Question

The empty gas tank of a truck needs to be completely filled. the tank is shaped like a cylinder that is 3.5 ft long with a diameter of 1.8 ft . suppose gas is poured into the tank at a rate of 2.3 ft3 per minute. how many minutes does it take to fill the empty tank? use the value 3.14 for π , and round your answer to the nearest minute. do not round any intermediate computations.

Answer 1

 .4minute :
V=πr²h
V=π(1.8/2)²(3.5ft)=.9639ft³×1min/2.3ft³=.419 min
