An empty corn silo in the shape of a cylinder is being filled with corn

Sagot :

The percent of the silo filled with corn at 10 hours is 90.98%.

What is silo?

Silos are used in order to maximize the grain storage life and preserve them. They are round and tall towers with high capacity for commercial or industrial purposes.  

As the silo is in shape of cylinder, volume of the cylinder is

V = πr²h

where r = d/2 = 19/2 =9.5 ft

and h = 32 ft

Substitute the values, we get the volume of silo,

V = 3.14 x (9.5)² x 32 = 9068.32 ft³

The silo is filled with the constant rate. After 10 hours, in silo, the amount of corn will be gone doubled as compared to that of in 5 hours.

Amount of corn after 10 hours = 4125 x 2 = 8250 ft³

Percentage of silo filled in 10 hours = (amount after 10 hrs / total amount) x 100

Substitute the values, we get

=(8250 /9068.32 ) x 100 %

=90.98 %

Thus, the percent of the silo filled with corn at 10 hours is 90.98%.
