Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Capacity = Volume = 3080m3
base diameter = 14m
radius = \(\frac{\text{diameter}}{2}\)
= 7m
Volume of Cylidner = Capacity of cylinder
Ï€r2h = 3080
\(\frac{22}{7}\) × 7 × 7 × h = 3080
h = \(\frac{3080}{22 \times 7}\)
h = 20m
Capacity = Volume = 3080m3
base diameter = 14m
radius = \(\frac{\text{diameter}}{2}\)
= 7m
Volume of Cylidner = Capacity of cylinder
Ï€r2h = 3080
\(\frac{22}{7}\) × 7 × 7 × h = 3080
h = \(\frac{3080}{22 \times 7}\)
h = 20m
