Question

The capacity of a cylindrical tank is 3080 m³. If the radius of its base is 7 m, find the depth of the tank.

A.

15 m

B.

25 m

C.

10 m

D.

20 m

Correct option is D

Given:
Volume of the cylindrical tank = 3080 m33080 \, \text{m}^3​​
Radius of the base = 7 m7 \, \text{m}​​
Formula Used:
The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula:
Volume = πr2h\pi r^2 h​​
where r is the radius of the base and h is the depth (or height) of the cylinder.
Solution:
Substitute the given values into the formula:
3080=π(7)2h h=3080227×49 h=308022×7 h=203080 = \pi (7)^2 h \\ \ \\h = \frac{3080}{\frac{22}{7} \times 49}\\ \ \\h = \frac{3080}{22 \times 7} \\ \ \\h = 20​​
Thus, the depth of the tank is 20 meters.
