a water pump has a capacity to fill water at 10 liters per second. How much time will it take to fill the water tank of 80cm .60cm.50cm?
1 litre = 10^3 cm^3 or 1000 cm^3
10 litres = 10,000 cm^3
I will assume your tank is 80 cm by 60 cm by 50 cm, and not 0.6 and 0.5 cm like you typed
volume = 80(60)(50) cm^3
= 240000 cm^3
time for the given rate = 240000/10000 seconds
= 24 seconds
10 liters = 1 cubic centimeter
80*60*50 = ? cubic centimenters
To calculate the time required to fill a water tank, you need to find the volume of the tank and then divide it by the filling rate of the water pump.
First, calculate the volume of the tank using the given dimensions of 80cm x 60cm x 50cm:
Volume = Length x Width x Height
Volume = 80cm x 60cm x 50cm
Next, convert the measurements to the same unit (liters) since the filling rate of the water pump is given in liters per second:
Volume = (80cm x 60cm x 50cm) / (100cm x 100cm x 100cm) (to convert cm^3 to liters)
Now, multiply the volume by the filling rate of the water pump:
Time = Volume / Filling Rate
Time = (80cm x 60cm x 50cm) / (100cm x 100cm x 100cm) / 10 liters/sec
Simplify the equation:
Time = (80cm x 60cm x 50cm) / (100cm x 100cm x 100cm) / 10
Time = (80cm x 60cm x 50cm) / (100,000 cubic cm) / 10
Time = (80cm x 60cm x 50cm) / 100,000 cm^3 / 10
Time = (80cm x 60cm x 50cm) / 1,000,000 cm^3
Time = (240,000 cm^3) / 1,000,000 cm^3
Time = 0.24 seconds
Therefore, it will take about 0.24 seconds to fill the water tank.
