A rectangular tank is 80 m long and 25 m broad. Water flows into it through a pipe whose cross-section is 25 cm2, at the rate of 16 km per hour. How much the level of the water rise in the tank in 45 minutes.


Given,


Dimension of rectangular tank = 80m×25m = 8000cm×2500cm


Cross section area of pipe = 25 cm2


Rate of flow of water through pipe = 16 km/h


Length of pipe = flow of water through it in 45 minute at speed 16 km/h


=


Volume of pipe =


Let level of water rises in tank in 45 minute = h cm


= 8000×2500×h =


= h =
