Question

10 Kg/s of a fluid with density 10 Kg/m^3 is passed into a tank of capacity 50 m3, how much time will it take to fill the tank?

(a) 5 Second

(b) 50 Second

(c) 500 Second

(d) 5000 Second

I had been asked this question during an interview.

This key question is from Flow Rate in portion Moles, Density & Concentration of Basic Chemical Engineering

Answer 1

The correct answer is (b) 50 Second

Best explanation: Flow rate of fluid = 10/10 = 1 m^3/s, => Time = 50/1 = 50 second.
