Water in a storage tank 25 feet in diameter and 30 ft deep rises 1.8 feet in one hour.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find the no. of hrs to fill at 1.8 ft/hr rise
\n" ); document.write( "\"30%2F1.8\" = 16\"2%2F3\" hrs
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find the number gallons in the full tank (g); (7.481 gal in 1 cu/ft)
\n" ); document.write( "g = \"pi%2A12.5%5E2%2A30%2A7.481\"
\n" ); document.write( "g = 110,167 gallons
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "What is the Gallons per Minute (GPM) flow into the tank.
\n" ); document.write( "change 16\"2%2F3\" hrs to minutes: 60*16,66667 = 1000 minutes
\n" ); document.write( "\"110166.8%2F1000\" ~ 110 gal/min\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " How long will it take to fill from empty? 16 hrs, 40 min
