Rain that fell and filled up one centimeter of the ground
Was there rain in the garden of Eden?
The Garden of Eden is a spiritual place, not a geographical one. If you think rain is good, then of course it rains there. If you think rain is bad, then of course it does not.On a Biblical note-no there wasn't. "Rain" was not used/created until the flooding of the earth. It was not in the original intent of God's plan (Eden).Genesis 2: 4-6 (NIV)This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created. When the LORD God made the earth and the heavens and no shrub of the field had yet appeared on the earth and no plant of the field had yet sprung up, for the LORD God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no man to work the ground, 6 but streams came up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground" (NIV)The word "streams" has also been translated as "mist." So, instead of rain there was a mist that came up from the ground to water everything.
Why does one inch in an official rain gauge actually measure only one tenth of an inch of rain?
The inner container is tall and narrow, but 1 inch in the inner container is only 1/10 inch of rain. This makes it possible to obtain very accurate measurements--to 1/100 of an inch--of the amount of rainfall.
If the probability of rain is 0.99 what is the probability of no rain?
The probability of no rain is the complement of the probability of rain. If the probability of rain is 0.99, then the probability of no rain is calculated as 1 - 0.99, which equals 0.01. Therefore, there is a 1% chance of no rain.
