = 72cm Length of the tank = 66cm Breadth of tank = 28 cm We know that Volume of tank = volume of cylindrical bucket l × b × h = πr2h By substituting the values 66 × 28 × h = (22/7) × (14)2 × 72 On further calculation h = (22 × 2 × 14 × 72)/ (66 × 28) So we get h = 24 cm Therefore, the height of the water level in the tank is 24 cm. |
