Question
The apparent depth of water in cylindrical water tank of diameter 2R cm is reducing at the rate of x cm/minute when water is being drained out a constant rate. the amount of water drained in c.c.per minute is :(n1 = refractive index of water)
Options
A.

B.

C.

D.πR2x
Solution
if apparent deth = dA and real depth = dR
⇒ dA =
dR
ᐃdA =
ᐃdR ......(i)
Now,V = πR2dR
ᐃV = πR2ᐃdR
ᐃd2 =
Putting it in equation (i)
ᐃdA =
⇒ ᐃV =
πR2
⇒ dA =
dRᐃdA =
ᐃdR ......(i)Now,V = πR2dR
ᐃV = πR2ᐃdR
ᐃd2 =

Putting it in equation (i)
ᐃdA =
⇒ ᐃV =
