Concept explainers

Ideal Gas Law

Ideal gas law states that the product of pressure and volume of a gas directly varies with the product of the number of moles, the universal gas constant, and the temperature of the gas.

Water is leaking out of an inverted conical tank at a rate of 6200 cubic centimeters per min at the same time that water is being pumped into the tank at a constant rate. The tank has height 15 meters and the diameter at the top is 4.5 meters. If the water level is rising at a rate of 22 centimeters per minute when the height of the water is 4.5 meters, find the rate at which water is being pumped into the tank in cubic centimeters per minute. cm³ min
