  1. Given data,

    Length of the field, l = 35 m,

    Width of the field, b = 22 m,

    Depth of the well, H = 8 m

    Radius of the well, R = 14/2 = 7 m,

    the rise in the level of the field be h

     Area of the rectangle = Length x Breadth

    = 35 x 22

    = 770 m²

    Area of the well  = πR²

    = π(7)²

    = 154 m²

    Area of the rectangle without well = Area of the rectangle – Area of the well

    = 770 – 154

    = 616 m²

    ∴ Amount of the dug = πR²H

    = π(7)²(8)

    = 1232 m³

    Raise in height  = Volume ÷ area

    = 1232 ÷ 616

    = 2 m

    ∴ 2 m height raise
