What is the volume of water collected if the rainfall intensity is 10 millimetres in one hour duration with catchment area of 1 hectare roofing?
every 1mm depth in rain gauge reading is equivalent to 1 liter per square meter, so if the intensity is 10mm/hr, means that the total rainfall in 1 hectare area is 100 cubic meters. from RPAE 006150
How do you find the volume of the cylinder to the nearest tenth use 3.14?
The only way to know for certain how many people will have a problem
How many liters of water will be collected when the rainfall is 100mm in one hour if the catchment area is 200 square meter?
Rainfall of 100 mm means 100 mm depth of rain falls over any area. 1 cu m = 1,000 l 1,000 mm = 1 m Volume = area x depth = 200 sq m x 100 mm = 200 sq m x 100 ÷ 1,000 m = 20 cu m = 20 x 1,000 l = 20,000 litres
Rainfall on a flat rectangular roof 10m by 5.5m flows into a cylindrical tub of a diameter 3m find in cm the increase in depth of the water in the tub caused by a rainfall of 1.2 cm help please?
This is a clever problem. It sounds really complicated, but that's only becauseit's actually two simple problems rolled into one.The two problems are:1). Volume of a rectangular prism2). Volume of a cylinderBefore we get started, let's make sure you remember the formulas for both ofthose volumes:1). Rectangular prism . . . V = (length) x (width) x (height)2). Cylinder . . . Volume = (pi) x (radius)2 x (height)The attack is:-- Figure out the volume of the water that rained onto the roof.-- Realize that the same volume poured into the cylindrical tub.-- Figure out how deep that much water fills the cylinder.At this point, the hard part is done! The problem is as good as solved.-- 1.2 cm of rain falls on the 10m x 5.5m rectangular roof. How much water is sitting on the roof ?Volume = L x W x H = (10m) x (5.5m) x (0.012 m) = 0.66 cubic meter of water-- Now pour that water into the cylinder with 3m diameter. How deep is it ?Volume = (pi) x (radius)2 x (height) .We need to find the height, so solve this formula for the height.Divide each side of equation by (pi) x (radius)2 :Height = Volume / (pi) x (radius)2The volume is the 0.66 m3 that poured off of the roof.The radius is 1/2 of the diameter = 1.5m .So Height = (0.66)/(pi) x (1.5)2 = 0.09337 meter = 9.337 cm.
What 2 ways can you find the volume of a solid object?
multiply it Length- Width - Height , or measure the volume of a container of water then stick the object in and measure the volume of the object+water then subtract the volume of the water then you have the volume
