A detention basin with dimensions of width, 20 m, length, 85 m and maximum height, 4 m, receives water from an inflow hydrograph of total volume 14000 m3. The volume of water in it when the water depth is 2.5 m is 4250 m3 O 14000 m3 (the value of the inflow hydrograph) 6800 m3, because the volume of the inflow hydrograph exceeds the maximum volume of the basin O 2550 m3 [= 85 x 20 x (4 - 2.5)]
