    Question

    A pipe fills a cubical tank at the rate of 384

    m3 per minute in 36 minutes. If a cylindrical tank having height same as the side of a cubical tank and the curved surface area of the cylindrical tank is 2112 m2, then find the difference between the volumes of cylindrical tank and cubical tank.
    A 5256 m³ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 8520 m³ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 2904 m³ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 960 m³ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 5760 m³ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Capacity of cubical tank = 384 × 36 = 13824 m3 Let, side of cubical tank = ‘x’ m So, x3 = 13824 m3 x = 24 m So, height of cylindrical tank = 24 m Let, radius of cylindrical tank = ‘r’ m So, 2 × 22/7 × r × 24 = 2112 r = 14 m Volume of cylindrical tank =   22/7 × 14 × 14 × 24 = 14784 m3 Required difference = 14784 – 13824 = 960 m³
