Answer

Given,

Volume of water (V) = 2.6 m3

Base area (A) = 6500 cm2

= 650010000\dfrac{6500}{10000} = 0.65 m2.

Let the depth of the water be 'd'.

Calculating the depth of the water,

Volume of water = Base area × Depth of water

⇒ 2.6 = 0.65 × d

⇒ d = 2.60.65\dfrac{2.6}{0.65} = 4 m.

Hence, option 2 is the correct option.
