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


  • Options
  • A. 75 cubic meter
  • B. 750 cubic meter
  • C. 7500 cubic meter
  • D. 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
