SSC CHSL - 04 July 2024 - Shift 3 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q62

Find the capacity of an overhead cylindrical water tank, in liters, whose radius is 2.1 m and height is 6.3 m.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 87318.

The volume of a cylinder = πr2h

here, r = radius, h = height

Volume = 22/7 × 2.1 × 2.1 × 6.3

⇒ 22/7 × 2.1 × 2.1 × 6.3

⇒ 22 × 0.3 × 2.1 × 6.3 = 87.318

Now,

The capacity = 87.318 × 1000 = 87318 liters
