There are far too many variables to say. The answer to this will be relative to your location, and you would need to take some measurements in your local area. The best way to calculate this would be to take a sample (say 1 foot square) and multiply your results by the number of square feet in one acre. A suggested means would be to use a rain gauge with a 1 foot square funnel, to measure total rain fallen on the area. then you would need to ascertain the drop size. I would use a sheet of tissue paper, weigh it, then allow it to be hit by a single drop of average size, and then re-weigh. 1 gram will equal 1 milliliter, and thus you can work out how many drops by dividing your total water in your sample area. You may want to use a normal rain gauge in addition to this in order to get an accurate idea of when you achieve a 1 inch rainfall.

How much rain is 1 inch over 1 acre?

How many square yards are there in one acre?

1 acre = 4,840 square yards1 chain = 22 yards 1 sq chain = 22 times 22 sq yd = 484 sq yd1 acre = 10 sq chains = 4,840 square yardsAnother way to figure it outFirst, keep in mind that an acre is a unit of area, whereas the inch, foot, yard, rod, chain, and mileare all units of length. (Never say, "square acre," because there is no such thing as an acre. The acre is already a unit of area.) Second, there are 640 acres to the square mile, so if you know how many square yards are contained in a square mile, then you can easily figure out the answer you seek using simple division.One mile equals 1760 yards, so a square mile equals 1760 yards times 1760 yards, which is 3,097,600 square yards. Now, divide that number by 640 and you get 4,840 square yards per acre.1 acre = 4,840.0021 square yards1 acre = 4840 square yards1 acre = 4840 sq yards4840


The national debt is approaching 10 Trillion dollars If you had an acre of land of 100 dollar bills equal to your national debt how high in would your money be?

Given that it takes about 10 bills to make a square foot and an acre of land is 43,560 square feet. So individual 100 dollar bills on an acre would total 43,560,000. (1000x43,560). 10 trillion divided by 43,560,000 equals 229,568. Given that a stack of 100 bills equals one half of an inch and 229,568 stacks would give you 2295.68 halves of an inch. 2295.68 divided by 24 would give you the amount of feet=approx 96 feet


How many gallon of water in 1 inch rainfall per square foot of roof?

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.

How many gallons is 1 inch of rain to a acre?

Well, you know there are 43,560 square feet in an acre, and you know there are 12 inches to a foot. The next clue you need is a conversion factor from volume in gallons to the units of area, which in this case is inches; so, there are 231 cubic inches to a gallon. You now have all the information you need to algebraically determine the number of gallons in an acre inch.
