Answer 2

Answer: Rainfall is the most common form of precipitation. It is usually measured in millimetres. Annual rainfall is generally expressed in centimetre. Suppose the weather report in newspaper says that 15 millimetres of rainfall occurred in a town on a particular day this means if the rain falling in that town on that day were allowed to collect over a plane surface the level of rainwater that suffers would be 15 millimetres high.

Generally the rain falling over an area does not get a chance to collect it either seeps into the soil flows into water bodies or evaporates. The amount of rainfall at a place over a particular period is measured with the help of a rain gauge . A " rain gauge" consists of a cylindrical fitted with a collecting funnel at the bottom and a funnel at the top. Rain falls into the funnel and gets collected in the vessel below at the end of the day of the period of time for which the rainfall is being measured, the rain water collected in the vessel is poured into a measuring jar to find out the amount of rainfall.
