Detailed Solution

It is given rainfall of length 18 m, width 16.5 m and a cylindrical tank of diameter 8 m.
We know,1 m = 100 cm  
Height of water on the roof = 10 cm  
  Height of water on the roof =0.1 m
Since, radius = Diameter 2    So, radius (r) is,
  r= 8 2 r=4m  
Volume of water collected =  l×b×h  
  Volume of water collected =18×16.5×0.1  
  Volume of water collected = 29.7 m 3  
Let h   be the height of the water in the tank.
The volume of water rose up = Volume of water collected = 29.7 m 3  
Since, volume of water rose up = π r 2 h  
Height (h) = Volume π r 2  
h= 29.7 22 7 × 4 2  
h= 29.7×7 22×4×4  
h   =0.5906m   h   =59.06cm                (1m=100cm)
Therefore, the rise of water level in the tank due to rain is 59.06 cm  .
Hence option (1) is correct.
