The radius of a cylindrical water tank is reduced by 50%.
The radius of a cylindrical water tank is reduced by 50%. However, the speed by which water is filled into the tank is also decreased by 50%. How much more or less time F will it take to fill the tank now?
Answer/Solution
50% less time
Steps/Work
(VC)Volume of the cylinderical vessal is directly proportional to R^2.
So if radius is 50% less volume will be 1/4th of the original volume.(VC/4)
Now if with velocity V tank can be filled in T1 time of volume VC
So now Velocity is 50% less i..e V/2
So time taken to fill the capacity VC/4 by V/2 velocity is T2.
VT1 = VC
V/2*T2 = VC/4
So T1/T2 = 1/2
So Tank will be filled in less time. that is F=50 % less.A
