A square water tank 3.5 meters high has a capacity of 40,000 liters. Find the lenght of the sides. (1 cubic meter= 1,000 liters).
Volume =40,0000 liters
=40,000/1000
=40 cubbic meters.
Volume= Base area*Height,.
Base area =3.5*3.5=12.25 sq.m.
V=AH.
Height H=3.5 m.
Arera A=V/H.
=40/3.5
=11.43 sq.m.
Area =s^2.
s= sqrt(11.43)
=3.38 meters.
