  1. The rectangular park has a height. So instead of taking it as a rectangle, we can consider it as a cuboid

    We are given that:

    • Radius of cylinder = 7 m
    • Height of cylinder = 10 m
    • Length of cuboid = 5 m
    • Breadth of cuboid = 3.5 m

    We need to find the height of rectangular park.

    According to the question,

    Cylinder Cuboid

    So,

    Volume of cylinder = Volume of cuboid

    π r² h = l × b × h

    ⇒ (22 ÷ 7) × 7 × 7 × 10 = 5 × 3.5 × h

    ⇒ 22 × 7 × 10 = 17.5 × h

    ⇒ h = (22 × 7 × 10) ÷ 17.5

    ⇒ h = 1540 ÷ 17.5

    h = 88 m

    ∴ The height of the soil so formed = 88 m

  2. Question

    A cylindrical tank of 7m. radius and 10 m. depth dug. The soil taken out from the tank is spread on a rectangular park of length 5m.and breadth 3.5 m. Find the height of the soil formed on the park.

    Solution

    The rectangular park has a height. So instead of taking it as a rectangle, we can consider it as a cuboid

    We are given that:

    Radius of cylinder = 7 m

    Height of cylinder = 10 m

    Length of cuboid = 5 m

    Breadth of cuboid = 3.5 m

    We need to find the height of rectangular park.

    According to the question,

    Cylinder → Cuboid

    So,

    Volume of cylinder = Volume of cuboid

    ➥ π r² h = l × b × h

    ⇒ (22 ÷ 7) × 7 × 7 × 10 = 5 × 3.5 × h

    ⇒ 22 × 7 × 10 = 17.5 × h

    ⇒ h = (22 × 7 × 10) ÷ 17.5

    ⇒ h = 1540 ÷ 17.5

    ⇒ h = 88 m

    ∴ The height of the soil so formed = 88 m
