The maximum daily demand of a city is 24*105 and the rate of filtratio...
Explanation: Maximum daily demand = 24*105
Rate of filtration = 100
Area of filter=Maximum daily demand/Rate of filtration=24*105/(100*24)
=1000m2.

The maximum daily demand of a city is 24*105 and the rate of filtratio...
To find the area of the filter, we need to calculate the flow rate required to meet the maximum daily demand of the city and then use the given filtration rate to determine the filter area.
1. Calculate the flow rate required:
The maximum daily demand of the city is given as 24*105 (24 hours multiplied by 105 liters). Therefore, the maximum daily demand is 2,520,000 liters.
2. Convert the flow rate to liters per hour:
Since the filtration rate is given in liters per hour, we need to convert the maximum daily demand from liters per day to liters per hour. To do this, divide the maximum daily demand by 24 (hours in a day).
2,520,000 liters / 24 hours = 105,000 liters per hour
3. Calculate the area of the filter:
The given filtration rate is 100 liters per hour per m2. This means that for every hour, 100 liters can be filtered through 1 square meter of the filter.
To find the area of the filter, divide the flow rate required (105,000 liters per hour) by the filtration rate (100 liters per hour per m2):
105,000 liters per hour / 100 liters per hour per m2 = 1050 m2
Therefore, the area of the filter is 1050 square meters.
Hence, the correct answer is option C) 1000.
