The figure shows a sealed bottle of height 35 cm. It is made from two containers. The top container is in the form of a cuboid with a square base. The bottom container is in the form of a cube of side 20cm. The height of the water in the bottle (shown in Figure A) is 18 cm.

When the same bottle is turned upside down (shown in Figure B), the height of the water in the bottle is 29 cm. How much water can the sealed bottle hold if it is completely filled?

A rectangular tank measuring 120 cm by 50 cm by 100 cm is 50% filled with water. 10 identical pails of water that are completely filled are then scooped out from it. The water level drops to 45 cm. The remaining amount of water in the tank is later poured into a container that contains 40 litres of water. The water is then drained out through a tap found at the bottom of the container at 10 litres per minute.
  1. What is the capacity of each pail?
  2. How long did it take to drain the water from the container completely? Answer in terms of minutes.
