Given: interior diameter of the tank (d) = 1.6 m and depth (h) = 0.7 m
To find: Capacity of the tank interior diameter of the tank (d) = 1.6 m
∴ Interior radius (r) = d/2 = 16/2 = 0.8 m
= 0.8 x 100 …[∵ 1m = 100cm]
= 80cm
h = 0.7 m = 0.7 x 100 = 70 cm
Capacity of the tank = Volume of the tank = πr2h
= (22/7) x 80 x 80 x 70 = 22 x 80 x 80 x 10
= 1408000 cc
= 1408000/1000
…[∵1 litre = 1000 cc] = 1408 litre
∴ The tank can hold 1408 litre of water.
