  1. Water flows through a cylindrical pipe, whose radius is 7 cm, at 5 metre per second. The time, it takes to fill an empty water tank, with height 1.54 metres and area of the base (3 × 5) square metres, is (take π = 22/7)
    1. 6 minutes
    2. 5 minutes
    3. 10 minutes
    4. 9 minutes
Correct Option: B

Volume of the tank = (3 × 5 × 1.54) cu.metre
Volume of water flowing through pipe per second

= π ×
7
² × 5 m³
100

∴ Required time =
3 × 5 × 1.54 × 100 × 100 × 7
= 300 second = 5 minutes
22 × 7 × 7 × 5
