    Question

    A river 20 m deep and 36 m wide is flowing at the rate of 2.7 km/hr. The amount of water (in m3m^3​) that runs into the sea per minute is _____.

    A.

    30,024

    B.

    32,400

    C.

    30,240

    D.

    34,200

    Correct option is B

    Given:

    Depth of river (d) = 20 m
    Width of river (w) = 36 m
    Flow rate = 2.7 km/hr
    Time = 1 minute

    Formula Used:
    Volume of water = Depth × Width × Flow rate × Time

    Solution:
    Flow rate (in m/min) = 2.7 ×100060 \frac{1000 }{ 60}​ = 45 m/min
    Volume of water = 20 × 36 × 45 × 1 = 32400 m³
