  1. Given

    • Diameter = 14m
    • Radius = 7m
    • Depth = 8m
    • Let Height of embankment = Xm

    To find

    • Height of the embankment ?

    Solution

    Volume of earth dug out from well = [tex]\sf{\red{πr²}} [/tex]

    ➲ [tex] \frac{22}{7} [/tex]× 7 × 7 × 8

    [tex]\boxed{\text{→ 1232m³}}[/tex]

    The earth Spread out of width = 21m

    Area × h = 1232

    [tex]\boxed{\text{➲π(R²-r²)h = 1232 }}[/tex]

    [tex] \frac{22}{7} [/tex](28²-7²)h = 1232

    ➲[tex] \frac{22}{7} [/tex](735)h= 1232

    ➲h = [tex] \frac{1232×7}{22×735} [/tex]

    ➲h = [tex] \frac{8624}{16170} [/tex]

    [tex]\boxed{\text{ ➲h = 0.533m }}[/tex]

    [tex]\boxed{\text{➲h = 53.3cm }}[/tex]

    Height of embankment is 53.3cm
