500 persons took dip in a rectangular tank which is 80 m long and 50 m broad. What is the rise in the level of water in the tank. If the average displacement of water by a person is 0.04 m^3 ?

Height of a tank in the form of an inverted cone is 10 m and radius of its circular base is 2 m. The tank contains water and it is leaking through a hole at its vertex at the rate of 0.02m^(3)//s. Find the rate at which the water level changes and the rate at which the radius of water surface changes when height of water level is 5 m.

A water tank has steps inside it. A monkey is sitting on the topmost step(i.e., the first step). The water level is at the ninth step. After drinking water, he wants to go back. For this, he jumps 4 steps up and then jumps back 2 steps down in every move. In how many jumps will he reach back the top step?

The gaseous decomposition reaction, A(g)rarr2B(g)+C(g) is observed to first order over the excess of liquid water at 25^(@)C . It is found that after 10 minutes the total pressure of system is 188 torr and after very long time it is 388 torr. The rate constant of the reaction (in hr^(-1)) is : [Given : vapour pressure of H_(2)O at 25^(@) is 28 torr (ln 2=0.7 , ln 3=1.1, ln10=2.3) ] a) 0.02 b) 1.2 c) 0.2 d) none of these
