Correct Answer 16 <span style="">m</span><span style=" line-height: 0; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; top: -0.5em; font-size:10.5px;">3</span>/sec

The flow rate in a water pipe is given as:

Flow rate = Total volumetric flow in a water pipe/ Total time taken to pass through the pipe

Given:

Total volumetric flow in a water pipe = 256 m3 

Total time taken to pass through the pipe = 16 seconds

Hence,

Flow rate = 256 m3 / 16 sec

Flow rate = 16 m3/sec

In the following question, two statements are numbered as A and B. On solving these statements, we get quantities A and B respectively. Solve both quantities and choose the correct option. Quantity A: Pipe A takes thrice the time taken by Pipe B to fill a tank. Together they can fill the tank in 15 hours, tank A and B is opened together for 4 hours and then Pipe A is closed and after 2 more hours Pipe B is closed and an outlet Pipe C is opened which when working alone can empty the tank in 10 hours. Calculate the time taken by C to empty the tank. Quantity B: A pipe A can fill the tank in 10 hours another pipe B can fill the tank in 15 hours and with the help of third pipe C they can fill the tank in 5 hours. Pipe A is opened for 4 hours then it is closed, pipe B is closed 3 hours before filling of tank and tank C is opened the whole time. Calculate the time taken to fill the tank

Time taken by pipe A and pipe B to fill up the cistern is 12 minutes whereas time taken by pipe C to empty the whole cistern is twice that of time taken by A and B together to fill the tank and ratio of time taken by pipe A and B to fill up the tank when operating alone is 2 : 3. If pipe A and B are alternatively opened every 6 minutes and C is opened with pipe B but closed when pipe A is opened then calculate total time taken to fill up the whole cistern. 
Four pipes P, Q, R and S are connected to a tank. Pipe P, Q, R and S can fill the whole tank in 300/37 minutes. Ratio of time taken by pipe P to fill the tank when operating alone and pipe Q to fill the tank when operating alone is 3 : 2, pipe Q is 20% more efficient then pipe R and time taken by pipe S is 10 minutes more than pipe R. Find difference between time taken by pipe Q and pipe P to fill up the tank alone. 
Find the appropriate relation for quantity 1 and quantity 2 in the following question: An artificial kund is filled by three pipes with uniform flow. The first two pipes operating simultaneously fill the kund at the same time during which the kund is filled by the third pipe alone. The second pipe fills the kund 5 hours faster than the first pipe and 4 hours slower than the third pipe. Quantity 1: The time required by the first pipe? Quantity 2: Time taken by all three pipes to fill the Kund simultaneously
Two pipes are connected to tank 1 and one pipe connects tank 1 and tank 2 at the bottom of both tanks. At first pipe A and pipe B will filling tank 1 and then pipe C would be opened to fill tank 2. Capacity of tank 1 is twice capacity of tank 2. Pipe C takes 8 minutes to fill the whole tank 2 wherein discharging capacity of pipe C is 62.5 liters per minute. Ratio of time taken by pipe A and B to fill the tank when operating alone is 4 : 5 then find approximate discharging capacity of pipe A and B in liters/ minute if both the pipes discharge equal amount of water in tank. Time taken by pipe A and B to fill the tank 1 is 20/ 3 minutes
A container of 425 liters was filled with chemicals through two pipes. The first pipe was kept open for 5 hours more than the second pipe. If the first pipe remains open for as long as the second pipe remains open, and the second pipe remains open for as long as the first pipe remains open, then the quantity of chemical filled by the first pipe was half the quantity of chemical filled by the second pipe. If both the pipes are opened simultaneously, the tank will be filled in 17 hours. For how long was the second pipe open?
A Time taken by pipe P and Q to fill the tank is 120/23 minutes. Time taken by drain pipe S to empty the tank is 12 minutes more than pipe P to fill the tank. Time taken by pipe Q is 15 minutes. Ratio of time taken by R to fill up the tank and by pipe Q is 4 : 5. What is total time taken to fill the whole tank when all the pipes are open? 
Pipe A is 40% more efficient then pipe E, Pipe B requires 4 minutes less to fill up the tank alone then pipe E, ratio of time taken by Pipe C and pipe A is 5 : 6, pipe C requires 15 minutes to empty the whole tank, if all the pipes are opened together then it requires 48/ 11 minutes to fill up the whole tank. Find the ratio of time taken by pipe B and pipe C to fill up the tank alone.
In the following question, two statements are numbered as A and B. On solving these statements, we get quantities A and B respectively. Solve both quantities and choose the correct option. Quantity A: There are two inlet pipes A, B and two outlet pipes C, D inlet pipe B takes 7 hours more to fill the tank when compared to A. Two outlet pipes when working together can empty the tank in 3.5 hours and efficiency of both the pipe is same if all of them working together can fill the tank in 2 hours. Calculate the time taken by A to fill the tank. Quantity B: The ratio of efficiencies of two pipes A and B is in the ratio 3 ∶ 2 and that of pipe B and C is 1 ∶ 3. Pipe A and B are inlet pipes, pipe C is outlet pipe working together they can fill the tank in 7.5 hours. Calculate the time taken by A to fill the tank when working alone.
