A booster pump can be used for fillin...

A booster pump can be used for filling as well as for emptying a tank. The capacity of the tank is 2400 m3. The emptying capacity of the tank is 10 m3 per minute higher than its filing capacity and the pump needs 8 minutes lesser to empty the tank than it needs to fill it. What if the filling capacity of the pump? `50\ m^3//m in` b. `72\ "m"^3//"min"` c. `60\ m^3//m in` d. none of these

  • A pump can be operated both for filling a tank and for emptying it. The capacity of tank is 2400 m^3 . The emptying capacity of the pump is 10 m^3 per minute higher than its filling capacity. Consequently, the pump needs 8 minutes less to empty the tank to fill it. Find the filling capacity of pump.

    A
    50 `m^3`/min
    B
    60 `m^3`/min
    C
    58`m^3`/min
    D
    None of these

  • A tank of 4800m^(3) capacity is full of water. The discharging capacity of the pump is 10m^(3) /min higher than its filling capacity. As a result the pump needs 16 min less to discharge the fuel than to fill up the tank. Find the filling capacity of the pump.

    A
    `50m^(3)//`min
    B
    `25m^(3)//`min
    C
    `55m^(3)//`min
    D
    `24m^(3)//`min
