Water is drained from a vertical cylindr...

Water is drained from a vertical cylindrical tank by opening a value at the base of the tank. It is known that the rate at which the water level drops is proportional to the square root of water depth y, where the constant of proprortionality `kgt0` depends on the acceliration due to gravity and the geomety of the hole. If is measured in minutes and `k=(1)/(15)` then the time of drain the tank, If the water is 4 m deep to start with is

A

30 min

B

45 min

C

60 min

D

80 min

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

According to the question,
`(dv)/(dt)=-ksqrt(y)`
or `int_(4)^(0)(dy)/sqrt(y) =-kint_(0)^(t)dt`
or `2sqrt(y)|-(4)^(0)|=-kt =-t/15`
or `0-4=-t/15`
or t=60min

Water is drained from a vertical cylindrical tank by opening a valve at the base of the tank. It is known that the rate at which the water level drops is proportional to the square root of water depth y , where the constant of proportionality k >0 depends on the acceleration due to gravity and the geometry of the hole. If t is measured in minutes and k=1/(15), then the time to drain the tank if the water is 4 m deep to start with is (a) 30 min (b) 45 min (c) 60 min (d) 80 min
