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