The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to find out how much the water level rises in the cuboidal tank after pouring in an additional 630 liters of water. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the dimensions of the tank:** - Length (L) = 2.1 m - Breadth (B) = 1.5 m 2. **Calculate the volume of water already in the tank:** - Since the tank is half-filled, we need to find the volume of the tank when it is full first. - The volume (V) of a cuboid is given by the formula: \[ V = L \times B \times H \] - However, we don't have the height (H) of the tank yet. We will calculate the height later. 3. **Convert the additional water volume from liters to cubic meters:** - We know that 1 liter = 0.001 cubic meters. - Therefore, 630 liters = \( 630 \times 0.001 = 0.63 \) m³. 4. **Calculate the total volume of water after pouring in the additional water:** - Since the tank is half-filled, we can denote the volume of water already in the tank as \( \frac{V}{2} \). - The new total volume of water in the tank will be: \[ \text{Total Volume} = \frac{V}{2} + 0.63 \] 5. **Calculate the height of the water in the tank:** - The volume of the tank when full is: \[ V = L \times B \times H = 2.1 \times 1.5 \times H \] - Since the tank is half-filled, the volume of water currently in the tank is: \[ \frac{V}{2} = \frac{2.1 \times 1.5 \times H}{2} \] - Setting this equal to the volume of water we have: \[ \frac{2.1 \times 1.5 \times H}{2} + 0.63 = \frac{2.1 \times 1.5 \times H + 1.26}{2} \] 6. **Calculate the height of the water level after pouring in the additional water:** - The total volume of water in the tank after pouring in the additional water is: \[ \frac{2.1 \times 1.5 \times H + 1.26}{2} \] - To find the new height (h) of the water, we can use the volume formula again: \[ V = L \times B \times h \] - Rearranging gives: \[ h = \frac{\text{Total Volume}}{L \times B} \] - Substituting the values: \[ h = \frac{(2.1 \times 1.5 \times H + 1.26)}{2.1 \times 1.5} \] 7. **Calculate the rise in water level:** - The rise in water level is given by: \[ \text{Rise} = h - \frac{H}{2} \] - After calculating, we find that the rise in water level is 0.2 m. ### Final Answer: The water level will rise by 0.2 meters.
