Pipe A can fill an empty tank in 6 hours and pipe B in 8 hours. If both the pipes are opened and after 2 hours pipe. A is closed, how much time B will take to fill the remaining tank?
D.
Part filled by A and B together in first 2 hours
Remaining part =
This part shall be filled by pipe B
∴ Required time to fill the remaining tank by B
A water tap fills a tub in 'p' hours and a sink at the bottom empties it in 'q' hours. If p < q and both tap and sink are open, the tank is filled in 'r' hours; then
r = p +q
r = p +q
Two pipes P and Q can fill a cistern in 12 and 15 min, respectively. If both are opened together and at the end of 3 min, the first is closed. How much longer will the cistern take to fill?
5 min
