      Question

      A conical water tank has a radius of 7 meters and a

      height of 24 meters. Water is being pumped into the tank at the rate of 20 cubic meters per minute. How long will it take to fill the tank completely?
      A 61.6 minutes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 63.6 minutes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 65.2 minutes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 68.5 minutes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Volume of cone = (1/3)Ο€rΒ²h, where r = 7 m and h = 24 m. Volume = (1/3) Γ— (22/7) Γ— 7Β² Γ— 24 = 1232 mΒ³. Rate of pumping = 20 cubic meters per minute. Time taken = Volume / Rate = 1232 / 20 = 61.6 minutes. Correct answer: a) 61.6 minutes
