A right cylindrical tank with a total volume of 5,000 cubic units has an interior diameter of 20 units. the volume gauge indicates that the tank is 60% full. to the nearest 5 units, what is the interior height of the fluid in the tank?
Accepted Solution
A:
Total volume of the tank is 5000 cubic units Volume of liquid=60%*5000=3000 cubic units the height of the fluid will be found as follows V=πr²h where: r=20/2=10 units hence:plugging in the values and solving for h we get: 3000=π×(10²)×h thus h=3000/(100π) h=9.5292966 h=9.5293 units
