Here are the answers to today’s practice problem.1. Using the same rectangular (4 feet by 7 feet) and circular (5-foot diameter) pump tanks from last month, if the alarm float has a minimum 5-inch swing to set off the alarm, determine how many gallons will accumulate before the alarm is tripped.Answer: For the rectangular tank, the gallons per inch was calculated as 17.5 gallons per inch. The gallons accumulated are 17.5 gallons per inch x 5 inches = 87.5 gallons or rounded off to 88 gallons.For the circular tank, the gallons per inch is 12.5, so 12.5 gallons per inch x 5 inches
