Question


Water flows at the rate of 10 m per mins from a cylindrical pipe of radius 2.5 mm. A conical vessel of diameter 40 cm and depth 24 cm is filled with water flowing from this pipe. The time taken to fill the conical vessel is:


Options:
A .   < 30 mins
B .   30 < t < 50 mins
C .   50 < t < 75 mins
D .   >75 mins
Answer: Option C
:
C

Area=πr2=6.25π


Rate of flow= (πr2x1000) mm3/min
=6250π mm2/min 
Volume of cone=13 πr2h = 13 π (200)2x 240 mm3
=80πx40000
=3200000π mm3
Thus, total time taken is:
(Volume of cone in mm3)(Rate of water flow in mm3/min) = 51.2min
Thus answer option (c) is correct.
