A cylindrical tank has a capacity of 3080m3. What is the depth of the tank if the diameter of its base is 14m? Take pi = 22/7.

A.

23m

B.

25m

C.

20m

D.

22m

Correct Answer: 20m

Explanation

Capacity = Volume = 3080m33 base diameter = 14m radius = diameter/2 = 7m Volume of Cylidner = Capacity of cylinder πr2h = 3080 22/7 × 7 × 7 × h = 3080 h = 3080/22×7 h = 20m

Capacity = Volume = 3080m33 base diameter = 14m radius = diameter/2 = 7m Volume of Cylidner = Capacity of cylinder πr2h = 3080 22/7 × 7 × 7 × h = 3080 h = 3080/22×7 h = 20m
