- In this problem you are asked to investigate how much water a leaky faucet wastes in one week, one month, and one year. Perform an experiment by placing a container under a leaky faucet and actually measure the amount of water accumulated in an hour (you can simulate a leaky faucet by just partially closing the faucet). You are to design the experiment. Think about the parameters that you need to measure. Express and project your findings in gallons/day, gallons/week, gallons/month, and gallons/year. At this rate, how much water is wasted by 10,000,000 households with leaky faucets.
