Question

Water flows into a tank 200 m x 150 m through  a rectangular  pipe 1.5 m x 1.25 m  @ kmph. In what time (in minutes ) will the water rise by 2 metres ?


Options:
A .  96 min
B .  97 min
C .  98 min
D .  100 min
Answer: Option A

Volume required in the tank =  (200 x 150 x 2) `m^3` = 60000 `m^3`

Length of water column  flown in 1 min = `((20 xx 1000)/(60)) m =  1000/3  m`

Volume flown per minute = `(1.5 xx 1.25 xx 1000/3) m^3 = 625 m^3`

`:.`      Required time = `(60000/625)` min = 96 min.
