Water in a canal 3m wide and 1.2 m deep


Asked by admin @ in Math viewed by 349 People


water in canal 3m wide and 1.2m deep flowing with a speed of 10 km/hr. how much area will it irrigate in 30 minutes if 8cm of standing water is required?

Answered by admin @



Given, width d canal = 30 dm = 300 cm = 3m  [1 dm = 10 cm and 1 m = 100 cm]

Depth of canal = 12 dm = 120 cm = 1.2 m

Given, water is flowing with velocity of 10 km/h.

∴ Length of water column formed in 1/2 hour=1/2*10

 = 5 km = 5000 m

Hence volume of water flowing in 1/2hour

= Volume of cuboid of length 5000 m, width 3m and depth 1.2m

= 5000 × 3 × 1.2 m3 = 18000 m3

Let A m2 be the area irrigated in 1/2hour then,

x × 8 cm = 18000 m3

x=225000m squate



Hence, the canal irrigates 225000 m2 area in 1/2hour.
