  • Question
  • Water flows into a tank 100 m x 150 m x 2 m through a rectangular pipe 1.5 m x 1.25 m at a speed of 20 km/h. In what time, will the water rise by 2 m?


  • Options
  • A. 96 min
  • B. 50 min
  • C. 48 min
  • D. 75 min

  • Correct Answer
  • 48 min 

    Explanation

    Volume of water in the tank = 100 x 500 x 2 = 30000 m3
    Speed of water = 20 x 1000/60 = 1000/3 m/min
    water flow per minute = (15/10) x (125/100) x (1000/3) = 625 m3
    Time taken = 30000/625 = 48 min
