5 mm?
lots. but 100mm of rain will fill any regular shaped (cylindrical) container 100mm. so a 200mmx100mm container in 100mm rain will collect 2 litres (100x100x200=2000000mm³=2l)
The volume is pi x diameter squared times height//4 The volume collected is 5mm x 100 mm x 100 mm x 3.14/4 = 39250 cu mm = 39.25 cu cm keep in mind that the rain measurement is still 5mm independent of volume collected.
It varies tremendously from one part of the world to another
