Question

If the capacity of a cylindrical tank is 1848 m³ and the diameter of its base is 14 m, the depth of the tank is 

A. 8 m 

B. 12 m 

C. 16 m 

D. 18 m

Answer 1

Given that, 

Volume of cylindrical tank = 1848 m³ 

Diameter = 14 m 

So, Radius = 7 m 

We know that, 

Volume of cylinder = \(\pi r^2h\)

1848 = \(\frac{22}{7}\times7\times7\times h\)

h = \(\frac{1848}{22\times7}\)

h = 12 m 

Hence, option B is correct
