  1. Radius of pipe (r₁) = 20 / 200 = 0.1 m
    Area of cross- section of pipe = πr₁² = π(0.1)² = 0.01π m³
    Speed of water = 3 km/h = 3000/60 = 50 m/min
    Volume of water flows through in 1 minute = 50 × 0.01π = 0.5πm³
    Volume of water flows through in t = t × 0.5π m³
    Radius of cylindrical tank (r₂) = 5 m
    Height of cylindrical tank (h₂) = 2 m
    Let the tank will fill completely in t minutes.
    Therefore,
    The volume of water flows out in t minutes = volume of cylindrical tank
    ⇒ t × 0.5π = π ×(r₂)² ×h₂
    ⇒ t × 0.5 = 5² × 2
    ⇒ t = 100
    Hence, the tank will completely fill in 100 minutes.
