A base of an open rectangular tank is 3.2m by 2.8m. Its height is 2.4m.it contains water to a depth of 1.8m.Calculate the surface area inside the tank that is not in contact with water

Answers

SurfaceArea=BaseArea x Height
A=surface area of the whole tank= 3.2 x 2.8 x 2.4 Answer=21.504m3
B=surface area of the space occupied by water = 3.2 x 2.8 x 1.8 Answer=16.128m3
C=surface area of the space not occupied by water= A-B(21.504m3-16.128m3)

Final Answer= 5.376m3
