Question

THE RAINFALL ON A CERTAIN DAY WAS 5CM. FIND THE VOLUME OF WATER THAT FELL ON A 2 HECTARE FEILD

Answer 1

Area of field = 2 hectares

= 2* 10,000

= 20,000 m

Height of waterfall = 5 cm

= 5/100 m

= 1/20 m

Volume of water = Area of field *Height of rainfall

= 20000 /20

= 1000 m^3

= 1000 * 1000 litres

= 10,00,000 litres
