The diagram shows a water container in the shape of a triangular prism of length 120 cm.The vertical cross-section is an equilateral triangle. Water is poured into the container at a rate of 24 cm3/s. Show that the volume of water in the container, V cm3, is given by V=403h2, where h cm is the height of the water in the container.
