question

A planning engineer for a new alum plant must present some estimates to his company regarding the capacity of a silo designed to contain bauxite ore until it is processed into alum. The ore resembles pink talcum powder and is poured from a conveyor at the top of the silo. The silo is a cylinder 100ft100 \mathrm{ft} high with a radius of 200ft200 \mathrm{ft}. The conveyor carries ore at a rate of $60,000 \pi \mathrm{~ft}^3 / \mathrm{h}$ and the ore maintains a conical shape whose radius is 1.5 times its height. If, at a certain time tt, the pile is 60ft60 \mathrm{ft} high, how long will it take for the pile to reach the top of the silo?
