Water is supplied to a tank measuring 200 m by 150 m through a rectangular pipe with dimensions 1.5 m by 1.25 m. If water flows through the pipe at a speed of 20 km/h, how long will it take for the water level in the tank to rise by 2 meters?

Explanation

Given the pipe's cross-sectional area and flow velocity, the volume of water entering the tank per minute can be calculated. Using the tank's surface area, the time required for the water level to increase by 2 meters is found to be 96 minutes.
