Question

in one fortnight of a given month there was a rainfall of 10cm in a river valley. if the area of the valley is 7280 km square, show that the total rainfall was approximately equivalent to the addition to the normal water of three rivers each 1072 kilometre long 75M wide and 3M Deep

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the valley =97280 km²

Height of rainfall in valley = 10cm = 10 × 10⁻⁶ = 10⁻⁵ km

Now, volume of rain water in valley = area of the valley × height of rainfall into valley = 97280 × 10⁻⁵ km³ = 0.9728 km³

Volume of water in valley 0.9728 km³ in 14days [ according to question ]

So, volume of water in valley in 1 day = 0.9728/14 ≈ 0.7 km³

Now, volume of each river = length × Breadth × height

= 1072km × 75m × 3m

= 1072 × 75 × 10⁻³ × 3 × 10⁻³ km³

= 0.2412 km³

So, volume of 3 rivers = 3 × volume of each river

= 3 × 0.2412 km³

= 0.7236 km³ ≈ 0.7 km³

Here it is clear that approximately volume of water in valley {means volume of rainfall water } = volume of water in 3 rivers
