A tank that is a right rectangular prism is 1m x 2m x 3m. Suppose the tank is exactly half full of water and then a heavy metal sphere of radius 30 cm is put into the tank. How high is the water now if the height of the tank is 3m?
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "The volume of water in the tank is the area of the bottom x depth of the water.
\n" ); document.write( "= 100*200 sq cm * depth
\n" ); document.write( "The volume of the sphere
\n" ); document.write( "= 4*pi*r^3/3 cc
\n" ); document.write( "= 113097 cc
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "The tank is 1/2 full, then 113097 cc are added.
\n" ); document.write( "V1 = 100*200*150 cc = 3000000 cc
\n" ); document.write( "+ 113097 --> 3113097 cc
\n" ); document.write( "Depth = 3113097/20000
\n" ); document.write( "Depth = 155.65 cm
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
