Q.

Water flows into a tank 200 m x 160 m through a rectangular pipe of 1.5m x 1.25 m @ 20 kmph . In what time (in minutes) will the water rise by 2 meters?

View Answer

Correct choice: D

Explanation:

Volume required in the tank = (200 x 150 x 2) cu.m = 60000 cu.m Length of water column flown in1 min =(20 x 1000)/60 m =1000/3 m Volume flown per minute = 1.5 x 1.25 x (1000/3) cu.m= 625 cu.m. Required time = (60000/625)min = 96min
