Question

A conical tent can accommodate 11 persons . Every person need 4 sq. m of land 20 cm3 of air. Find the height of the tent just for 11 persons .

  1. 5m
  2. 10m
  3. 15m
  4. 20m

The correct answer is: 15m


    We have given a conical tent for 11 persons
    Every person requires 4 sq.m of land
    So, 11 persons will require = 11 x 4 = 44 sq.m of land
    Therefore, Area of base of tent = 44 sq.cm

    Every person requires 20cm3 volume of air
    So, 11 persons will require = 11 x 20 = 220 cm3 of air
    Therefore, Volume of tent = 220 cm3
    We have to find the height of tent
    We know that
    Volume of a cone = (1/3)πr2h
    Area of base = πr2
    Let us divide both these formulas to get the value of height

    fraction numerator text  Volume of a cone  end text over denominator text  Area of base  end text end fraction equals fraction numerator 1 third pi r squared h over denominator pi r squared end fraction

    220 over 44 equals h over 3

    h equals 5 cross times 3

    h = 15
    Therefore, the height of the given tent is 15 m
    Therefore, the correct option is c) 15 m
