Answer:

r=\sqrt{10}\text{ m}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that when a cylindrical tank is filled with water at a rate of 22 cubic meters per hour, the level of water in the tank rises at a rate of 0.7 meters per hour. We are asked to find the approximate radius of tank in meters.

We will use volume of cylinder formula to solve our given problem as:

V=\pi r^2h, where,

r = Radius,

h = Height of cylinder.

Since the level of water in the tank rises at a rate of 0.7 meters per hour, so height of cylinder would be h = 0.7 meters at V=22\text{ m}^3.

Upon substituting these values in above formula, we will get:

22\text{ m}^3=\frac{22}{7}\cdot r^2(0.7\text{ m})

22\text{ m}^3=\frac{22}{10}\cdot r^2\text{ m}

\frac{10}{22}\cdot\frac{22\text{ m}^3}{\text{m}}=r^2

r^2=\frac{10}{22}\cdot\frac{22\text{ m}^3}{\text{m}}

r^2=10\text{ m}^2

Now, we will take positive square root of both sides as radius cannot be negative.

\sqrt{r^2}=\sqrt{10\text{ m}^2}

r=\sqrt{10}\text{ m}

Therefore, radius of tank would be approximately square root of 10 m.

A sphere and a right cylinder have the same radius and volume. The cylinder has a height of 6 centimeters. What is the radius?

You are going to solve this in such a quick, slick way
that you will blink and not believe it.  Fasten your seat belt.

Here are the tools you'll need:

--  Volume of a cylinder  =  (pi) (radius)² (height)

--  Volume of a sphere  =  (4/3) (pi) (radius)³

Now ... the question says that your cylinder and your sphere
have the same volume.  Fine !  So you can immediately write
an equation saying that their volumes are equal.

                               (pi) (radius)² (height)  =  (4/3) (pi) (radius)³

Divide each side by pi:    (radius)² (height)  =  (4/3)       (radius)³

Divide each side by (radius)²        (height)  =  (4/3)        (radius)

Fill in the given height:                  (6 cm)    =  (4/3)      (radius)

Multiply each side by  3/4 :    (6 cm) x (3/4)  =             radius

I'm pretty sure that you can take over now and find the radius.
