    Question

    A conical tent has to be accommodate 30 persons. Each person must have 5 m2m^2 spaces on the ground and 120m3120 m^3 of air to breather. Find the height (in m) of the tent.​

    A.

    64

    B.

    60

    C.

    84

    D.

    72

    Correct option is D

    ​Given:

    Total number of Persons = 30 

    Each Persons requires space = 5 m2 

    Each Persons requires air = 120 m3 

    Concept Used: 

    Volume of the Cone = Total number of Persons  ×\times volume of air 

    Formula Used: 

    Area of the circle = πr2\pi r^2​​

    Volume of the Cone = 13πr2h\frac 13 \pi r^2 h 

    where, r = radius and h = height 

    Solution:  

    Area of the space = πr2\pi r^2  

    30×5=πr2 r2=150π30 \times 5 = \pi r^2 \\ \ \\ r^2 = \frac{150}{\pi} 

    Now, 

    13πr2h=30×120 13×π×150π×h=30×120  h=30×120×3150 h=72\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h = 30 \times 120 \\ \ \\ \frac{1}{3}\times\pi \times\frac{150}{\pi} \times h = 30 \times 120 \\ \ \\ \ h = \frac{30 \times 120\times 3}{ 150}\\ \ \\ h = 72 

    Thus, the height(h) of the cone = 72 m
