Compute the change in water storage of surface water system of university of Goroka which precipitation of 2000mm, evaporation of 50cm, and transportation of half of the rate of evaporation. Neglect ground water flow in the stream and surface water flows into was flow in to system is equivalent to the following from the system. Assume that the soil in the areais saturated all throughout.
To compute the change in water storage in the surface water system of the University of Goroka, we need to consider the precipitation, evaporation, and transportation rates.
Given:
Precipitation = 2000 mm
Evaporation = 50 cm
Transportation = (1/2) * Evaporation
First, we need to convert the precipitation and evaporation values to the same unit of measurement. Since the transportation rate is already in centimeters, we will convert mm to cm.
1 mm = 0.1 cm
Therefore,
Precipitation = 2000 mm * 0.1 cm/mm = 200 cm
Now, we can calculate the change in water storage using the formula:
Change in Water Storage = Precipitation – Evaporation – Transportation
Change in Water Storage = 200 cm – 50 cm – (1/2)*50 cm
Change in Water Storage = 200 cm – 50 cm – 25 cm
Change in Water Storage = 125 cm
Therefore, the change in water storage of the surface water system of the University of Goroka is 125 cm.
To compute the change in water storage of the surface water system at the University of Goroka, we need to consider the inputs and outputs of water in the system.
Given:
Precipitation = 2000mm
Evaporation = 50cm
Transportation = 0.5 * Evaporation
First, let's convert the units so they are consistent:
Precipitation = 2000 mm = 200 cm
Evaporation = 50 cm
Transportation = 0.5 * 50 cm = 25 cm
Next, we need to calculate the total inputs and outputs:
Total Inputs = Precipitation
Total Outputs = Evaporation + Transportation
Total Inputs = 200 cm
Total Outputs = 50 cm + 25 cm = 75 cm
Now, let's calculate the change in water storage:
Change in Water Storage = Total Inputs - Total Outputs
Change in Water Storage = 200 cm - 75 cm = 125 cm
Therefore, the change in water storage in the surface water system at the University of Goroka is 125 cm.
To compute the change in water storage of the surface water system of the University of Goroka, we need to consider the inputs and outputs of the system. Here are the given values:
Precipitation = 2000 mm
Evaporation = 50 cm
Transportation = 1/2 of the evaporation rate
To find the change in water storage, we need to calculate the total input and output of the system. In this case, the input is the precipitation, and the outputs are evaporation and transportation.
1. Convert the units:
- Convert precipitation from millimeters (mm) to centimeters (cm): 2000 mm = 200 cm.
- Convert evaporation from centimeters (cm) to centimeters (cm): 50 cm.
2. Calculate the total output of the system:
- Evaporation: 50 cm.
- Transportation: 1/2 of the evaporation rate = 1/2 * 50 cm = 25 cm.
- Total output = Evaporation + Transportation = 50 cm + 25 cm = 75 cm.
3. Calculate the total input of the system:
- Precipitation: 200 cm.
4. Calculate the change in water storage:
- Change in water storage = Total input - Total output = 200 cm - 75 cm = 125 cm.
Therefore, the change in water storage of the surface water system of the University of Goroka is 125 cm.
