The capacity of a cylindrical tank is 6,160 m3. Its base diameter is 28 m. The depth of his tank is:

Take π = 227 {{} 22\over 7}

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 10 m

Given that

The base diameter of the cylinder is 28 m 

the radius of the cylinder is 28/2 = 14 m

The capacity of the cylinder = 6160 m3

Formula used

The capacity of the cylinder = π r² h

Calculation

⇒ 6160 = (22/7) × 142 × h

⇒ 6160 = 22 × 28 × h

⇒ h = 10 m

 Hence, the height of the cylinder is 10 m
