Water flows out a pipe at a rate of 40pi cm cube per second into an empty cylindrical container of base radius 4cm find the height of water in the container after 4 seconds.
--------
40pi cc/sec * 4 sec = 160*pi cc
============
Notice that including the units might help.
=============================
For the cylinder:
Vol+=+pi%2Ar%5E2%2Ah+=+160
r = 4
Vol+=+pi%2A16%2Ah+=+160%2Api
h+=+160%2Api%2F%2816%2Api%29
h = 10 cm
