Question

A pit 10 m long and 2 m wide is filled with 4.8 cubic m. of sand. What is the depth of the pit?

hintHint:

A pit is a rectangular cylinder. So, we use l b h as the formula for volume of the pit where l comma b comma h are the length, width and depth of the pit, respectively and solve the problem.

The correct answer is: The depth of the pit is 0.24 m


    Explanations:
    Step 1 of 1:
    The parameters of the pit is given by, l = 10; b = 2 and volume = 4.8
    Therefore,
    l b h equals 4.8
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow 10 cross times 2 cross times h equals 4.8
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow h equals 48 over 10 cross times 1 over 20
    not stretchy rightwards double arrow h equals 0.24
    Final Answer:
    The depth of the pit is 0.24 m

    The circumference of Earth is estimated to be 40,030 kilometers at the equator. Which of the following best approximates the diameter, in miles, of Earth's equator? (1 kilometer almost equal to 0.62137  miles)

    Note:
    There are many other units of length which are often used. For example: inch, foot, yard, centimetre, parsec, lightyear, nanometre, etc. They measure anything between atoms to a galaxy.
    Some relations between them are given by
    1 kilometer = 39370.0787 inches = 3280.84 feet = 100000 centimetre
    1 mile = 63357 inches = 5279.75 feet = 160926.94 centimetre

    Note:
    This is a logical question and doesn’t require any prior knowledge except the idea of multiplication. This could also be solved by simply making a table with an interval of 20 min and population which is multiplies by 2 in consecutive cells till we get 2 hours.
