5000 x 1/12 = 416.67 cubic feet
At 7.48 gallons per cubic foot, that is
7.48 x 416.67 = 3117 gallons
A square foot equals an area 12"Wide x 12"Long x 1"Deep. A cubic foot equals an area 12"W x 12"L x 12"D. Therefore, a cubic foot contains 12 square feet. A cubic foot contains 7.48 gallons of water (trust me). You divide a cubic foot by 12 to get 12 square feet, therefore you would divide 7.48 by 12 to get the amount of water contained in 1 square foot. 7.48 divided by 12 equals .623 gallons. For every inch of rainfall there will be .623 gallons of water falling on every square foot.
You can't convert square anything to cubic anything. If that were possible, then you'd be able to figure out how many gallons of carpet it would take to cover the floor in your room.
You would measure the water in a bath tub in gallons.
one mile - 5280 feet one square mile = 5280 x 5280 = 27,878,400 sq ft since 1 inch = 1/12 ft, the total volume of rain is 27,878,400 / 12 = 2,323,200 cubic ft since 1 cu ft contains 7.48 gallons of water, then the totalfgallons is 2,323,200 x 7.48 = 17,377,536 gallons (wow,that is a lot of gallons)
each man would have to get 8 gallons of water so what you could do is fill up the can with 13 gallons and then pour it in the can with 5 gallons till that filled all the way up meaning that the can with 13 gallons of water will now have 13-5 gallons of water witch is 8 gallons
To cover an area of 1 square foot with 1/2 inch of water, you would need 0.623 gallons of water.
A square meter of water would not be measured in gallons, as gallons are a measure of volume, while square meters are a measure of area. It would depend on the depth of the water in the square meter area to calculate the volume in gallons.
how many square feet would 1 gallon of water come on at 1 inch deep?
15.6 gallons
Here is my take: 1 gallon of water equals 231 cubic inches 1 square foot, 1 inch tall equals 144 cubic inches (12"x12"X1") 1 square foot needs 0.624 gallons to equal 1 inch of cover (144 cubic inched divided by 231 cubic inches) 16 square feet would require 9.975 gallons of water to be covered 1 inch deep. (16*0.624) **Runsky**
Around 162,926
6.25 Imperial gallons to the cubic foot 6.25 divided into 48000 would give you 7680 square feet of water. so you could soak a football field
One acre of land is equivalent to 43,560 square feet. With 3 feet of water covering this area, you would have 130,680 cubic feet of water. One cubic foot is equal to 7.48 gallons, so 130,680 cubic feet of water would be about 977,370 gallons.
1 acre is 6,272,640 square inches. Since you want to cover it one inch deep you need 6,272,640 cubic inches of water. There are 231 cubic inches in a gallon. So divide 6,272,640 by 231 and you get 27,154.2857 gallons! HOWEVER: If you want to save water, consider this: When water freezes, it increases in volume about 9%. So if you used ICE to cover your acre and only needed the ice to be 1 inch deep, you could use 9% less water to start with! (I'll let you do the math on that.) Ice is still water, so unless you are asked to use LIQUID water this question has 2 answers.
The weight of water does not depend on the surface area it covers. However, if you are asking about the weight of 55 gallons of water in terms of pounds per square foot, it would depend on the thickness of water over that square foot. Since 1 gallon of water weighs approximately 8.34 pounds, 55 gallons would weigh about 458.7 pounds.
If the oil is barely visible it would take something like 25 gallons to cover one square mile. If the appearance of the oil is of bright bands of colour, then 200 gallons per square mile. Thick oil spills amount to 1330 gallons per square mile
A square foot equals an area 12"Wide x 12"Long x 1"Deep. A cubic foot equals an area 12"W x 12"L x 12"D. Therefore, a cubic foot contains 12 square feet. A cubic foot contains 7.48 gallons of water (trust me). You divide a cubic foot by 12 to get 12 square feet, therefore you would divide 7.48 by 12 to get the amount of water contained in 1 square foot. 7.48 divided by 12 equals .623 gallons. For every inch of rainfall there will be .623 gallons of water falling on every square foot.
