Volume 22Q

22. In a shower, 5 cm of rain falls. The volume of water that falls on 1.5 hectares of ground is:

     A.   75 cu. m

     B.   750 cu. m

     C.   7500 cu. m

     D.   75000 cu. M

Answer:

Option : B 

1 hectare = 10,000 m²

So, Area = (1.5 x 10000) m² = 15000 m².

⇒	Depth	=		5		m	=		1		m
				100					20

	Volume	=	(Area x Depth)	=		15000 x	1		m3	=	750 m3
							20
