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

75 cubic meter
750 cubic meter
7500 cubic meter
75000 cubic meter

Correct Answer: 750 cubic meter

Explanation:

1 hectare = 10,000 Sq.m

So, Area = (1.5 x 10000) Sq.m

Depth = 5/100 m = 1/20 m

Therefore, Volume = Area X Depth = 15000 x (1/20)= 750 cu.m
