An amount of 4.5 cm of water evaporated from a 150-hectare vertical walled reservoir for two days. Storm water was added to the reservoir at a constant rate of 5.5 m/s during this period. i) Compute the volume of water released during the period if the water level in the reservoir was the same at the beginning and at the end of the day. Give the answer in hectare-cm. ii) The rate of water consumption recommended by the United Nations per individual is 165 liter per day. Based on the total volume of water lost in QI(c)(i), estimate the total person that lost the opportunity to use this water.

(c) An amount of 4.5 cm of water evaporated from a 150-hectare vertical walled
reservoir for two days. Storm water was added to the reservoir at a constant rate
of 5.5 m/s during this period.
i)
Compute the volume of water released during the period if the water
level in the reservoir was the same at the beginning and at the end of the
day. Give the answer in hectare-cm.
ii) The rate of water consumption recommended by the United Nations per
individual is 165 liter per day. Based on the total volume of water lost in
Q1(c)(i), estimate the total person that lost the opportunity to use this
water.
