Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : 15 min Given: A tap having a diameter d can empty a tank in 60 min Calculation: The area of a tap is proportional to Work done by pipe When the diameter is double, then the area will be four times. So, will work four times faster Hence required time taken to empty the tank = 60 × 1/4 ⇒ 15 mins ∴ The required answer is 15 mins. |
